“The Practical Joker” (Star Trek: The Animated Series S2 Ep3)
KIRK IS A JERK! The Enterprise keeps pulling wacky, zany, practical jokes on its crew, Ira remembers watching this episode when he was only three or four years old, we debate who on the Enterprise can take a joke, and we both do a deep dive on what we watched as kids...
Day 2,517: So Fast
Things move fast sometimes. That’s what I find myself thinking about tonight. Most of the time, things move slow. Too slow, even. And we kind of count on that, the slowness. But, then they surprise you and move quickly. I had a good Sunday, guys. Finally. A couple...
Day 2,516: Coco’s Nose
Making it a quick one tonight. Been a hell of a week. Not all bad at all, to be sure, but intense...also, to be sure. Ran around town today with Liz. Been doing a lot of that lately and I see it keeping up as long as we’re working on this particular project. Talked...
Day 2,515: I’m Every Woman
Long day. Long week...but a good one. Genuinely. This week has had it’s ups and downs, but for me personally, at least, it was a very good week. The world continues to burn. Rest in peace Ruth Bader Ginsburg. You were a champion for women, and you can never be...
Day 2,514: I Can’t Go Back
The last few weeks have been a struggle. I’ve struggled to write. I’ve struggled to work out. I’ve felt tired, overwhelmed and burned out. I know I’ve talked about that to some degree during that time, but I don’t think I’ve talked about it enough. I’ve fallen out of...
Day 2,513: Two Full Weeks
Man...I went through two full weeks without writing. Damn. I fixed that today, though. The good news is that the book is still right there, raring to go. The story is great. The scene I’m working on is almost fully assembled...it was a good writing day. Work was...
Day 2,512: A Good Day
Today was a good day. Thank lawd, it was a good day. Work went great. Writing just now went great, I had a great, great idea for this opening sequence, a true crisis moment just presented itself and it’s so simple and so clear...it’ll be a cinch to write. What is a...
Day 2,511: Ouch
Dammit. I banged my foot putting together a shelf tonight. Got it pretty good. In other news...the Ikea shelf that I’ve been trying to add to my office for literally the past month and a half is FINALLY HERE. Hooray! It actually came in a few days ago, but I’ve been...
“Bem” (Star Trek: The Animated Series S2 Ep2)
In which a dude can split his body into multiple parts! This week, we look ahead to the fast-approaching end of this animated show and what lies beyond...the movies...we decide the Arex is massively underappreciated, and...that, though our titular character doesn't...
Day 2,510: Older
One year older today. I didn’t do much today, which is EXACTLY what I needed after such a busy Saturday, and a busy week in general. I watched a little sports ball, though not as much as I thought I would. Josh came over to wish me happy birthday, which was the...
