Day 3,789: A Step

Day 3,789: A Step

I lost a week on the front yard project last week, and I nearly lost another this week by not doing anything on it this weekend. I fixed that today. I started moving the big, heavy stuff. There’s several inches of mulch in the front planter-thing, several inches of...

Day 3,788: Your Problem Not Hers

Day 3,788: Your Problem Not Hers

Joy is NOT moving to let Liz into bed ahahahaha. It was a solid day today. Whew. Got my writing done in the morning, on time, got started on work on time, yoga and lunch like wham-o blam-o, which meant that we got to go over to Nicole and Alex’s and hang with their...

Day 3,787: She’s Still Here

Day 3,787: She’s Still Here

I watched Barbie. Or, rather, finished it tonight. Really enjoyed it. That could have been such a hollywood movie, y’all. It could have been pink and pretty and that’s it. But it wasn’t. It was thoughtful. It reached for some really, truly deep shit, and more often...

Day 3,786: Mazar

Day 3,786: Mazar

Daylight savings time is the best time. Let’s be honest: nobody wants “night” to begin at 4 fucking pm. This is the time of year I come alive. For whatever reason, that “extra” hour of daylight means everything to me. THAT SAID… …the transition is goddamn murder. I...

Day 3,785: Good Conversation

Day 3,785: Good Conversation

I caught up on some sleep today. Took the pups on walkos, took Coops to see the vet for his ear and got him some medications to make it go away, watched the Jedda Grand Prix, took a nap, cleaned the house, walked the pups again, helped set up for our friends Audrey...

Day 3,784: Hollywood

Day 3,784: Hollywood

Hollywood knows how to make a movie, man. Or at least we did by 1940. That’s the year Hitchcock came over to the states to start making movies here, and damn. It is a STEP. UP. For real. Movie is called Rebecca. It was fine overall, but it was a leap from his British...

Day 3,783: Thunder

Day 3,783: Thunder

Beautiful day out to start, and then it got super dark grey cloudy around 3 when it was time for therapy…and then there was thunder, lighting, and lots of rain. So wild! We rarely, rarely get weather like that on the coast. I don’t actually know why that is. It...

Day 3,782: Bandstands

Day 3,782: Bandstands

Joy does not like mouth-trumpet. Snacks hung out with me in my office for almost an hour today, and snuggled up close to me by the curtains, even. That’s the first time he’s EVER done anything like that, especially choosing to come close to me and settle down for a...

Day 3,781: Mon Coeur

Day 3,781: Mon Coeur

I did it. Three fuuuuuuuudgin hours of writing. Came up with some good stuff, too. Fun stuff. Stuff I’m looking forward to writing. Shit is going DOWN. Work was busy today. Busier than usual, but only because I’m onboarding a couple new projects. Looking forward to...

Day 3,780

Day 3,780

Worked late. But it was cool because I’d missed a message late last week that meant someone else was pulled in to handle a last-minute thing and I felt bad about that…and got to be the guy to swoop in and help out this time around. It all balances out. I dig that....
