I really should tweet, get an insta, or whatever, but they’re just all so horrible.
Music
I got Conan the Barbarian’s theme on random when I went to the treadmill this morning. Spotify: good
WFH
I’ve been drinking preworkout instead of coffee in the mornings, and yes, it does give me heart palpitations. But I am fired up for that first Zoom call of the day.
Hiking
North Table Mountain left a big, silly smile on my face. There is good in the world.
Musings in Twilight
I gotta rewrite the beginning of TiH. Either Kog goes with the party and returns alone, the story starts much further back, or something happens to change the dynamic. Kog’s violent dismissal from Shang Du is far too quick, and all the threads and angles I built go nowhere.
Likewise, I need to resolve the Osret, Drowning Breath, and Fate agent arcs.
I don’t know what to do.
Conspiracy Theory
Charlie Munger, Henry Kissinger, and Sandra Day O’Connor all went within three days. That’s some serious rule-of-three patterns.
1st World Problems
That was kinda whiny too.
Been a rough few days. Things will get better, and I’ll get through.
Take care, everyone. I’m rooting for you.
Odd preferences
I really like hotel bars.
DDD
That probably wasn’t rated PG.
R&J
I keep reading the opening scene of Romeo and Juliet.
That is the best introduction to a setting, conflict, and plot. It is shockingly good. Every read through, the intro gets better.
Sampson and Gregory are immersed in themselves, their world, and their struggles in a manner that is almost incredible, and yet it’s perfectly obvious.
