Day 3,642: Boosted!
Got my covid and flu shots today. I’m all boosted up! Or…at least I will be in two weeks. Right in time for the writers’ conference.
Worked on that some today. Presentations are starting to roll in from speakers. Still a metric shit ton to follow up with, but the process has started. Still a ton to do. I have so much to do, it’s kind of freezing – like, overload, you know? But, I’m making a list and then tackling the easiest things on that list to start with. I’ll find a rhythm. Waiting a bit...

Day 3,641: Way To Go
A scattered day, but not in a chaotic sense. In the sense that I got several different things done in several different areas. Work. Check. Coopey new food (and old food returned. Check. Some cleaning. Check. Some 20Books Vegas stuff. Check. Nap. Check. Pups. Check. Watched a little sports. Check.
I’m definitely still recovering from having been so busy with the book. No question. But…I’ll be ready to dive back in soon. Soon.
Night night.

Day 3,640: Exploe
A quick one tonight I think just because I feel like it. Not crazy tired, not super late, none of that. Just…ready to snuggle into bed I guess. Joy is curled up against me. Liz is next to me. We watching some cute IG videos.
It was a great day today. Not much sports, actually, but I got some other stuff done instead. Whew! Night night.

Day 3,639: Transom
I sent off the cleaned up and revised copy of the manuscript to my cowriter today—tonight, I guess—and it’s off to the “just in time” team to read and make sure we didn’t miss anything too egregious. I do have a couple more very, very minor tweaks to make…but the big milestone I reached today was that I came up with a solution to a plot hole that I’m rather happy with. And it was pretty easy. I think it makes a lot of sense. We’ll see.
Watched Us today, amongst it all. A few sittings. I was…a...

Day 3,538: So Weird
Making this a short one because it is bed time and I have to get my ass up in the morning to get this book done.
Took Coops to get his eye checked and it’s healed! He had a little ulcer there that they cleaned out, gave us some antibiotic drops, and now he’s all good. Whew!
Slept in. Took a nap. Still tired. But, so worth it to go see Tale of Us last night.
Night night.
Day 3,637: Tale of Us
Got to see Tale of Us tonight at the LA historic park and it was DOPE. Their visuals are top notch. Anyma is one half of the duo, and he’s been one of our favorite producers lately. He played all the hits. The crowd was chill. Happy to be there. A grand old time.
It’s LATE…so night night.

Day 3,636: Screem
We watched The Ring tonight. It’s funny, I didn’t realize that movie was PG-13. And it plays like it; no real gore or violence. But, the crazy thing is: it’s still scary as fuck. Or, at least it was back in the day. It’s lost its punch, no question, because it was so successful, it’s now become a cliche. But man…at the time? It was the scariest movie I’d ever actually gone to see in the theater. That movie was my gateway into watching legitimately scary movies. I didn’t know I actually liked the...

Day 3,635: Five O’Clock
Okay. One of those unexpected work days. Sigh. I haven’t hardly made any progress on my book…but that changes tomorrow. Has to. No way around it.
Night night.
