It's different this time around, the writing. I can feel a bullshit scene right now. I can sniff it much better and clearer than I used to...this most recent scene that stuck me in the mud--which came at the worst possible time, too, since it was in the midst of all...

Home and wiped the eff out. Whew! Traveling was pretty easy peasy, praise be. So glad to be home with the pups. Gonna pass out. Night!

Had breakfast today at the diner across the street from our hotel. It was okay. We both got bagels and lox. Satisfying, but nothing crazy special. Joe Hill, the writer, was randomly also there. I guess he's doing a signing over at Powell's tomorrow. Then, we came back...

Julianne and Mike have joined houses. Three cheers for the Weston-Ho clan! The wedding was absolutely gorgeous. It was cold af, but that's why I brought a nice warm sweater 🙂 And the cold was actually perfect becaaauuuseee...a storm was rolling in. But it didn't roll...

Tonight's title is "Uuuuuuuggghhhh" just because the A's just blew another save (that's 30 this year. THIRTY BLOWN SAVES). Otherwise, today was amazing. Slept in. Had some delicious breakfast. Went to Powell's and got some cool stuff including some sweet new t-shirts....

We're nestled into the Mark Spencer Hotel in downtown Portland. Long day of travel. We were up at 5:30 (well, first alarm went of at 5:30...we were UP closer to 5:50), flight was at 8:00. That was all smooth. I slept in and out on the plane, which is a couple-hour...

One more wedding. And saving the best for last, of course 😎 Liz and I have had a lot of weddings over the past 12 months. Eight of them, I think? We're at that age, I suppose. This the last one, at least that we know of/is scheduled at this point. Mike and...

It's super suuuuuper late...so this will be a quick one. Wrote. It was dope. Worked. It was busy. Got my car smogged and my teeth cleaned. Watched Temple of Doom with Josh and we podcasted about it. What a day! 🤓

I need to have more faith in myself sometimes. Writing today was a little rough. I have a couple scenes that I think are shoe leather. That, plus me not having written much over the past two weeks, and I was down on myself. Frustrated. I needn't be. It's simply a sign...

It was a rough week this past week for me creatively. Practically a zero. I did get ONE good, long writing session in, so it wasn't entirely lost. But, it was a hard one. It happens. I think it's always going to happen. Embracing that and just letting go of the idea...
