I remember the invasion when my brother died. Our house suddenly became filled to the rafters with people. Sometimes it helped, but mostly it was a very painful reminder of just how much things had changed in an instant, and how they were never going to be the same....

Something I’ve learned about storytelling: just because I’m emotional telling a story doesn’t necessarily mean the audience will also be emotional. It’s a good start, for sure. Requisite, even, I think…though maybe not. Maybe one can tell a story wholly rational and...

Doing the finances. In between stuff for work. It’s a hustle. For sure. But it has to be done. I’m late on it already. Sigh. I feel like I’ve been “behind” for several weeks, now. Not able to catch up. Push push push. It’s exhausting. But…I am getting it done. Little...

Tonight’s fine distinction is between cardinal numbers versus ordinal numbers. Cardinal numbers are for counting. 1, 2, 3, etc. Three sheets. Ordinal numbers are for ordering. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. The third inning. Been a long, long time since I last ran into this...

Watched There Will Be Blood tonight. I wanted to watch something really good. It’s what I needed. Don’t really know why, but I could just feel it. I needed to watching something really good, and There Will Be Blood is. First time watching it since…theaters, I think?...

I. Am. Beat. Home, though, so that’s wonderful. Wiped from travel. Happy to be with the pups. Miss Liz. Sleeeeeeeep.

Busy day! I feel like I actually got to see Austin because we walked around all day. Walked to breakfast and coffee, down to the waterfront and then back. So many cute neighborhoods. Then dinner at a dope Italian place called Juniper. Capped it off by visiting a...

Twas a travel day today. At least for half of it. Woke up at the buhcrack and drove my ass to the airport. Long term parking was actually gonna be cheaper than taking a lyft there and back, which is kinda wild. I think it was because I had to get there so early. But...

I was just reaching to pull out the dictionary for another fine distinction…and it’s not there. I left it somewhere in the house. Sigh. That is to say: I know I haven’t done one in a while, but the fun with that book has not been abandoned. I’ve just been very, very...

Got some bad news today. Not about me, specifically. Someone else. Which means I can’t say specifically, except that I’m very sad. Hard to write an entry tonight because that’s really all that’s on my mind, and it’s just not my story to tell. The pups are warm. I...
