The discipline I currently lack is that I willingly let myself sleep in on days where I know I'll have something to do after waking up, or at least not prioritizing things properly so that I can assuredly get my exercise done immediately and then get on with the rest of my day. Today's example is that I was up until 4AM with friends on D3, then was woken up at 11AM so that my wife and I could attend a showing of the second Hobbit movie. After doing that and spending the rest of the day so far on setting the new stereo up, dinner, IIDX, and writing this, I now see that I'll likely not allow myself to do exercise for the rest of the day. Missing a day here and there isn't going to crash my world, but I'd prefer to not let it happen. By the way, that Hobbit movie; I come away with it not very impressed, mostly because I feel like I've seen it all before. The hectic battles, the elegant swashbuckling combat, the epic settings, the sweeping overhead pans of untamed lands, and so on - as I watch it I think little more than it all feeling so very familiar.

I received a response today from the IRS; more accurately, I didn't receive a receipt of my mailing them the issue until today, and then I received a response later today. I wish I could have bet that the first response would have not helped, as yet again the initial reply I receive is someone telling me that a Form is required in the test return which isn't listed in the testing Publication.

As it turns out, we received a bill today which is in respect of the temporary cellphone contract that my wife's Australian friend had while she was here, so I'll need to take the time tomorrow to be on the phone to see how I can get it resolved. The idle time I'll have while on the phone will be enough to let me respond to the IRS and await their next volley.

Songs. Today's session was pretty good. There were a few strange moments like my failing Twinbee Generation X, but at the other end of the spectrum I felt that my play of Reflection into the Eden was at a new best as I was going through the chart, and the resultant graph shown that my score was higher than the old record basically at every measure.

Lunar Beat. Extra Mode. Double play. "@" denotes Random chart modifier. All songs are of highest difficulty type unless specified.
First line, by column; song title, EX score percentage and letter grade rank, EX score value and pass/fail, judgment readout (just great, great, good, bad poor), highest combo reached, note count of chart under Extra Mode, original note count of chart, percentage increase of Extra Mode notes over original note count, timestamp.
Second line, by column; pass count / play count, EX score percentage difference from record, EX score value difference from record, judgment readout difference from record (if current play is new record), highest combo reached difference from record (if current play is new record), timestamp of old record (if current play is new record).
