Day 2,456: A quick one

Day 2,456: A quick one

Going to bed. Need to wake up on time tomorrow morning. I’ve been a little cramped for time the past couple days, and I don’t like that shit. Thinking about moving my workouts to lunchtime as well...get a little more morning time. I don’t know. We’ll see. Good day...

Day 2,455: Sports

Day 2,455: Sports

Live sports are back. Almost. I watched the A’s play an exhibition game tonight versus the Giants. We were two weeks away from Opening Day when the pandemic hit back at the end of March. This is the first time I’ve watched my team play since. It was...surreal. And...

Day 2,454: It’s late

Day 2,454: It’s late

It’s late. Decided to stay up a little past bed time to watch this week’s episode of I’ll be Gone in the Dark, which is the Michelle Macnamara/Golden State Killer documentary on HBO Max right now. Might be HBO proper, in fact I’d be surprised if it isn’t, but we’re...

Day 2,453: Coming Together

Day 2,453: Coming Together

The opening to this new novel is coming together, damnit. It’s a slow process for me right now. Which I...I was going to say “hate.” But, that’s not true. I don’t hate it. I love it, actually, spending all this time on these scenes, getting them right. Or, at least...

Day 2,452: And, Scene

Day 2,452: And, Scene

I wrote a scene today. Top to bottom. And it’s a solid one, I think. We’ll see how it reads. But, I think it works. This opening sequence is still longer than I want it to be, or I thought I wanted it to be, I suppose. But...I like it now. It’s exciting. As long as...

Day 2,451: Caught Up

Day 2,451: Caught Up

Coco is sitting upright on the edge of the bed tonight waiting for Liz to come to bed and give her a second nighttime treat. I say “second,” because she already had one from me. I finally caught up today at work. I’m caught up. Finally! It feels good. I’m all set up...

Day 2,450: Le Quick

Day 2,450: Le Quick

It’s a half hour past bed time! Ye gads! I’ll make this one quick: Writing was great. Finished the scene I was working on! It’s close! I think...we’ll see 🙂 Work was busy AF, but I got my shit done. Whew! Helped Bear with an audition. That went great! Walked pups....

Day 2,449: Booker

Day 2,449: Booker

We watched The Old Guard tonight on Netflix. It was good! Clunky towards the end, but good. Thumbs up from me, it’s worth watching. I’m still not quite caught up with my work. I thought I was going to fly through this new workflow, but it’s a little more involved than...

Day 2,448: Behind

Day 2,448: Behind

I did some catching up today on my work. Last week, I spent most of the time behind because of some extra stuff that was thrown my way, and I just never really managed to catch up. Did that today. Most of the way, anyway. Hopefully I can make up the rest of the small...
