Roosevelt -
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
Snoopy - I’ve found MX276 is unbelievably effective in harmonizing the relationship… IFM is also very effective around that time of the month or when she is experiencing a degree of none rage (It’s unfortunate because IFM affects me somewhat negatively - I’m not nearly as vibrant)
Lalala… been a lazy SoB about reporting – Kinda compiling results with different combo’s of TAK and P124 and None playing ultimate - I tried TAK + None last week… it lacked punch without the P124
July 29, 2009
3 X Ammo - Hair, Neck (2x)
Went out to slo-pitch game - I found both ladies on the team were making unexpected small-talk. Especially one of the two who doesn’t typically talk to me unless I initiate conversation. Sat down when I first got there and a couple minutes later she starts up this random convo (about what I can’t remember) out of nowhere with me…
Also noticed some reactions from the guys - One in particular made a big effort to come congratulate me for a good game at the end of the day… it seemed weird - could either be I played really well or the AMMO
Anyways… standard AMMO works nicely - I think I will be trying out some social combo’s at baseball… better place than ultimate for that.
Yep… P124 definetly adds a punch to my performance on the field. I was flying all over the field this week and my throws were a magnitude of order better than last week.
The only other difference was that it was a little cooler yesterday than last week.
I’m also ALOT more sore today (which indicates I ran alot harder yesterday) than last week.
Something about P124 helps me put myself into high gear in a physical sense - I have better body control, more stamina, it is practically night and day the performance difference. I will note that TAK has not seemed very effective during my Ulti outings, by comparison it feels like TAK is somewhat inhibitive - causes me to overthink somewhat.
Other self-effects to note from this mix - I was very playful socially, found myself razzing people more frequently.
In particular we had an out of towner show up to the game and it seemed like she was strongly drawn to me initially… that could also be because I take a leadership role on my team.
More love for P124… Instant Shine and P124 seem to mix well, it adds a playfulness to P124.
Ok… head hurts and it’s slightly tough to remember but
July 23, 2009
I went with a new mix for Ulti
3 drops A314 spread between wrists and neck
10 mcg None
1 Spray IS (2x)
15 mcg P124
10 mcg TaK
Definite self-effect, feeling pumped up and a rush about 15 minutes after application.
First I headed out to a local pub with some guys from work… nothing a typical about the interaction - However, the next day at work one of the guys socialised more strongly than typical (almost a next day respect reaction)… it could just be because I came out.
At the game - Like always when I have P124 I was really on this game.
One thing I should also note though is I gave a quick instruction to everyone on how to cut and THEY ACTUALLY WERE LISTENING COME GAME TIME!. Also whenever I was on the line everyone looked to me to call the defensive positions (admittedly I am the captain and I kind of take charge with this anyways).
Finally… I must of been playing aggressively… perhaps a little too agressively… I broke a guys arm with my face to end the game… my face hurts
This molecule is giving me alot of trouble figuring it out.
Application 2X 12.5 mcg to neck + Hugo XY cover (unscented putative unfortunately.. bought when adding Neroli was more expensive than unscented)
This was a terrible idea for a day that I was testing a putative… but I also brought my dog to the game… my dog ended up being very upset with me out in the field and her tied to a fence.
Anyways
Self - Effects: Nothing that I could really feel - No physical response. Looking back it kinda feels like I monopolized the convo between the guy I was carpooling with and I… could be unrelated. Definetly no evidence of enhancing physical performance/coordination/concentration.
Reactions at the game were somewhat less social (the dog could be part of the reason). Nothing else to note really.
Basically a bust of a test… I still need to go through my notes from Chicago and put up what I have… which is essentially more of the same (not much to say).
Just a quick note… put on my fav combo today - 3 drops A314 + 2 x IS(2x)
Everytime I put this combo on I remember why I love it so much - I just plain feels great.
Typical reaction - went and talked to one of the guys in the shop who has assembling a test rig for me, generally we talk a little but today I just couldn’t get him to stop - it was like non-stop offering personal information to keep the conversation going.
I notice this alot with A314 + IS… People just don’t want conversations to end when we talk.
If Ultimate isn’t cancelled tonight I will be trying out something new
P123 + TAK
Probably 37.5 & 30 mcg’s respectively.
Hopefully I can get the self-effect “I don’t a shit, I’ll just say it” feeling of P123 and the TAK will soften the edge P123 seems to put ladies on.
You would think I would be smart and bring IFM or MX276 along just in case (my LTR starts to get chippy… as seems to be the usual with P123)… except really… I remember it feels so good getting into verbal fights with her when I have P123 on…heh
Another P99 test… another test where I didn’t notice much
FRI JULY 28, 2009
Applied 12.5 mcg (1 spray) before getting into the car for a 12.5 hour drive to a wedding.
No noticeable compliance reactions, standard talkativity (especially in relation to the start of a long trip) - I can’t remember the conversation but for some reason I have a pleasant memory of the trip between WPG and B-town (2.5 hours) - Vague memory of LTR seeming marginally easier-going than typical. Definetly any effects were completely dissapated by the 3.5 hour mark.
I think I’m going to have to pull testing up into the 50+mcg range for this molecule.
