Day 2,434: Finishing Energy
I’ve written about ‘finishing energy’ on this blog before, for sure, but I am in the MIDST of that shit right now. It always takes so much more time and effort than I think. Every time. But…damn if it isn’t always a rush at the same time.
What I’m about to finish is the last little bits of Season 4 of Two Guys One Trek, which is the Animated Series. I have MOST of season 4 done, locked and loaded, ready to go, but tomorrow, the rest of it goes up.
Then…after I get some other projects done ...
“The Infinite Vulcan” (Star Trek: The Animated Series S1 Ep7)
There is a GIANT Spock out there in the universe somewhere! Josh shares about listening to TG1T out in the wild, we get surprisingly deep casting each of the Enterprise crew as plants . . . and the entire episode turns out to be about plants!!!

Day 2,433: Back in the groove…
Looking to get back into the groove tomorrow.
Last week was a little rough, although it was also dope. No…last week wasn’t rough. It was up and down. A little back and forth. And it ENDED with me starting a new phase of the rewriting process that I’m intimidated by and feel rusty at.
BUT…
I’m looking to re-find that groove. I need to allow myself time to play. To get it a little messy, and then clean it up. Trust that I have several passes on this thing to get it right. Trust my inspira...

Day 2,432: Cruising
Had a GREAT Saturday today…
Started off with a nice sleep in. Then I walked the pups and talked to my bro, who’s working hard on making their house up there amazing. It’s looking SO GOOD.
Then I spent most of the day editing TG1T. The rest of season 4 is almost in the can. I just need to do a final pass on the last 9 episodes, and then upload them into our podcasting host. We’ll be set through…October? Something like that. I think I’ll try to get through season 5—the movies—next month. We’...

Day 2,431: Zomg
Bro.
Broooooo.
So tired. This week was a doozy. In a GREAT way, thank baby jesus. I was very, very productive this week, even with yesterday’s wipe-out day included. Writing sessions were great. Work was great. Playing music was great. Pups are great. Liz is great.
Life is good.
I am wiped the fuck out, though

Day 2,430: A ‘Off’ Day
Today was an ‘off’ day. Not in the sense that I took it off from work. Quite the opposite. I was busy as fuuuuuck.
I mean ‘off,’ in that I just felt…off today. I was tired. Much more tired than normal. So, tired, I couldn’t even do my writing sesh this morning, and I needed to take a nap midday for an hour just to reset.
It worked! Thankfully. It meant I also had to skip my afternoon writing session because I was working later than normal because of the aforementioned midday nap. But, it w...

Day 2,429: Late!
Omg, it’s already bed time and here I am sitting down to write this.
Podcasting with Josh and it was that fire.
Played music again with bear, and it was that fire.
Work was also that fire.
So was writing!
It was a great day, even if I was exhausted the whole time. Still getting used to waking up a half hour early. It’s only been three days, lol…gonna take a couple weeks. But, it’s worth it. I’m really, REALLY enjoying the morning writing sessions with more time.
Pups are in bed...

Day 2,428: Jump Street
Long days.
Still adjusting to waking up a half hour earlier. Crikey. But, damn, do I love having a full hour of writing in the morning. It’s soooo goooood.
Work was a little less busy today, but still pretty hectic. Getting a new project up off the ground. But, it’s going well so far. Writing is going well. Playing music today was super fun, too. Liz and I played together. Then we watched 21 Jump Street which we haven’t seen for a while. I pulled clips from it today for work and it made me...

Day 2,427: Sold!
I sold my workout equipment today. I never used it.
It was a Bowflex adjustable weight set, plus a collapsible bench I bought that I also never used. The dumbbells went up to 90lbs each. Way more than I’d ever use.
I struggled for a long time with working out. I just couldn’t stay consistent with it. I’m not struggling now, and the difference is pretty clear: it stuck this time because I focused on just creating a habit. I have no fitness “goal,” at least in terms of my body. I do have goa...
“The Survivor” (Star Trek: The Animated Series S1 Ep6)
A shifting squid-man is loose on the Enterprise, we lament how often we’re stuck on the ship in the show thus far, Josh realizes he’s digging Arex, and Josh and Ira cast the Animated Series crew as superheroes with superpowers and a group catch-phrase.
