The sun came back in earnest today. Our high was 86F.

And I do not even know what I can recall about today. And I am quite sure it does not matter one wit whether I can or can't.

I was out of bed at 4:30 a.m., and I was writing well before 5 a.m. And something amazing happened. Suddenly everything clicked and the section of The Sun Always Shines ( Read more... )

This afternoon we were able to see Denis Villeneuve's Dune (Part Two) at the McWane iMax free of charge. And so while I had serious doubts about trying to watch an actual film on iMax, nothing to lose. Kathryn and I agree that the results are mixed. At times, it was fucking ( Read more... )

I felt so bad most of the day, I'm not even sure what the weather was like. Cloudy? Rainy? Some sun? Our high was 71F.

The afternoon's movie was Tarantino's The Hateful Eight (2015).

An unremarkable day. Sunny. Mostly. Our high was 71˚F, and it is now 60˚F. I should have gone outside, but I did not. I haven't now since the 4th, when we got our boosters.

I wrote 1,271 words today on "Nature is a Language."
