I was up at 6 a.m., and it was 10F. Here, in Birmingham, Alabama. Though, it's not as absurd as the winter wonderland smothering New Orleans and all those other places still deeper in the Deep South. Anyway, our high was 39F. Tonight will be a little warmer than was last night.

And no, I did not finish with the galley pages of Zoetrope Bizarre. I ( Read more... )

Bitter cold here today and overcast. But at least no snow. Our high was 26F (windchill 15), and our low last nigh was 19.(F (windchill 12). And it will be colder tonight. Meanwhile, I saw video of a snowball fight on Bourbon Street, which was strange, indeed.

Sunny today. Our high was 59F, after a low last night of 28F.

I almost decided I would not make an entry tonight. I'm not in the mood to talk about the nightmares (which were at least alligator free), or the difficulty working, or the afternoon movie (David Leitch's Atomic Blonde [2017]), or...etc ( Read more... )

Sunny today. Our high was 55F. Last night's low was 28F.

I'm about to bury myself in House of Leaves and Angela Carter to try and find my voice again, to find the drive, what the fuck ever I mean. I am not even sure I know. I spent the night dreaming of fucking alligators, and I have no idea why ( Read more... )

Sunny today. A high of 57F.

No writing today. No work today. Nothing of worth at the end.

The afternoon's film was Matt Reeves' The Batman (2022). We finished Season Two of Yellowjackets (second watching) last night, so tonight new episodes of Dexter: Original Sin and Landman (which I was ready to give up on, but it bought itself some time with ( Read more... )
