Day 2,152: Night

A quick one tonight. Today was great. Intense. This past week was intense and talking about it all in therapy really made that clear

Day 2,151: Le Sigh

I really struggle with travel and getting back into the swing of things. It really throws me off. I thought that having the buffer day this week would help…and now that I really think about it, it did…but it still has an effect on me.

My resolve is weakened. Or my focus. It’s more my focus.

I could have figured out a way this week to get all my writing done. Even with everything going on at work. I could have, but I didn’t. That makes me feel guilty.

Instead, I chose things other than writing...

Day 2,150: Swift

Has to be a swift one tonight. Josh and podcasted. We watched Raiders of the Lost Ark and we talked about his short film “The Black Box.”

It was an excellent night. So good. Great watches. Great conversation. Great day, too, got tons of work done. Got to work on time and wrote in the morning, which was glooooorious.

Very content tonight.

Day 2,148: Gotcha

It’s Coco’s “gotcha day” today.

We adopted her into our family five years ago. I can’t believe it’s only been that long. I can’t believe we had Cooper for two years without Coco. It seems like she’s always been here, that she’s always been our dog.

Of course, she wasn’t. She was someone else’s for the first half or so of her life. Docs estimated she was between 5-7 years old when she made her way to us. She was found on the streets of Downey. In the middle of the road, I think. And if I remem...

Day 2,147: It’s good to be home

Gonna keep this entry quick tonight…we’re home. Coops is down on the carpet munching on a Whimzee. Coco has had her gray muzzle treat. Bear is in bed next to me. Life is good.

It’s good to be home.

Day 2,146: Rainy Day

Twas a rainy day today in Portland.

Rainy, but mild. Not a storm. Ie- there was no wind to speak of, it wasn’t super cold. Just gray and wet.

How perfect that this storm was coming in and it was gorgeous for the days leading up to and including Scott and Addie’s wedding (did I mention that the weather yesterday and last night was absolutely, gloriously perfect?)…and the day after their wedding, the rain returns? Apparently it was rainy and wet for the past week or so, as well…so it really cle...

Day 2,144: The Big Day…

The big day…

…is tomorrow.

Scott and Addie get married!

Oh, shit, it was also my birthday today. I literally almost forgot that because for the past couple hours, I’ve been writing out the speech and ceremony for tomorrow. I’m officiating my brother’s wedding. Did I mention that? Ya. No pressure.

Actually, now that I’ve written it all out and said it a couple times out loud to Liz, I’m not worried about it at all. I definitely was worried. No longer. It’s going to be great. And it’ll be super...
