You Made the Transfer, Man!

On October 30, 2022, NASCAR racer Ross Chastain pulled off a legendary video game move that's never been successfully done in NASCAR racing: wall riding. Chastain pulled off 1 unexpected move that shocked the crowd, got him a spot in the championship, and cemented his legacy in NASCAR racing history. Upon finishing the race, these words can be heard from a member of Chastain's crew:

You made the transfer! You made the transfer, man! That was f---ing ridiculous dude! That was wild man, that was wild! I don't know how long you've been sitting on that move but that was f---ing incredible.

To that effect, that's sort of how I felt today. I feel like I pulled off something so hairbrained, something totally unexpected, that I didn't even know I would successfully pull off until it did—shocking everyone who knew of it. I'm happy, but at the same time, I can't rest easy just yet knowing how much I still have to achieve. I made the transfer, but the championship is still there.

Today wasn't an ordinary day for me. A year ago, I would've thought that today would just be the same day.

I ate so much, too. I knew I had to diet for a bit yesterday and I made the right call by doing so. Regardless, I still feel like I overate, though. I hope I lose this weight soon.

For the evening, I was in a call with my friends and they introduced me to a new game series: Fears to Fathom. I played the 1st episode: Home Alone, then the 2nd episode: Norwood Hitchhike, and finally the 3rd episode: Carson House by the end of the night. All games were really frightening and it unsettled me, but I really do like playing horror games.
