A sunny, chilly autumn day. Black Friday, and I spent not one red cent. Our high was 63F.

It's not that The Night Watchers has stalled or anything. It grows ever weirder. I just haven't felt like talking about it. Maybe tomorrow.

This afternoon's film was Ridley Scott's Blade Runner (1982), the "Final Cut" (2007). When I first saw this film, on ( Read more... )

We had sun for some of the day. And it's warmer. But I am sick of this weather. Our high today was 41˚F.

No work was done.

Last night, our annual Christmas viewing of A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965) and Wes Anderson's The Royal Tenenbaums (2001 ( Read more... )

Another sunny, warm November day. Our high was 78˚F.

This morning, no writing, but I colored monster doodles and sent the final version of Living a Boy's Adventure Tale to Subterranean Press. It will appear as a hardback novella, illustrated by paleoillustrator Steve White and free with the special edition of Bradbury Weather. I also signed a ( Read more... )

I actually had a good day today. That doesn't happen very often, genuinely good days.

It started with me somehow sleeping until almost 9 a.m., when I should have been up at 7, and that threw everything off, and I got virtually no work done, and yet...it was still a good day ( Read more... )

If I owe you an email, apologies. Yesterday was a motherfucking train wreck inside my head (but not a literal train wreck, because my head's not that big), and then I slept less than four hours last night was was sick with sleep deprivation all today. God, I miss the days when I could stay out all night, come home at dawn, sleep three hours, wash, ( Read more... )

The rain from Christobal hit us in earnest about 5 p.m., but I think it's quiet now. I went out for a few minutes midday, had a cigarette, and the sun came out for a few minutes. That was the best part of the day, the sun through the clouds. Our high today was 93˚F with heat index. It's now 77˚F.

I tried to start a new piece today, for Sirenia ( Read more... )

Sunny and warm today. The last day of May. We made it to 85˚F. It's now 72˚F.

And I wrote again, another 1,159 words on what I'm calling "Untitled Psychiatrist #4." By the way, yesterday was the day I had a had an actual word tally for fiction since April 23.

It could have been a better day, but it could have been a much wore day. I posted Lord ( Read more... )

It marvelously warm this morning. Currently, it's 81˚F and mostly sunny.

Despite the double dose of gabapentin, I somehow managed only to sleep about four hours last night.

The reading at the Savoy went well last night. We had a good crowd, and I was able to get my cough under control (tons-o'meds) enough to read chapters 12 and 14 from Black ( Read more... )

Cloudy, mostly, and 63˚F. We're supposed to reach 68˚F today.

Yesterday, groggy from the gabapentin, about all I managed was proofreading "Day After Tomorrow, the Flood." I do think it's finished. Tomorrow, I'll make the line edits and pull together Sirenia Digest 147. Today I have a doctor's appointment that will eat up the entire afternoon. No ( Read more... )

The clouds are back today, with rain, and the day will be cooler. Currently, it's 54˚F, with the windchill at 51˚F. But the relative warmth and the sun will be back tomorrow. And the trees are waking up ( Read more... )
