Adventures du jour! Last night, Midjourney had a meltdown and/or update that made it slow down massively, which was SUPER interesting to watch. At first I thought it was me, that I was doing something wrong. I would type a prompt, and it wouldn’t include all the elements I wanted. (Like, I’d type “unnatural creature” […]

Adventures of the day! This morning: another wallop of a headache, but it went away relatively quickly. Shoulders tense but not terrible; knot in the back of the neck still gone; hips tender but not terrible. Yoga: I determined my hips were the issue this morning and focused on them, including using the foam roller

Adventures du jour… The hurricane has majorly disrupted my sense of what damn day it is. IT’S SUNDAY. This morning, no massive headaches, but some minor ones of the same flavor: sinus aches, pain up the back of the neck and the base of the skull. The muscles feel softer, just as the traps did

This morning, I woke up with a murderous headache and attitude problem, and decided to skip yoga and walking. Just a foul mood, lots of “who do you think you are, you can’t write, you’ll die a failure, alone and afraid” stuff. I went over what I’ve been doing recently, and I think the mood

Post-Hurricane Ian report: meh. It could have gone super-bad but didn’t. I feel like the news tried to drive more panic than necessary, but I also can’t blame anyone, because some people won’t do squat if you don’t turn the panic level up to 11. I like storms, so anything that doesn’t get too violent

1. …and the power is out again. 2. Well, holy shit. I put everything in the freezer in a giant insulated freezer bag. Including two trays of ice cubes on their sides. The ice cubes were mostly unmelted this morning. I’m gonna cook & shred the uncooked meat (chicken thighs, chorizo) and put it in

Power still out! Internet via cell 4G network super slow. Looks like power mostly restored on the Tampa side. May jump over to a Starbucks later; I need to be on a call this afternoon. Going out for a walk.

1. Doing fine so far this morning! The storm turned a bit south last night. Pretty quiet, actually. Power & water still good. 2. Hurricane Ian/Tampa update. We’re finally seeing some wind and heavier rain. I went out walking earlier and the Hillsborough River water level was pretty low. 3. Power out! Going offline to

Checking in. It just started raining. Sounds like tonight’s gonna be noisy but not horrible (40 mph winds, heavy rain, but landfall to the south). Some guy’s outside, bragging it up how bad it is, when the parking lot’s full of cars of people who didn’t evacuate. So tough there, buddy.

Yesterday was a lot of running around, errands, phone calls, and other assorted hugger-mugger, in preparation for the hurricane. Today has been pretty good so far, but who knows how it will go. Ray and I are staying in place; we are out of range/elevation for the storm surge. I anticipate the power and water
