Sabbatical Update (Week 2)

June 18, 2021

Summary: (11 June 2021 to 17 June 2021) Finishing laying the foundation for chronicling my sabbatical, and still reading Trickster Makes This World.

This week I finished laying the foundation for chronicling my sabbatical. I finished some big updates for my website, published the sabbatical prologue, decided to do weekly updates, and subsequently published an update for week 1 retroactively, as well as the update you're reading right now of course. I continued reading Trickster Makes This World. We're still in Jeriocoacoara; we have 1 more week here.

I am starting to settle into the groove of a sabbatical schedule. My day usually looks like this:

• Wake up and make coffee
• Read
• Work on personal projects once the caffeine high hits
• Do some "daily habit" work (e.g. meditate, exercise)
• Do routine and common human stuff (e.g. cooking or laundry)
• Work a bit more on personal projects and daily habits
• Routine and common human stuff
• Rest at night (e.g. Gabi and I are currently enjoying RuPaul's Drag Race and nature documentaries)

Next week I am going to focus on studying Portuguese. I am currently in Brazil and Gabi is from here.
