[0:11] once in a while as we trace the tides.

[0:18] It's a good It's a good feeling to have

[0:21] a dog like that.

[0:24] Makes me really wish I had my own dog,

[0:26] but I'm not in any hurry. He's He's good

[0:28] enough to just go pick up for my, you

[0:32] know, one of my friends and take him to

[0:34] the beach.

[0:37] Pretty awesome.

[0:44] So, I got my phone on my on charging

[0:47] right now. It's in my backpack, so I

[0:49] can't really make a great angle, I don't

[0:51] think. Guess I kind of can. Hold on.

[0:55] carrying a leash and Mountain Dew.

[1:02] The last

[1:05] dependent

[1:08] that I still need to break

[1:10] nicotine

[1:12] 10 11 days now.

[1:16] It is so beautiful out here.

[1:19] No sun. It's a gray day, but it's

[1:21] beautiful.

[1:23] My husband's convenient.

[1:26] I love my life. It is so awesome.

[1:33] Got to sell all the money parts.

[1:37] Working on it. Always have been.

[1:43] I think people understood that I've

[1:45] always been [ __ ] trying to solve this

[1:47] part.

[1:49] It's not like I enjoy not having money.

[1:52] It's pretty [ __ ] difficult.

[1:59] You only It's got to be aligned and

[2:04] so many different [ __ ] things happen.

[2:06] It just

[2:11] easy explanation.

[2:15] Always I get pushed back into

[2:16] freelancing though. Here comes the

[2:18] ocean. better.

[2:20] Oops. I accidentally knocked the camera

[2:23] off.

[2:25] Sometimes Sometimes I'm not paying

[2:27] attention. I misjudge the tide. And you

[2:30] do got to hop, skip, run, whatever it

[2:34] takes.

[2:38] Buddy's over there peeing on everything.

[2:40] That's what dogs do, I guess.

[2:47] over there somewhere.

[2:50] There he is.

[2:57] So, yeah, I'm having a good day. Um,

[3:01] I am ready to start working on

[3:09] whatever the next phase is. I mean, I'm

[3:11] migrating my projects to completely new

[3:14] servers.

[3:16] And there's some work involved there.

[3:18] Get that done today and tomorrow

[3:19] probably.

[3:21] There's a lot I want to do with

[3:23] autonomy.

[3:25] Want to redo my website using it

[3:27] autonomy as the base of it and then add

[3:31] from there instead of the way I did it

[3:32] the first time. This first time this is

[3:34] me iterating. I always been all my life.

[3:38] I iterate projects and

[3:50] The money part's the hard part, you

[3:51] know? I [ __ ]

[3:54] never had to build from such scarcity

[3:57] before, and that's

[4:00] not [ __ ] easy.

[4:05] We got some of the little birdies who

[4:07] look like they're ice skating when

[4:08] they're running across the beach.

[4:11] They're so adorable, man.

[4:14] I don't know what they're called. Oh,

[4:16] those ones playing with each other,

[4:20] but if you get them in a group,

[4:22] especially when they're near the beach,

[4:24] like where the water's wet, it looks

[4:27] like they're [ __ ] ice skating, man.

[4:30] It is so neat.

[4:33] Look at them. They're so [ __ ] cool,

[4:37] man. I love these little birds.

[4:40] We got buddy way up there. He's just

[4:42] doing his thing all by himself. I mean,

[4:44] I love this. This is wonderful. Kind of

[4:48] sharing the moment with another being.

[4:50] And

[4:52] he's also not cuz he's just in his own

[4:54] world up there.

[4:59] I'm mine.

[5:04] The tracks are cuz we're near where

[5:06] where ATVs are allowed to be. Yeah. Now,

[5:09] we passed the sign a while ago.

[5:12] This is all all the ATVs that we drive

[5:15] here. Quads and motorbikes,

[5:17] dirt bikes and jeeps and

[5:21] side by sides.

[5:27] Another sand rails. Sandra is another

[5:29] one.

[5:35] Looks fun. really do. You know, I've

[5:37] been on a sandro once with somebody.

[5:39] That was fun.

[5:43] Think I would like to have a quad or

[5:44] something.

[5:47] Dirt bike. Dirt bike. I think I really

[5:49] want a dirt bike. Don't know if I'm too

[5:51] old for that or not.

[5:54] We'll find out.

[5:59] So, anyways, um there's a lot I want to

[6:01] do with my projects.

[6:04] um

[6:07] feel like

[6:09] um my body is getting to the point cuz

[6:11] you know I quit vaping with all nicotine

[6:14] 10 11 days ago and I just was not in any

[6:17] right state to be focusing on anything.

[6:21] Um

[6:25] just couldn't not do it. So I just spent

[6:27] as much time outside as I could like I

[6:29] am now on the beach

[6:32] and

[6:35] you know,

[6:37] but I'm starting to feel like I'm

[6:39] discovering my new baseline, whatever

[6:41] that is. And um, you know, I can feel

[6:44] like I can sit down and actually start

[6:46] doing some work.

[6:48] And

[6:51] we'll see where that takes us.

[6:55] You know, a year and a half

[6:58] into my journey.

[7:06] Oh, bug got in my eye, man. That

[7:12] love that.

[7:17] So, I really like my eyebrow piercing,

[7:20] especially as a hoop. I [ __ ] love it

[7:22] now. Um, kind of wish I still had the

[7:26] second one, but I could not get anything

[7:27] good. I think my scar is a little Don't

[7:30] know. So, I'm just waiting to see what

[7:31] happens with that.

[7:33] And if I ever wanted to, I guess I could

[7:35] pierce it again. But I really love the

[7:38] single little hoop there. It's cute.

[7:43] So, yeah,

[7:46] that's really all I got to say today.

[7:50] Yep.

Summary

rswfire walks on a beach with a friend's dog named Buddy, who runs off-leash while they trace the tides. He is 10-11 days into quitting nicotine and describes feeling ready to return to work after spending time outside during recovery. He discusses ongoing financial challenges, noting the difficulty of building from scarcity while maintaining alignment requirements. Technical work includes migrating projects to new servers and rebuilding his website using autonomy as the base. He observes small birds that appear to ice skate on the wet sand and mentions being near an ATV-allowed area with visible tracks. He expresses satisfaction with his single eyebrow piercing hoop and reflects on being a year and a half into his journey.

Signal Analysis

Substrate

This transmission maps the emergence of new operational baseline following dependency dissolution, with embodied presence (beach, dog, movement) serving as stabilizing infrastructure. The architecture holds simultaneous sovereignty and transition, using physical environment as both anchor and mirror for internal recalibration processes.
