Wed. Jan. 24, 2024: Now We Have Slush

Wednesday, January 24, 2024
Almost full moon
Uranus Retrograde
Snowy and slushy
I like the way this date look, don’t you? 24 of 2024? If you want to get into the numerology of it, it is 1-24-2024 which adds up to 1 + 2 + 4 + 2 + 0 + 2 + 4 = 15, which breaks down to 1 + 5 = 6. Six is a stable number, often meaning unconditional love. In tarot, it’s often a number of victory (wands) or generosity (cups, pentacles) or even travel (swords). It’s welcome after the chaos of the 5s.
I would love a quiet, steady, loving day.
It will be a sad day for one of my closest friends, though, whose beloved cat is crossing the Rainbow Bridge today, and I mourn with her.
We have two serial episodes going live today.
The first is from ANGEL HUNT:
Episode 105: Working Magic with Zeke
How can working with someone so deadly feel so right?
The second is from DEADLY DRAMATICS:
Episode 55: Herbie the Actor Comes Clean
Herb confesses to Nina his part in the con.
I double checked dates. This blog will celebrate its 20th anniversary on April 2. I should do something special for that, shouldn’t I? I remember not starting the blog on April 1 because that’s April Fool’s Day, one of my least favorite days of the year. It originally started on Blogspot.
In spite of all the worldbuilding necessary, I wrote two episodes of REP. Right now, there’s humor, but not comedy. I have to decide if I can build actual comedy organically (which sounds like a contradiction, but it can be built structurally if it starts organically out of character and situation) or if it is more of a dramedy. I won’t really know until the first draft is complete.
Even though the writing is much slower on this than the others, I’m enjoying it. I do have trouble, though, switching between REP and LIGHTHOUSE LADY. Much harder than LL and anything else. Not sure why. Which puts me back a little on where I wanted to be for LL, but I’m still in decent shape.
Did a round of promos for the re-release of “Severance.” Turned around six script coverages before heading for yoga. The snow wasn’t bad. Gentle yoga was good. The Fitness for Yoga class was challenging, but I liked it better than I expected to like it. I was intimidated by the TRX harnesses, but it turned out I really liked them.
Home, dinner, read. The dickhead downstairs used my parking spot, so I had to switch down to his. How hard is it to park in the same slot, like everyone else in the lot? But no, he has to do whatever the hell he feels like. At least he didn’t park across multiple slots, like he usually does. And talking to him does nothing.
I expected to be in so much pain I couldn’t move this morning, but I’m not. I definitely feel that I worked muscles that don’t usually get attention, but in a good way.
Today’s kind of yucky and mucky out there. We had a couple of inches of snow overnight. It’s supposed to change over to rain.
On today’s agenda: another episode of REP. Finish the episode of LEGERDEMAIN I started a few days ago. I have to drop off our mail-in voting applications with the City Clerk at City Hall. Pick up some basics at the store like bread, cat litter, cat treats. Pick up the 15 library books that arrived in a clump. Turn around five coverages. Finish a book for review. Hopefully, I can go to tarot. I’m having a terrible time with keyboard and cursor issues on this machine. I hope this laptop will limp along for another month or so, until I can send it in for repair again,, and I have to have something else to work on in the interim. My warranty’s up in May, so I have to do it before then.
Have a good one!
