Day 4,372: Welcome…

We didn’t end up watching The Babadook tonight after all. Liz had to go elsewhere, and we really want to watch it with her. It’s a movie we’ve been looking forward to watching together, her and I, for quite some time. Like…two years? Which makes it sound like it’s...

Day 4,371: Comforter Season

It’s late. Gonna skip the fine distinction tonight, but we’ll be back with it…well, actually, probably Saturday since tomorrow is a podcasting night and I don’t think I’ll do one then either. So, we’ll be back at it in two days 🙂 I got up and wrote. Wrote in the...

Day 4,370: Strictly Ribald

We have a blanket pile on our bed right now. It’s. The. Best. It’s cold out! Only for a couple days, I think, then several days of decently warm, and then back to cold-ish again. It’s not thaaaaat cold. Right now it’s only 57 out. But that is WAY cooler than it was...

Day 4,366: Holland

Making it another brief entry tonight because it’s already snooze time and I still want to do some Roman Reading. Gary and Derrick are having a baby. She’s coming soon, so they had a baby shower today and we went. It was the most heartwarming thing in the world....

It’s late so I’m gonna be quick about it. Long week! My lord. And gonna be a busy weekend too. All good stuff though, thank goodness. Work was busy. Busy busy busy. I got everything done I needed to, though. For the most part. I do need to get some uploads going over...

Day 4,364: Lifeline

Today’s fine distinction is “Accuracy” versus “Precision.” So, to be “accurate” has to do with how close you are to the correct answer. To be “precise” has to do with how close or fine you are measuring. Fuzzy. So, here’s the example the book uses. A jar has, in fact,...

Day 4,363: A Quick

Making it quick tonight bc I’m wiiiiped…but a good day. Rough writing-wise in that I just wasn’t that productive, but I think I might have found fresh resolve at the very end. Tomorrow will be a better day. Night night.
