I'm starting to think maybe I can't keep doing this blog much longer.

Sunny today, and we made it to 86F.

A truly, horrendously bad day. For one, I spent another two hours just after dawn trying to get the last of this work on Bradbury Weather done, and it's still only almost finished. Dealing with copyediting is the death of the soul ( Read more... )

Awake again at 3 a.m. But this time I got up and did more than a full day of work...by 9 a.m.

I wrote 1,844 words on The Night Watchers. I began work on another new paleo' paper. I spent about an hour on the phone with Mike Polcyn talking about mosasaur intercranial circulation, CAT/tomography, and δ13C and how radioactive isotopes can help us ( Read more... )

Another freakishly warm day. But, you know, it's all a Chinese hoax or moonbat propaganda or Jewish laser beams operated by lizard people from the constellations Orion, Sirius, and Draco, but it's not possibly the metric fucktons of carbon dioxide and methane we're pumping into the atmosphere. Our high today was 84˚F, with a heat index of 86˚F ( Read more... )

And today we get storms. They'll be gone by tomorrow, but it's going to be a rough evening. Our high was 76˚F.

And I had a much better day. I slept a while six hours, and I actually managed to write this morning. The new Tinfoil Dossier story progresses. I also saw Steve White's final artwork for Living a Boy's Adventure Tale (the novella for the ( Read more... )

Autumn is here, I think. I don't mean calendar autumn, but actual autumn. We've had wild fire warnings the past two days. Our high today was only 74˚F. This weather makes Kathryn happy ( Read more... )

After the mire of yesterday, today was a very good day. Very hot as well. Our high was 92˚F, with a heat index of 101˚F.

I slept a little late, but was up at a little after 7 a.m. and working on the layout for Bradbury Weather by 7:30. Have I said this book is going to be huge? Anyway, I did layout until breakfast, after Spooky got up at 9 and ( Read more... )

Cold and overcast all day. Our high was 49˚F. But the forecast high for Xmas day? 74˚F.

I only managed 562 words on the new story today.

The afternoon's movie was Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989), which is definitely the second best film in the series (thus far). And yes, I skipped right past Temple of Doom, surely one of the worst ( Read more... )

A hot day. No storms. Currently, it's still 80˚F. I didn't leave the house ( Read more... )

It's overcast. The sky looks like snow. Currently, it's 34˚F.

The day off was not precisely a success. For one thing, there was work, some of it related to the upcoming book tour in support of Agents of Dreamland. And I'm no good at days off. I spent most of it angry and feeling like I was being a bum for not working. It's now been twelve full ( Read more... )

Partly cloudy at the moment, but there's snow coming, two to six inches by tomorrow. Currently, it's 24˚F, and the windchill is at 9˚F ( Read more... )
