    Maybe 6. Im back to college and learning precalc after being out of school for like 10+ years. A lot of relearning old stuff and learning new stuff at the same time.

    It makes me anxious honestly.

      Where would you place your ‘badassary’ on the scale today?

        Too Low to brag, high enough to know that, I think that’s a perfect 5

    3, maybe a 3.5.

    I was reasonably productive today, but still have a lot to get done and I am procrastinating.

      Take it or leave it insight: I have learned that procrastination can be chalked up to two things. 1. You don’t know where to start on said thing and perhaps feel overwhelmed by it. 2. You don’t know how to break down the objective into more manageable steps. And so you put it off ‘until you feel like you have a clue.’

      An old saying that strongly applies here. “How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.”

      ROFL. You can’t win them all champ. Keep going though. Greatness is achieved when you push further than what others are willing to do.

      Oh that’s rad! I figure since you’re in IT, you don’t get much appreciation. But I for one, am very thankful for all that the IT team(s) do. It’s all fun and games until you can’t access your server data that’s crucial to your job. o7

      Hahaha. Putting yourself in another world (and one where you’re stronger or have special abilities,) is a nice way to escape the worries of the day.

      Have you tried beating up some monsters with a spoon yet? haha

    I rescued an injured bird (a collared dove) with a broken wing and took him to a bird sanctuary about 40 miles away. So 10, clearly.

      My goodness! I’m glad things went well during the open heart surgery. How long is the recovery for such a thing?

        Pretty sure it’s lifetime. Surgery was at the end of 2018, they cracked me open like a lobster. I’ve got a 10" scar from just under my chin to just over my belly button.

        2019 was one complication after another.

        2nd heart attack in January.

    I overcame my social anxiety today and went to the office after a long period of sickness and it was great! I really missed seeing other people than my wife for a change! :D In the evening I ran my pathfinder campaign and it went really well, save for some hiccups from foundry, which is the online tool that we are using, so maybe an 8?

      Oh that’s awesome! Social anxiety ain’t no joke. Glad to hear that you’re doing better. It’s really fun to play TTRPGs. Especially with a good group of people.

      Are you running a pre-made or home-brew campaign? I’m interested to hear more.

    0, badass is not something I’ve ever felt, nor particularly strived for.

    I’m more of a goodie-two-shoes people pleaser type.

      Oh dang. Well life in the end, isn’t just about what others get out of it. It’s also what you get out of it. Don’t sell yourself short. Everyone deserves to feel badass at least once in their life imo.

    Was at 10 yesterday, since I was playing Arkham Shadow and you don’t get much more badass than being Batman.

    Today it’s 1. My whole body hurts. The one point comes from me not oversleeping this morning.
