The rain has finally petered out. It was just dry enough this morning to take the pups out on a proper walk—incidentally the last time Joy has gone number 2 as far as we can tell…which means she’ll probably wake me up in the middle of the night to go outside and do...

Watched a couple movies today, actually. It was just the right kind of day for it; dark, cold, wet…and oh so sleepy and cozy inside. But what we just finished was Kelce, about Jason Kelce of the Eagles. Very sweet doc. Highly recommend. It was about many things. One...

So so wet and rainy today! It’s been steady rather than a deluge, which is nice, but you know what’s even NICER? Having a roof that doesn’t leak! 🙂 Huzzah for that. Big thanks to Lin Ho for helping us with that. Couldn’t have done it without you! No leaks. Warm and...

Rain is coming to LA. Big rain, apparently. We’ll see how big it really is. We. Shall. See. Feeling strong with yoga. Back in the flow with that, which feels nice. I got front yard work done before the rain comes. I got my car smogged FINALLY. I was supposed to do...

We’re on diarrhea watch here at the Ho-Heinichen house. Joy got into a tube of lotion today and we didn’t catch it until she was inside the damn thing and licking at the lotion. Ugh. She’s already had poosplosions twice, so maybe it’s already out of her system, but I...

I wish I was better at reading. Not reading and, like, understanding. I think I’m pretty good there. I always have been, it seems. Maybe not, but at least as long as I can remember. Reading feels like it’s always made sense to me. I mean…I wish I read more these days....

A really solid day today. Whew. Didn’t get my outlines finished, but that’s okay. I will soon. And I got a crap ton of Netflix work done. AND got the house ready for our guest, oh, AND got the green bin loaded with a bunch more to take away tomorrow. I didn’t get that...

I was literally under the weather today. Not sick! Thank gawd. But…this weird warm, dry weather, full of pollen and stuff, and this pressure change coming with the storm that’s about to roll in, it had me literally under the weather. Little achy, headachy, and...

It’s hard to hear that someone you looked up to—someone who’s even helped you—is in reality a toxic person. I’ve heard it enough times, now, from enough other people and their personal experiences to know it’s true deep in my bones. I really dislike this kind of...

The 49ers are going to the Super Bowl for the third time in my adult life. I do remember the niners winning in the eighties; at least a couple of them. Probably the last two times. And then again in ‘94; I remember that one more clearly. But as an adult? In the era...
