I’m writing this outside right now as Snacks and Joy are wrestling like they’re on Monday night raw. It’s dark. After bed time. Josh is gone from podcasting, the crickets are singing up a storm. But my office needed to be locked up, and Snacks was outside waiting to see Joy, so I let her out. They’re loving life.

It was a good day! I made good progress on the outline. Some ideas for Drake’s internal arc, the stuff he’s dealing with. Work was slow. Been slow this week so far, no question. But it should pick up next week it sounds like. I’ll enjoy that. Better to be busy than slow.

Joy is now tearing around the backyard as fast as she can go. She’s a maniac. She just runs and runs and runs and Snacks just watches her go in circles. Now they stopped and Joy is hiding from him behind the little brick wall, ready to pounce. Those two, I swear. So wholesome.

Anyway…podcasting was good, too. We watched Poltergeist. It’s fun. It’s a good entry-level horror film. It gets crazy enough to be scary if you’re impressionable. If you want to get into scary movies, it’s a good place to start. It walks a fine line between intense and not intense.

Night night.
