It’s late! But not crazy late. Josh and I did pretty good tonight getting through the podcasting tasks. And the movie was good, too! The Lady Vanishes. Fun premise! Not perfectly executed, for sure, but the pieces were mostly there, and the premise was a legit...

I just had to move Joy so my elbow had somewhere to rest as I type this entry out. She make the sweetest little grunt, a cozy sound, to let me know I’d awakened her. It’s the little things like that I love so much about sharing our bed with the dogs. They’re so cozy....

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! It’s super late, so I’ll keep this one brief…but it was a wonderful day. We made ourselves dinner! Steak, potates, salad, and shishito peppers with a super fancy bottle of Napa cab. It was insanely good. Legitimately, insanely good. And...

So…I want to make a fruit tart for valentine’s day. Liz and I are making it together, but it’s my idea, my initiative. Two elements can be made in advance, the pastry cream and the tart pastry dough. So, we decided to make those tonight. I’m positive we botched both...

God, there’s so much I haven’t read. Sigh. I want to read so much more. And watch everything. And write everything. And get all of the housework done. And make all the money. Not as easy as it sounds. Impossible, even. But, here we are, trying anyway. I’m wiped. It’s...

Well…the Niners yet again have played in a super bowl and lost. We played well. REALLY well. Both defenses were elite. Both teams struggled mightily to score all game. It went all the way DEEP into overtime, but by the end, Patrick Mahomes had one more touchdown drive...

Tilde turned 12 today. She invited her entire 6th (7th?…pretty sure it’s 6th) grade class to the park near school, and they played capture the flag, the whipped cream game where you can’t use your hands and you have to eat a plate of whipped cream, ate pizza and...

Podcasted! It was actually a good one tonight; I enjoyed it. There was a baseline level of competence that felt like a step forward as far as I’m concerned. Certainly better than the last two we’ve watched. And it was actually charming, which is refreshing given that...

Miss you Coco. You died today one year ago. It’s been a blur since then, to be honest. I don’t have a concept of time when it comes to being without you. When I think of you, only the time we had together is something I can grasp. What a hard day that was a year ago....

I had a great writing session this morning. I identified my holdup. The section that was giving me the troubles, and so I set aside what I was doing to figure it out. And I did! A major chunk of it, at least. And there are a few other chunks to figure out, both plot...
