I went to sleep last night without doing any further work or exercise. The cat nested between my legs as I laid by my wife to see her to sleep, and I didn't fight against it once he settled in. I seem to have needed the rest.

I noticed some green stalks growing from the gutters on my garage, so I remembered to get on a ladder and getting the junk uprooted after I mowed the lawn. Once I was at a proper vantage, I saw that simply going up on the ladder to reach for the vegetation in individual trips was going to take entirely too long, so I went up onto the roof. It's a good thing that I did, because there was congestion on all four sides of the roof and around the downspouts in the gutters, which held in a substantial amount of standing water. I'm lucky that I didn't have mosquito hives infested around all of it.

This news came out today: http://www.konami.jp/am/locationtest/bm2dx21/ . Long live IIDX.

A movie on YT made me recall that Idolmaster 2 came out on PS3, and I wondered how pricing on the game remained. As it turns out, there was a Best reprint of it, and Amazon had sellers which were able to supply it to the US for normal prices (more so considering we have Amazon Prime now). So on impulse, I decided to get the game. Approximate total for the game and two-day shipping was $50. I popped it in to get the patches and installation done and gave it a small start. Seems fine so far. As reported, there's tons of DLC and the prices for the items are hilarious. The prices I see on individual new outfits range from $10 to $15. Suffice to say, I won't be indulging in it any time soon. Meanwhile I'll see about continuing the game in the near future and determine if the actual game itself is worth a damn.

Nothing too good or bad came with today's song session, and I almost had a day where I finally didn't have a single increase - but A came in at the end to give me a lift. The streak and tension continues. Passing Watch Out afterward was rather satisfactory as well, considering that doing so isn't guaranteed.
