Day 2,512: Two Full Weeks
Man…I went through two full weeks without writing. Damn.
I fixed that today, though. The good news is that the book is still right there, raring to go. The story is great. The scene I’m working on is almost fully assembled…it was a good writing day.
Work was rough. And not because of WORK, but because I was, for whatever reason, fucking EXHAUSTED today. I had to take two naps, just to keep going. That is highly unusual. It’s the air quality. All the smoke is wiping me the fuuuuuuu out.

Day 2,511: A Good Day
Today was a good day.
Thank lawd, it was a good day. Work went great. Writing just now went great, I had a great, great idea for this opening sequence, a true crisis moment just presented itself and it’s so simple and so clear…it’ll be a cinch to write.
What is a “cinch” anyway? Something to do with ropes…maybe?
Nuggets beat the Clippers. Crazy. Clips were supposed to win it all this year. They got Kawhi and PG13. Again…they didn’t make it past the second round. They’ve never, as a fran...

Day 2,510: Ouch
Dammit. I banged my foot putting together a shelf tonight. Got it pretty good.
In other news…the Ikea shelf that I’ve been trying to add to my office for literally the past month and a half is FINALLY HERE. Hooray! It actually came in a few days ago, but I’ve been so busy I couldn’t actually put it together.
It BARELY fits in my closet. I had to wiggle it in there not fully assembled because it won’t fit through the door otherwise. But…I did it. It’s in there. And it’s glorious. So much mo...
“Bem” (Star Trek: The Animated Series S2 Ep2)
In which a dude can split his body into multiple parts! This week, we look ahead to the fast-approaching end of this animated show and what lies beyond…the movies…we decide the Arex is massively underappreciated, and…that, though our titular character doesn’t make any sense, this episode was still pretty fun. At least it had a dungeon!

Day 2,509: Older
One year older today.
I didn’t do much today, which is EXACTLY what I needed after such a busy Saturday, and a busy week in general. I watched a little sports ball, though not as much as I thought I would. Josh came over to wish me happy birthday, which was the goddamn sweetest. He brought whisky, bless is heart. Liz and I started to watch the last Jumanji movie which…it’s not great

Day 2,507: A Normal Day!
Still no writing today. Blech. Totally feel out of rhythm in that regard. It’s just been…a busy week. An abnormal week.
I feel like I’ve basically made the same entry for the past week+…really the past MONTH…but it’s true. I feel out of whack, because things HAVE been out of whack. I’m doing my best to just roll with it. Take it one day at a time.
Today was pretty normal, though. Work was good. I was doing stuff for work today that I was totally used to doing! That was nice. Pups are great...

Day 2,506: Consumed
Today was a little rough. This whole week has been a little rough.
Thankfully…without going into the details, really, of what’s going on since it’s something I want to keep private and off the internet…thankfully it’s GOOD stuff that’s happening right now. But, it is stressful. And it’s something I’ve never done before. And it involves working with new people and figuring out how new things work and all that stuff that’s simultaneously exciting and terrifying and frustrating and inspiring.

Day 2,505: Hunting
The hunt continues!
Today was another weird, busy day. Lot of extra running around, but we got everything done, work was slow thank god given all the running around…
Didn’t write. Will tomorrow morning for sure.
Workouts are going well! I’m up to 182 push ups and sit-ups. Kinda. I did 182 seconds of planking instead of sit-ups

Twas a solid day.
Night!
