Massages. I get it. I've only had one other one in my life so far, and it was fine. But today, my young friends...today...it was magic. The massages Liz and I got today were soooooo freaking goooood. They were at this place in up country on Haleakala, and it was...

We walked so much today. SO. MUCH. On the beach. On paths. On sidewalks. I got new sandals today. Right before we left, as I was packing, I realized that my trusty leather sandals I've had for years were missing. It was time to get new ones anyway, but I have no...

We made it. We're in Maui. I thought the flight out here was super quick and low key; Liz thought it was long 😛 I napped, I wrote my words, I played a little Switch (Mario Kart, still working on getting three stars on this particular circuit. It's tough!), and I...

We leave for Maui in the morning. I. Am. Excited. I do have to say, however...it is just not the same house without the pups. They went over to spend the night with Kristen and Argeesht since they're taking care of them whilst we're away. Yes. I am "that kind" of dog...

It's late, so this shall be a quick one. I had a middling day of writing today - 1,300 words. Two and a half sessions. I woke up tired. It seems to just happen that way with me sometimes 😜 But, what I did write was good. And even some rewriting. Swapping out a...

I feel like I had two whole days today, all wrapped into one. I wrote today till 2pm and got 2,300 words done. Enough for another full sequence, and a start on the next one. I was very, very happy about that. I don't think I've ever done that, written so many words by...

So, I wrote 3,000 words today. It was one long sequence of the book that I'd already written...but here we are. It's better now. MUCH better. Like, it has my neurons firing and exploding, 'better.' I'm sure frustration days will pop up again a few times over the next...

Liz and I watched Coco tonight, the Pixar movie from last year, and it was *wonderful*. Really, really enjoyed it. It was exciting, touching, visually stunning, and signature-ly Pixar. Bravo! 🙂 Today started early! I woke up a full hour and a half earlier than usual...

Sean Manaea, one of the A's younger starting pitchers, threw a no-hitter tonight against the best team (and, arguably, best offense) in baseball! The Ho and I got to watch it live together. It was pretty magical. I remember the last no-hitter I watched. It was 8 years...
