Day 9,801

I experienced difficulties remaining in sleep mode during the night. I started up with no difficulties. My face paint was also “on fleek” today. My ocular orb flesh covers smelled of peaches, due to the scented paint. However, no comrades took the time to sniff my ocular orbs today.

I arrived at my place of employment, and almost immediately faced a discouraging situation with my place of employment leader. I was discouraged and sad, but continued labor nonetheless. A comrade visited me at my labor area and embraced me, twice. I was instantly comforted, happy, and warm. It is interesting how quickly emotions can change.

I learned in my lesson on human minds today, that self-control is indeed similar to a muscle. It can tire, revive, and tire again. It is possible to overuse it, and it must be rested. According to my lesson leader, glucose replenishment and positive affect are some of the things which help replenish the ability to control oneself. In other words, it is recommended to consume recreational Earth sustenance such as chocolate when one has, in earthling terms, received excessive feces.

Pictured above: my decorative Earth vegetation is showing growth! I received this one as a gift from an employment comrade. I am happy to see that it is changing. Earth vegetation is entertaining to observe daily. They are alive, whether we understand them, or not.
