(Name that roguelike, get a bunch of cooked lizards!) The interesting thing about the "unremarkable" dungeon is that it's really not unremarkable at all, but it certainly can feel that way. These goals aren't all that "special": watch what I eat, exercise regularly, and do something other than stare at a computer screen all day every day (and use that time in front a screen productively). Last challenge I think I tried to take on too little in terms of health/fitness and too much in terms of Real Life Improvement. Also, my birthday is near the end of this challenge. LET'S DO THIS. 1. Relentlessly track food: everything that isn't water or unsweetened tea that passes through my mouth should be recorded. I find that just keeping myself accountable tends to keep me in line in terms of goals - I don't eat huge enough meals to worry about the nitty-gritty of counting exactly how much rice I eat with my family, but if I'm not tracking that yes, I did eat many tiny chocolates today, that's where I go wrong. Tracking can be here or on my challenge Twitter, but I should be reporting here at the end of each day. +3 CON 2. Angry Birds three times a week, combined with Molding Mobility and Starting Stretching for their warmups and cooldowns. Self-explainatory. Deceptively simple. My body is ready. I did MM and SS regularly for a week last time as an Assassin Mini-Challenge and I'm ready for them to be part of my daily life. +3 STR +3 DEX Spreadsheet here. 3. Morning and evening skincare and dental care every day this challenge. Just like last time. +3 CHA 4. Do up to three productive things every day, and keep track. "Productive" can be two hours of studying for my actuarial exams, applying for a job, two hours of (learning to) script/code in SQL or Lua, or doing some major cleaning around the house: cleaning the bathrooms, deciding what in our bookshelves is worth getting rid of, thoroughly vacuuming both floors, the stairs, and thoroughly cleaning the vacuum machine itself afterwards, etc. (Tentative list here.) +3 WIS Other goals I'm not going to give myself points for but I'll track anyway: do all the Assassin Mini-challenges, record for my Youtube channel at least once a week, finish my fanfic for the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure reverse bang challenge, lead and/or edit an episode of Roguelike Radio, and do more research for my future marine ecology/evolution themed roguelike (yes this is going to be a thing and it's gonna be awesome).
