Today was so much like yesterday, though I did at least read back over all that there is of The Sun Always Shines On TV, as well as a portion of Living a Boy's Asventure Tale. I did get that done ( Read more... )

Overcast most of the day. Our high was 80F.

Not much sleep, but still another fairly productive day. But also a day that was irritating as hell. Some fuckery - entirely my fault - led to my having to choose a different obscure tale for Sirenia Digest 216 (a more obscure one, as it turns out), to take the place of the unfinished "An Unknown Person ( Read more... )

Cloudy much of the day. Our high was only 87F.

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... )

A wet, dismal day. The sort of endlessly grey day that imbues this apartment's hideous grey walls with the power to devour light and makes me wish doom upon whatever asshole painted them such a color. Our high was 77˚F, with a heat index of 78˚F ( Read more... )

Some sun, some clouds, some rain today. Sunny for the moment. Our high was 85˚F, with a heat index of 90˚F.

I didn't sleep much, but was awake at 6:30 a.m., up at 7:00, and I started proofreading "Onion" (for Bradbury Weather) at 7:30 a.m. That took almost three hours ( Read more... )
