Sunny today. Windy. A high of 61F.

I hardly slept, and I was ill, but I worked. I did the last bit of tweaking on The Ultraviolet Alphabet, did the layout on Sirenia Digest 222 (magic number), and Gordon D. did a quick turnaround for us, so Spooky was able to send the PDF out early in the afternoon. Subscribers ought to have it. And I got in an ( Read more... )

A sunny day. The high was 93F. The weather is about to turn very hot again.

The cicadas are howling in the trees.

This morning, I let myself sleep a little late, but Blixa got me up at 6:30. I did proofreading and layout for Sirenia Digest 220, Gordon got the PDF done, and Spooky sent it out to subscribers this afternoon. "Dark Adapted Eyes" is ( Read more... )

Some sun today and no rain. Our high was a muggy 80F, with a heat index of 82F.

A busy day. Most of the morning was spent putting together Sirenia Digest 216, which has gone out to the subscribers (much thanks to Gordon D. and Spooky). And I spent an hour making more notes for The Sun Always Shines on TV. It has a skeletal sort of a plot now, and ( Read more... )

Much better day, though I did not get better sleep, maybe four decent hours. But after a cloudy morning, the day turned sunny - if windy and not truly warm. Our high was 66F.

I spent the day putting together Sirenia Digest 215 (Decemeber 2023), which will go out to subscribers as soon as Gordon Duke gets it back to me (he makes my MS Word files, ( Read more... )

Bitter cold here. Our low last night was 21F, and our high today was an overcast 48F. Alabama is not suited to this sort of weather.

Sirenia Digest 213 has gone out to subscribers. Thank you, Gordon.

It was a profoundly unremarkable day.

Profoundly. Even the misery was unremarkable.

This afternoon, I watched del Toro's Pacific Rim, which is ( Read more... )

Another coolish, sunny day. We only made it to 71˚F, but the windchill made it feel more like 51˚F ( Read more... )

At least it didn't rain today. It was supposed to, but it didn't. So, there's that. Our high with heat index was 89˚F. Currently, it's 78˚F. Kathryn said she heard a couple of cicadas today, but I didn't.

I spent half the day proofreading "Untitled Psychiatrist #4" and putting together Sirenia Digest 171, which I then sent to Gordon, who made PDFs ( Read more... )

Blah, blah, blah. Weather blah, blah, blah. The high was 93˚F, with the heat index at 99. And overcast all day.

I wasn't going to make this entry, because I'm in a foul mood, but...

Sirenia Digest #162 went out late today. It would have gone out yesterday, but I screwed up the cover somehow, and Gordon and I had to figure it out ( Read more... )

Sunny today and a little warmer. We'll be back in the eighties by Wednesday.

I spent the morning getting the digest together, and then I emailed all the files to thingunderthest, and he made a PDF, which Spooky will send out to subscribers this very night. That's two issues in about two weeks. Go me. I hope that you will enjoy "The Last Thing You Should Do ( Read more... )
