Day 3,990: I Love That

Day 3,990: I Love That

Another good day! I got stuff done. Not a ton—I want to actually push a little harder tomorrow—but I got what I needed to get done, done. The book is back from the editor. I’ll need to get through that tomorrow. I finished my Author Note. I watched Wrexham get beat...

Day 3,989: I Can Tell You Miss Me

Day 3,989: I Can Tell You Miss Me

Contented sigh. Today was a good day. Whew! Not to say the days haven’t been good lately. The opposite: they’ve been great. I guess I mean today was a good work day. I finally, FINALLY got some stuff done I’d tried to do last week and just failed miserably at. Did it...

Day 3,988: Homes On Four

Day 3,988: Homes On Four

We picked up Grand Designs again. The last time we watched it, at least through our Channel 4 account, it was the day Coco died. We put it on after yoga while Coco was at the hospital to pass the time. We were waiting to get a phone call from the internist, to see how...

Day 3,987: J’Door

Day 3,987: J’Door

iPad is at 5% battery! Gotta make it a quick one tonight, I guess, lol. I write these journal entries on the same thing I write all my books on: my iPad pro from, like…2018, I think? Something like that. Maybe 2019 or 2020, I can’t remember. But I’ve written four...

Day 3,986: Dumps

Day 3,986: Dumps

Busy day today! I had a good amount of work to get done, which I did, AND I got to go out to a wine store in Pasadena and get a couple bottles of wine I’d wanted to grab since coming back from our trip to wine country. They had them. And I got to listen to my...

Day 3,985: Coliseum

Day 3,985: Coliseum

Today was the last Oakland A’s game in Oakland, ever. That’s, man…that is a weird, very messed up thing to be typing. The Oakland A’s have been a thing my entire life. They’ve been MY thing since…1989, or thereabouts, the year they won the World Series against the San...

Day 3,984: Time Is Wild

Day 3,984: Time Is Wild

Joy does this thing while I’m writing my journal entries for the night where she goes down onto the floor for a while, sniffs around for a while, and then comes to my side of the bed on her hind legs, ears back, and kinda of prances to ask me to lift her back up. We...

Day 3,983: Outage

Day 3,983: Outage

It’s dark in the house tonight. We lost power a few hours ago. There was the popping sound of an explosion a little ways off, and the power went out a split second later. Pretty sure that means it was a transformer blowing or something like that, but the DWP says...

Day 3,982: Ourson

Day 3,982: Ourson

A wonderful last day in Portland! Oh man, it was great. Quality time. Scott was even able to get home in time from work to join us on the trip over to the airport. The flight home was an adventure in the sense that there was a (very, very minor) issue with the plane...

Day 3,981: A Quick

Day 3,981: A Quick

Had a great day today! Haircuts, fried chicken, walks, a soak in the Kennedy School pool, bike rides with my bro, and just the best best BEST weather ever. A really, really wonderful day. Now, time for sleeps.
