It was the first year we did towers. The year was 2013, and towers 1 started Jan 1st, and lasted till March, I think. Towers 2 started in April, if memory doesn't fail me and lasted... the rest of the year, I think. We had two read-a-thons for that edition, one in May and one for Halloween. It was fun, but *very* intense.

35559 Not wanting to disturb anyone, or set the circus on fire or anything, but once upon a time, there wasn't a set schedule for NBRC's team challenges. There were years with two tower editions, and years without either towers nor wheels.

Even the starting months could vary.

35559 considering the amount of things I have on my plate... LOL

35559 This week needs to die a sudden death

Yes, I know is mainly my fault because I procrastinate till I cannot longer do it and then have to put the work in the shortest amount of time possible.

But really, I need to reset.

35559 Btw, I wanted an excuse to read Loki and His Master (Demon Gods #1) by Rhys Lawless and it features witches.

Also, punching their v-card counts as doing something for the first time, riight? *giggles*

Scratch that, it's a spin-off. Oh well, Killer Heart (Cursed Hearts #1) by Rhys Lawless also has witches.

35559 Well, the combo worked. And although I'm still a little sore, I no longer feel like have needles in my eyes when looking at screens or trying to think.

I only take 1 a day too for the same reason. And then have decaff when/if I need the "coffee break effect" during the day.

35559 One of my triggers is the lack of coffee... or caffeine, I should say.

When my nespresso machine broke, I got this crazy impulsive idea to buy one from my usual supermarket. It was cheaper, and I preferred their coffee anyway. The coffee is quite good, but, since my car broke down, is not that easy to go there shopping. Yes, they deliver, but my order only arrives today.

I ran out of coffee on thursday. I didn't think it a big deal, just go outside to a café, right? Well... kinda. Since I totally forgot both cafés nearby close on sunday.

I did had decaff. It worked somehow on the cravings... however... around 5 PM, my brain decided it was tired of waiting for real caffeine and it was time I paid the price for my dumbness. Oh well.. I had coffee outside this morning. And took enough brufen to knock an elephant (not really, just the regular dose), I sure hope things get back to normal soon. Because looking at two computer screens hurts. Heck. Being in a sitting position hurts.

Curious enough as I was updating my challenge ss today, I was thinking in the lines that those books were perfect for small count tasks, and we had none at the moment

35559 What is annoying me is that I know that I have read a book that has it, but can't remember which one.

Meh.

35559 Daredevil in text... yeah... I'm going to self ban from spinning. LOL

In some better news, I needed a book with "fun time" in the shower/bath/water for my slippery bonus this week, and remembered
