Day 2,517: So Fast

Things continue to move fast. We’re barreling towards something exciting and overwhelming and nerve wracking and wonderful. We’re not there yet on this particular project of which I won’t name—not yet—but we’re getting close. Wish us luck.

That’s taking most of my energy these days. But…I still had a productive little writing session tonight. It’s not a zero day.

I also played music tonight. That was wonderful.

I’m listening to music right now, and it’s so helpful. Music really fires my...

“The Practical Joker” (Star Trek: The Animated Series S2 Ep3)

KIRK IS A JERK! The Enterprise keeps pulling wacky, zany, practical jokes on its crew, Ira remembers watching this episode when he was only three or four years old, we debate who on the Enterprise can take a joke, and we both do a deep dive on what we watched as kids that really left an impression on us.

Day 2,517: So Fast

Things move fast sometimes.

That’s what I find myself thinking about tonight. Most of the time, things move slow. Too slow, even. And we kind of count on that, the slowness. But, then they surprise you and move quickly.

I had a good Sunday, guys. Finally. A couple good conversations about stressful things, some good news on the project Liz and I are working on, some football watching, some watching of The Vow on HBO, and I got done the editing work and podcasting work I needed to get done....

Day 2,516: Coco’s Nose

Making it a quick one tonight.

Been a hell of a week. Not all bad at all, to be sure, but intense…also, to be sure.

Ran around town today with Liz. Been doing a lot of that lately and I see it keeping up as long as we’re working on this particular project.

Talked with the fam today on FaceTime. That was nice. Going to do more of that tomorrow, actually. Took a nap or two.

Solid day. Intense day. A’s won. Woot!

Day 2,515: I’m Every Woman

Long day. Long week…but a good one. Genuinely. This week has had it’s ups and downs, but for me personally, at least, it was a very good week.

The world continues to burn. Rest in peace Ruth Bader Ginsburg. You were a champion for women, and you can never be replaced. The idea of Trump naming your successor is truly horrifying.

The election, man…it might tear this country apart. And I’m not even joking about that. That’s not hyperbole.

America dread aside…I had a good day. I was worried...

Day 2,514: I Can’t Go Back

The last few weeks have been a struggle.

I’ve struggled to write. I’ve struggled to work out. I’ve felt tired, overwhelmed and burned out.

I know I’ve talked about that to some degree during that time, but I don’t think I’ve talked about it enough. I’ve fallen out of my routines these past two weeks. It’s been too much to handle everything.

And I guess the reason I wanted to say that is that I’m realizing that’s just part of it all. For me. This happens from time to time. It doesn’t mea...
