Day 2,359: Inspiration
Had a great talk with my friendo Josh tonight about...well, kinda about giving up. On projects. And how uncomfortable that can be, and how uncertain it is to feel like you’re at that crossroads. Even if it’s temporary, which it always is with the deepest of creative...
Day 2,358: Cannot Contain
We got word this morning that our—and I do mean “our—dj controller is on its way from Florida. It should be here Thursday by the end of the day. It got me so excited, I literally couldn’t work this morning. I had to listen to a bunch of music to prepare. I’ve been out...
Day 2,357: Fast and Loose
Good day today. I’m not sure how particularly good my writing was, but I’m also not sure if it was particularly bad. And that’s good! Because I just sat down and wrote. That was my goal. To let go. That’s the key for me. Just let the fuck go, Ira. Stop thinking. Stop...
Day 2,356: Future Perfect
There’s so much music I’ve liked over the past decade or so that I’ve never got the chance to mix into a set. I’m listening to one such track right now. Future Perfect by Way Out West. The Henry Saiz remix. I don’t even know if Henry is still making music. I don’t...
Day 2,357: GOTCHA!
Oooohhhh hohoho here it is. The LAST DAY I was missing. That's pretty incredible you guys...I went from October 28, 2013 to April 11, 2020 -- over six years -- without missing a single post. And then I went the next three-plus years and only missed three more, only...
Day 2,355: Weekend
It felt like a weekend today. The first one that’s felt like that in a long time. Liz and I hung out all day today and it was lovely. We watched TV together and ate food together and walked the pups, both morning and night, and we watched The Winter Soldier together...
Day 2,354: A Good Death
Listening to soundtrack music right now, and I’m reminded just how impactful a proper death can be in a well-told story. I mean the death of a character that cuts you right to the core, that feels real and makes you think about real life. And, I suppose that’s why...
Day 2,353: Animal Crossing
Liz is out in the living room right now playing Animal Crossing on the switch. She was just voice chatting with her sister, J, and her sister’s friend because they were visiting together on J’s island. It was very, very cute. Very endearing to hear them talking about...
Day 2,352: Easy Rain
It rained today. It was raining tonight, even, as we took the dogs out. But it was that light rain that you can stand in and not get instantly wet, but you can hear it and feel it. Easy rain. That’s most often how it rains in LA, easy rain. It rarely rains HARD here....
Day 2,351: Last Day
Today was my last day of taking antibiotics. I’m so happy about that. Almost happier than my flu-like symptoms disappearing 😂 I’ve never taken antibiotics like this, which make my mouth taste bitter, make me nauseous even when I’ve taken them with food, and...
