2018 Movie #35: The 5th Wave

2018 Movie #35: The 5th Wave

My novel is *somewhat* Young Adult SciFi, and in that regard, I'm always curious about adaptations that are in the vein. Not that I've watched all that many movies recently that fall under that umbrella...but this one had been sitting in my queue for a couple years,...

Day 1,687: Where I’m At

Day 1,687: Where I’m At

I wrote another 2,600 words today. Definitely was short of my goal, however...even though Josh is coming over tomorrow for some TG1T recording, I have enough time before that to whip out 1,400 before he gets here, which will put me at my goal for the three days....

2018 Movie #34: Ocean’s 8

I'm a fan of the recent trend that takes male-dominated fare, and re-casts it with ladies. I think it's about time, and to be completely honest, I think women make just as compelling heroes as men do. This adaptation seems like a no-brainer: a band of women criminals...

Day 1,686: Bazinga!

Day 1,686: Bazinga!

Y'all, I wrote 4,200 words today! 🙂 Booooommm. I was actually going to go for 6,000 words, but then the Ho got off work early and she was hungry, so I put the pen down and had a bite and a drink with her instead...and it Twas GLORIOUS. Part of why the writing right...

Day 1,685: thumbin it

Day 1,685: thumbin it

Writing on ye olde iPhone tonight for whatever reason. Didn't feel like hauling down the iPad. Liz has to get up reealllyyyy early for her call tomorrow, so I'll make this quick: I had a good day with the pups, and with my writing. Not super productive...but good....

Day 1,684: Tony and Dubs

Day 1,684: Tony and Dubs

Today was a tale of two...tales. Anthony Bourdain died by suicide today, and the Warriors won the Finals for the second year in a row, and the third time in four years. Suicide is always a very personal matter for me. My youngest brother died by suicide back in 2006....

Day 1,683: BETTER

Day 1,683: BETTER

Omg, you guys...I feel like a human again. Yesterday was one of the oddest experiences of my life, and that is not hyperbole. I'm not one to suffer from migraines, thank you baby jesus, but what I had yesterday was close. I *think* I had a bad reaction to melatonin,...

Day 1,682: The Lost Day

So, this blog post never went up last night. I didn't write it. It's actually not the FIRST time it's happened where I legitimately forgot to write the post...it's the second, I think. But, this whole exercise of counting days really moved on from the "consecutive" or...

Day 1,681: Tie Tie

Day 1,681: Tie Tie

Yo! I am tiiirreeeeeddd tonight. Going to bed EARLY 😛 But, I want to have a kickass day tomorrow writing-wise. Writing today was a bit of challenge, but not so much in the anxiety department--although that certainly had at least something to do with it--but, no...it...

2018 Movie #33: Justice League

2018 Movie #33: Justice League

Right off the bat, I have to confess that I was not expecting this movie to be any good. Liz and I didn't see it in theaters, we had no interest in seeing it in theaters, and my viewing of it on Blu-ray was purely out of curiosity to see if it was as bad as I thought...
