Day 3,036: Sneeze at

It’s a late one tonight, so we’ll keep it shortie.

No writing this morning. Failed on that one. Did get off the corporate taxes though, got all my Netflix done, helped Liz film two auditions, worked on the project AND had a very nice evening watching the first two episodes of Severance and eating dinner together.

All in all…a great day. Night night.

Day 3,035: New Sheets

New sheets, who dis?

I was informed today by my significant other than Instagram is “dying.” Wtf. Can’t keep up with this shit. And I was just re-starting the TG1T account! But, I guess that kinda makes sense. I took a two year break from that shit…and I guess a lot of other people did, too.

Social media is…interesting. It’s not going away. Not in the slightest. But, I do wonder if it has a peak it either has hit or will hit in terms of how MUCH we’re on social media, and it will contract ...

Day 3,034: Cookie motivated

We washed the pups!

They can’t go to the doomers (groomers) for another couple weeks and because they’re so low to the ground, they just become dust mops at a certain point. So…it get’s ROUGH over here. Dusty dusty dusty.

Well, no longer! They have been bathed. We try not to bathe them as much as possible, actually, because it’s not great for their skin to wash them. They also hate it like we’re trying to drown them. Especially Coco. Made me a little nervous holding her down with her back ...

Day 3,033: The Year 3000

In three hundred days…so that’s right around the end of this year?…it will be an entry of all threes. Four of them. And about three years after that, it will be all fours. Four of them.

I love those kind of milestones. They come around so infrequently, they’re really quite special.

Next year, you guys, at the END of the year…it will be ten years since I started this thing. Crazy. I was just figuring out back then that I wanted to write instead of act, and I knew nothing about how to do it....

Day 3,032: Bare Bears

We Bare Bears is low key one of my new favorite shows of all time.

I’m deeeep into season 2 right now, and while this season started off rough, it’s since soared to the highest heights the show has been to this point. I’d fucking die for those bears. And Craboo. And Chloe. They must all be protected at all costs. And the baby bear episodes??? FORGETABOUTIT.

Productive day today. Work, household stuff and writing. Even got to spend some time with Liz working on the project stuff. Whew. I ne...

Day 3,031: Hungry

I’m hungry. I got plans. Goals. Dreams.

I had a good day today. Got my ass up and wrote for a full two hours. Made some really good progress on the outline. I’m actually damn close. Need to keep pushing. See if I can finish here in the next week or two. Get my ass WRITING. My favorite part 🙂

I’m very much figuring out my process though for preparing to write. Finally. And it feels very, very natural. Not forced, or contrived or anything like that. Just ME. Me left to my own devices, figuri...

Day 3,030: Choke

Man. Allergies. Still bad. BETTER. But, still bad. Was helping Bear with an audition and had a little coughing fit from the allergies. Blerg.

Not a SUPER productive day. But a solid one. I got all my Netflix shiz done. Like a boss. Writing was weak, though. I was tired enough that I actually went back to bed. Also took a nap this afternoon, and…

I feel like I’ve finally caught up on sleep. Tomorrow, gonna go hard with the writing. Two full hours. I want to GET THIS OUTLINE DONE. I’m far, f...

Day 3,029: Love

Happy Valentine’s Day to the love of my life: Elizabeth Ho.

There. I said it. It’s out there. Whew!

We had a really, really nice love day today. We got to spend MOST of it together, and the brief parts we didn’t made it able for me to run and pick up a couple things I had planned to make things special. Like, flowers from Wild Flora, which are STUNNING. I mean, like, wedding-caliber arrangements. And we got a mug/glass/vase of theirs that we can use to get monthly arrangements from them fo...

Day 3,028: Puppy Bowl

Long week and a long weekend. I’m pooped.

But, I’ve got my ass up each morning when I was supposed to. Had a great writing session this morning. Great therapy sesh, too. Then I worked on some stuff, watched the super bowl—Liz has a commercial coming out and we were curious if it would drop during the game, but it didn’t which is actually a GOOD thing, we hope, which means her spot is just a normal commercial they plan to run for a long time as opposed to so many of the one-off commercial made...

Day 3,027: Carmen.

Happy Birthday to Thilde! She’s ten this week. Party was today at LACMA, but her actual birthday was a few days ago. Dad set up a scavenger hunt in the museum which ended up outside in the amphitheater and Liz sitting on top of a black box. It had a bunch of jewels inside. Thilde was dressed as Carmen Sandiego. It was SO. CUTE.

Worked a bit on the project. Took care of the pups. Randomly had TWO things break down at the building today for some goddamn reason. The gate and the elevator. Both a...
