──[ Woodcutting ]────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────//───

I continued  the Woodcutting  grind at  the  Blisterwood tree,  and got  my  first
skilling  pet on June 2nd. Beaver at 85 Woodcutting from Blisterwood. It was quite
a shock and motivated me  to keep grinding Woodcutting toward  90. I was going  to
continue  for a  while at  Redwoods initially, but  I started  wanting something a
little more interactive for a while.

──[ Slayer ]─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────//───

I thought some Slayer would be  nice, so I went with a  bit of that. I started  by
spending  some Slayer points and one of my many Vorkath heads on my Slayer helmet.
I also noticed I had  an active Black Demon task  and a stored Greater Demon  task
that  I was procrastinating. I wanted to do Demonic Gorillas and Tormented Demons,
but they're  not as  AFK as  other tasks.  I finished  the Black  Demon task  with
Demonic  Gorillas and got  the Heavy frame,  then a ranged  safespot Basilisk task
with Basilisk Knights,  and Ankous  in the Catacombs.  I didn't  like holding  the
Greater  Demon task for  so long, and I  really don't like  Tormented Demons, so I
just finished the task in the Catacombs. Next  was a Jad task I stored for  later,
then  immediately  another Jad  task.  I went  into the  Fight  Cave on  the wrong
spellbook, so I left and came back, not remembering that it skips the task if  you
leave, so I got to wave 20 before I realized no Slayer XP was dropping, so I left.
Then I  just  did  the same  skip  again  with  the stored  task  because  of  how
demotivating  that was. Next was Vampyres, which I did with Sentinels, and finally
got the Blood shard to drop. I got a Blue Dragon task at some point that I  stored
for  Vorkath later. I also noticed  a dip in the prices  of both the Ghrazi rapier
and Avernic defender hilt, both of which are on my wishlist, so I liquidated a few
more assets and snatched them up. The next task I completed was Fire Giants, which
finally got me 99 Strength. Next were  Suqahs, which seem like a pretty bad  task.
And  Red Dragons  with Brutal  Red Dragons  in the  Catacombs. I  got another Blue
Dragon task, so now I have  one active and one stored.  Might as well use them  at
Vorkath, but I don't feel like bossing for a while, so that's Slayer for now.

──[ Sorting ]────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────//───

I keep getting obsessed with sorting my bank tabs. Something keeps bothering me or
seems  like it could be  better. After a few iterations,  I came up with something
that would do the job for now without  bothering me too much, but I'll still  want
to eventually replace. I really need to stop hoarding and playing like an Ironman.

──[ Reformat ]───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────//───

I reformatted my computer on June 18th,  followed by wiping one of my servers  and
installing  Proxmox to remaster my infrastructure. So from this point on, tracking
gets a bit spotty. RuneLite's XP tracker updater wasn't enabled, so there's a  big
gap.  I remedied this by creating a service on my server to update my character on
the 3 major tracking websites  as often as they allow.  Though this does mean  the
InfluxDB  tracking started  last month  basically only  shows my  slow Woodcutting
gains.

──[ Progress ]───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────//───

I decided to just keep busy in-game  with whatever seemed interesting at the  time
while  I slowly worked  on my infrastructure. I  even cooked the  raw sharks in my
bank at 99 Cooking like an Ironman for some reason. But then I guess I  remembered
I'm a main and sold a bunch of valuable stacks I was just sitting on for some cash
to skill with. I tried my best to do a few herb and birdhouse runs each day. I did
some  Motherlode Mine, dragon diamond bolts, Blast Furnace, Guardians of the Rift,
Rellekka Agility, Mahogany Homes,  Barbarian Fishing, crafting diamond  jewellery,
and  making Saradomin brews. Even did my first Gemstone Crab with Attack, Defence,
Ranged, and Magic. The  biggest though was  during Thieving. Once  I reached 80  I
thought  to  try out  Heroes,  and was  rewarded  with Rocky  on  June 28th  at 81
Thieving. I couldn't really believe it, and  it gave me quite a lot of  motivation
to  continue with one of  my most dreaded skills. And  this was actually the exact
point I realized nothing was tracking. I  felt like continuing to some goal  right
then and there with the motivation would burn me out and that I'd be better off to
keep things balanced, so I continued shuffling activities. Overall looking back  I
did make a notable spike of progress and it was a bit more fun. I'm getting closer
and closer to meeting all the requirements  for the other elite diaries, which  is
quite exciting too.
