The log, much like YouTube vlogs and even blogs like this one, is often mundane and pedantic but after reading a few entries, I got hooked. Something resonates with me and it's like I can "see" in my mind's eye, his daily life, for all its excitement or lack thereof, and it becomes fascinating. I guess I equate it to what an entomologist must feel when he studies the behavior of insects for hours on end.
So in the spirit of his "ship's logs" which really are detailed journal entries of his entire day, each and every day, I present my day as it happened here on my blog in the same fashion.
All aboard the S.S. Koyaanisqatsi Degauss! Better take your dramamine.
And a few caffeine pills. LOL

Watched a show on PBS about Prince Charles watching home movies of his childhood. A lot of candid footage of the royals playing and being, well, kinda normal. Very humanizing to the image of the queen.
Spent time as a result of the PBS show researching Wikipedia about Lord Mountbatten, which lead to researching the IRA and "the Troubles".
Then spent half an hour looking at porn.
Caught up on my YouTube subscriptions: watched the newest uploads of Kiki756 and heard a reference, again, about The Shaytards. Finally decided to check out their channel to see what the hype's all about. First few minutes watching their videos..."Oh just another PERFECT family and their "home movie" style vlogs." but then after a few more minutes and some older videos..."Hmmm, the're kinda interesting. ShayCarl is a hoot, I can see why people like him, he's got a natural easy-going nature and he's pretty funny." But then after 15 more minutes I got bored.
Took a 3 hour nap.
Started playing Minecraft and got killed losing all my shit in some far away location. My spawn site has no trees around, it's the middle of the game's night and I'm also dying of starvation. Logged out to search the forums for a good mapper. Downloaded a few that didn't work and went to obsolete links for old beta version mappers. Finally got one that works and is pretty decent called Tectonicus Map using a GUI called Minutor. Cool.
Made spaghetti with Mid's meat sauce and OnCor Chicken Parmesan Patties.
Watched an hour or so of "Pawn Stars".
Took another 3 hour nap. Was dreaming about Minecraft so...
Played Minecraft on my newest world "Aurumnia". I want to play this on either my desktop or laptop. Tabbed out to try to search wikis on how to set up a multiplayer server for Minecraft. Either old info, incomplete or way too technically tedious. Also, requires downloads from mysterious sites and utilizing you IP Address...too risky, no thanks. Went back to my game.
Had more spaghetti.
More porn.
Another nap.
Played some Sims 3 but realized after about half an hour that the house I'm designing looks just like so many of the other houses I've designed over the years. ZZZZZZ.
Played a little Civ, but got bored with that after an hour or so.
Feeling like today has been very unproductive, fattening, nap-filled and dirty.
Took a shower.
Did some general internet browsing, thought about Bill's "Magnolia" log, read up on his past few weeks or so and decided to do something like that on my blog.
