Adventures du jour! Last night was the beginning of NaNoWriMo. It went pretty smoothly on my end, if somewhat sadly; I finally hit the point where I needed to write out a past scene that the characters had been mentioning throughout the book and it was a wallop. Mr. Assassin had been completely convinced that […]

Adventures du Jour: I was hoping for restful sleep but instead woke up early and miserable. In retrospect it makes sense; I wrote down some taboo things yesterday about religion and being controlled. So I was feeling down and my right hip was in a state of OWFUCK this morning. Yoga: working on reading Yoga

Adventures du jour! As per usual after a big trauma barf, stuff shook out. This was a very thinky day. Yesterday: Talked to a friend with a black sense of humor. I think she was worried about unleashing it on me; it’s been a while since we talked. By the time we were done talking

Adventures du jour! To sum up: rough patch but it got better. Yesterday I got what felt like inextricably stuck on the book and decided to write a letter to a friend instead, about Bad Ex Stuff to someone it felt okay to tell it to and who’d said okay. (Thank you!) It took a

Adventures du jour! Ugh, last night was the kind of restless night that used to drive me outside for long walks that went on for miles.–In Vemillion (South Dakota) I used to walk out to the river in all weather, or rollerblade; in Iowa I used to take this defunct set of train tracks out

Adventures du jour! It feels like my brain’s gonna melt early today, so I’m gonna jot some things down before they’re gone, then call a friend and go read books. If the hormones give me a break I’ll write; otherwise I’ll just weather it. Last night I tried to listen to a friend’s video and

Adventures du jour! I’m in a mood. The bright lime flavor of my soul has slid over to red wine vinegar. Acerbic. It’s probably hormonal, although I’m at the stage of life where my period is so chaotic that who knows. I always go into a minor panic mode when I catch on that my

I’m not getting Lizzo underwear ads anymore, just boring clickbait ads. I feel like this could make a good extension of the Midjourney AI experiment. What prompts should I use in Google to get some interesting ad results?

Adventures du jour! After running across such upsetting thoughts about creativity and success yesterday, I shouldn’t have been surprised that more trauma and other junk shook out last night and this morning. Writing went okay, but I hit mental capacity again. I wrote a couple of hundred words on stuff I knew wouldn’t work (so

Adventures du jour! French onion ramen accomplished, and it was magnificent. MWAH. I typed up notes for my fellow food nerds, which are posted on my FB timeline and on the blog (in comments). I got tickets to Hadestown! There’s a theater in Tampa that gets a ton of shows, and they’re starting up again
