September 1 - September 7
What I read
More of a recollection of the author’s experience with various rogue-like games over the years.
small clever rooms: Ten Thousand Lifetimes with Roguelikes
When I was a kid, a few factors combined to give me what I suspect will be a lifelong neurosis about video games: my basic respect for my parents’ authority and opinions, my mother’s extreme disdain (it seemed to me, at least, at the time) for any and all electronic gaming, and my borderline obsession with same. My brother and I weren’t allowed a game system until, after much parental deliberation, I gather, we received a Super Nintendo for the Christmas of what I think was one of my middle school years.

I am currently reading The Technological Republic by Alexander Karp.
Training
This was one of the best weeks for exercise in a while. After a hiatus from running, I really wanted to hit 25 miles again.
Health metrics
The amount of running helped me average over 10K steps, but I would still like to see something closer to 15K.
Languages
A great week for studying. Currently on Unit 16 of Section 2 (A1).
