Day 3,917: HAWT
Man…it was hooooottttt today. Really, really hot. It was supposed to be 97, I think, and it topped out at 100. And no breeze in the evening to blow it away. Yikes. We stayed in all day, obviously. Took it easy. I watched racing and basketball. Hung out with the pups....
Day 3,916: Forum Days
We had a lovely evening, Liz and I tonight. We ate food, drank wine, munched on a couple small fruit tarts from Porto’s…and watched Air Force One, which HOLDS UP. Pretty much. It’s great. Harrison Ford is great in it. I remember watching that movie in theaters and...
Day 3,915: Stage!
Late, so this is a quick one tonight, but…we hit 100 pages on the manuscript today, podcasted with Josh, got all my Netflix work done… A good day. Night night!
Day 3,914: Peer
Our plum tree is ripening right now. Last year was the first year it actually bore fruit, and they weren’t very good. Kind of tasteless. But this year, already I can tell they’re going to be much better. I wonder if it’s because the tree is just maturing into an...
Day 3,913: Steady Now
We’re watching The Hunt for Red October, and while Alec Baldwin is…fine in it, but coming off Harrison Ford playing the same character, we both much prefer Harrison, obviously…it is sooooo goooood. The movie is SO good. I get why Tom Clancy was such a sensation. What...
Day 3,912: Romans
First day today where I haven’t hit the pages, but there’s a couple reasons for that: one, I had to spend one of my hours this morning brainstorming a scene that wasn’t quite ready when it came down to it, and that set me irrevocably behind on the day, because two: it...
Day 3,911: On More
Seven pages is what I got through today, the first day I haven’t quite hit ten...but that’s okay. Still close enough to just make it up tomorrow. Took a nice nap. Got enough rest this weekend tonight, I hope. I think I did. I could push through right now and get those...
Day 3,910: Close!
Almost forgot to write this one. Already have my head on my pillow and lights out. But my phone is here to save me. Got my pages done—Glory 4 is at 60 of them. Almost through act one. Saw Longlegs with Liz and Jared. It was fine. Not great, but still a ton of fun....
Day 3,909: Gaze
It late. Podcasted for the first time in a couple weeks because of all that traaaavel. It was so nice to get back in that groove, get back to the Hitchcock. We’re almost to the 50s! Wild. Movie wasn’t that great, but that’s okay. We still had fun. And still great to...
Day 3,908: Patriot Games
We finished Patriot Games tonight, and man…that movie is way better than I remember it being when I watched it as a teenager. It slaps. Ford is great in it, the finale is great, all the twists and turns are great. It’s super duper solid. Four stars, I say! Four stars...