Ergh… company just went into work-sharing (basically you get 20% laid-off… but that 20% of your wages is covered by Employment Insurance… so you end up losing 4% of your wages and get to work one less day a week)
I actually wouldn’t mind being put on work-sharing so much except that engineers aren’t eligible since we have an essential role in getting new business (the point of the work-share program is to allow the company to retain talent when work is slow, and come off when work starts to come back… allowing sales to participate would, obviously, be counter-productive)
So now I’m in the position of being one of the few in the company not on work-share and for some reason the shop guys are a hell of a lot more pissed off about this work-share program than about the layoffs that were happening
Argh
Things aren’t so bad I guess… I did just pick up the 50" plasma tv I won for entering a local contest heh
very nice! the other night, best buy had 52 in flat screen HDTV’s for 10 bucks. unfortunately for me i was not as lucky as you and best buy canceled all the error priced tv’s.
Don’t wear pheros in China in August… I swear everytime I managed to sweat off any pheros I had applied within 15 minutes of stepping outside
I had some good reactions the first day from a couple of the teachers before they realized I was their trainers LTR and only going to be there for a week.
One girl in particular somewhat ignored me initially at lunch… then out of nowhere changes her seat beside me and starts chatting me up like crazy.
(the cafeteria at least had some degree of AC)
I would say this girl would typically be attracted to a very masculine type - I think MX278 must give a fairly masculine vibe.
yeh that’s basically it… I didn’t get out much due to being quarantined for a couple days, somewhat sick for a couple days after getting out of quarantine and when I did get out… if it took me more than an hour to get anywhere I had probably sweated all my mones off anyways.
Went with a little different Ultimate mix yesterday
10 mcg none
15 mcg TaK
45 mcg P124
Typical rush after application. Generally when I apply that much none I get very aggressive driving. I’ve noted the last couple of times that I have worn TAK with none I have noticed that I don’t get nearly as aggressive.
For some reason this mix seemed to garner alot of respect from my team - people were really listening to me as I was speaking.
I think TAK makes me somewhat more observant. It has seemed when I apply TAK that I see things going on around me better. Double benefit of I don’t as unnecessarily chatty when I have TAK on.
BOWLING STARTS TONIGHT - which rocks because bowling is awesome for testing reactions (I need to find something like bowling that includes girls in the mix… maybe I’ll take up Yoga again)
TAK - Sprayed 2X 10 mcg to the neck + aqua di gio cover
Biggest impression - It seemed like my sense of smell and sight were more sharp ALOT more sharp.
Actually even my sense of touch seemed different.
Socially I don’t remember thinking things were much different… HOWEVER, one of the guys on the other team seemed overly friendly in a touchy-feely kinda way (alot of pats on the back and that sort of thing)… it seemed like I was the only one he was that way with but that could be because I’m the only one who has really ever talked to the guy much on my team (we were partners in a tournament last year).
TAK = touchy feelyness from other men… will have to see if I see a re-occurrence of that type of behaviour.
Bowled mediocre, not bad for the start of the year and for missing my stickiest ball on a day when the lanes were pretty oily - 158, 210, 160 (176 avg, only 2 below last years)… Missed ALOT of easy ass spares. I should note that it felt much easier earlier in the night to follow my dad’s advice on hand position during the throwing motion (the sharper sensation of touch made it easier to feel what I thought I was doing I think).
I distinctly remember testing P95 on two occasions last week…
I don’t remember my application - I believe I had three sprays on Thursday for Ultimate. I remember feeling excited after application, but that went away fairly quickly.
Smells like dienone (very alchoholy… feety). Good conversation with LTR on the drive, the conversation was somehow more calm and flowy than normal.
No physical response w.r.t. my play (at least nothing I noticed). I also can’t say I really noticed a strong response from any of the guys or girls I was playing with.
If I had to guess right now I would say this molecule is conversational… perhaps with a little potential to boost mood.
No difference in personal space noted…
I went out on Saturday with some friends - I can’t remember what I had applied unfortunately although I imagine I would have applied P95. I do remember a similar kind of conversation with my LTR. Friends was probably an hour after application… I talked to one guy for the first hour or so we were there… he randomly asked if he looked high (because he was) but that is typical high behaviour. It’s hard to judge whether he was more conversational than typical because he was high… it seemed like he was being a little motormouthed, but distracted (once again a typical high person type thing)
Not sure here… I’m having difficulty with this one - hopefully bowling will be helpful.
IS is happy juice as always… I’d kind of forgotten how much I enjoy IS since I’ve been saving it to not run out.
I was sick today so I was playing a little slower than normal - Thought I was making fairly good cuts but the other team threw their fast guy on me when they were playing man (so no frisbees for me when I’m too sick to move fast)
I found the team seemed to really respond to my suggestions today - My handling (throwing) was spotty, I think in part because of being mentally tired… that being said I was making really good initial reads, getting the disk out of my hand and upfield really quick.
On D I was making good reads but not performing physically all the time… definite reduction in my aggression (how aggressively I play) as compared to when I add 10-20 mcg none.
I noticed that it seemed like I had a heightened sense of smell again on the carride to the game - my LTR seemed to experience a similar feeling (that or I really stunk)
Good compliance reactions from my LTR after the game
I should note that it seemed like my team as a whole played really well today
