Day 384: Akira, et al

Day 384: Akira, et al

The movie is almost 30 years old. It's crazy to think about, actually. It was years ahead of its time, in terms of its scope and tone. I remember when I watched it for the first time. My college roommate David had the special edition DVD, the one that came in the tin...

Day 383: Shiny and New

Day 383: Shiny and New

Okay...well maybe I'm not feeling "new" per se...but I did finish a successful day of work, I *definitely* have worked hard enough to deserve a couple days off, and I just took a shower and shaved. I'm a new man! I, like, *legitimately* shaved tonight. With a...

Day 382: Low Battery

Day 382: Low Battery

Man, you and me both Mr. iPad. I was supposed to plug in my iPad to charge today, but I forgot. Whoops. Came back to write this entry tonight, and it was on 2%. That's not enough to write a blog on 😛 So, I watched some big cat videos on my phone for a couple minutes...

Day 381: Slipping

Day 381: Slipping

This one is gonna be a short entry, only because I'm rather pooped. 'Twas a long day. I filled a vacancy (sadly not in my own building, but still a victory), did a bunch of showings, visited the office, and did other random work. It basically took half my work day,...

Day 380: Time

Day 380: Time

Time was such a recurrent theme today. In the morning, whilst walking the doggies, I listened to the first half of an interview with Christopher Nolan about his latest flick Interstellar...he was saying that in the absence of having a flesh-and-blood villain (a point...

Day 379: 52,000

Day 379: 52,000

Tonight has to be a quick entry. It's late 😛 It was a long, kind of frustrating day. Filled with things that I'd rather not have had to deal with, but it is what it is. I still got as much work done as I could, although I did stop 30 minutes earlier than I'd have...

Day 378: Forty Sevens

Day 378: Forty Sevens

I learned something magical today: the number 47 is everywhere. I had no idea. I'm a self-proclaimed Trek aficionado and even I'd never heard of it before. How did that happen? It's even on Wikipedia. I'm debating whether or not to explain it here on my blog, or just...

Day 377: Interstellar, etc.

Day 377: Interstellar, etc.

Today was one of those weird days where you don't really have a plan, and then everything kind of just happens like a series of dominoes. You're just kind of swept along for the ride. I got to sleep in a bit, no naps, but it was still a fairly restful day, actually....

Day 376: Rest

Day 376: Rest

I was up and ready to rock this morning. I'd written my pages and I was about to dive in on where I'd left my editing lesson the night before...when I realized that I was already feeling pretty fatigued. And, looking at only taking one day off and then working for 6...

Day 375: Connecting

Day 375: Connecting

I'm not sure why, but my new keyboard suddenly is starting to have issues connecting with my iPad. Makes me think that I might need to exchange it *again*...which is a freaking bummer, man. I just did some reading about pairing, and I think there's one thing to try...
