The plague could be worse. If I was smoking I’m sure the cough would be 10x worse. Not that it can’t/won’t get worse. But man. Add to that this feels like (and probably is) the coldest winter in the past 5-6 years. I still got myself out to pay the month-end bills and get cold…

I’m going to say this A LOT in the coming weeks. I really, really fucking hate Pagemaker. It’s an outdated software that should be expunged from computers everywhere. I spent almost 5 hours today working on dummy pages (which in retrospect was a good thing) trying to make my layouts look the same as Walter’s.…

Or How I Spent My First Day at a New Job. Okay, turns out, not a job. A contract. They want me to invoice them every 2 weeks. Hours on the honor system. Not what I was expecting. I kind of wanted the surety of having taxes paid, money dropped in my account. Not waiting…

Today was a good day. I mean, a good day. Despite some gremlin trying to find purchase in my throat, threatening a viral fuck you towards my first day at a new part-time job, things were good. I may have hit the wrong button when my alarm went off and slept an extra 90 minutes,…

Did you watch the closing ceremonies of the Olympics? Neither did I. If I’d stayed up for the full hockey game (ended up going back to bed and taping it) I could’ve watched it live in the morning. But I just couldn’t care tonight. I tried to write. Maybe got two pages down. The idea…

I’m stuck. I’ve got ideas for the play, but am having trouble getting it started properly. The first scene has been revised. But there’s new stuff I want to write for it and that will inform other scenes in the play, and so I don’t want to get too heavy into rewrites until the new…

I would like to bottle today in a bottle, to spritz in increments when I’m having shitty days. First, Canadian Men’s hockey are in the finals. And yeah, for a guy who’s not much into sports, I’m pretty damned happy about it. It’s the Olympics; hard not to get swept up. But man, as a…

I got the job. Ego boost, a side of nerves. I proposed a pay scale; they offered the low end, but it was within the range I’d put forward. Will not complain about that. I start Tuesday. And, I don’t have to be in the office until mid-afternoon. Lovely. It won’t pay all the bills.…

No word from the job yesterday. You want frustrating? This. Is frustrating.

“And other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you enjoy the play?” I dunno how to describe today, other than that. So. I went in today for a second interview with that part-time job. At least, I thought it was an interview. I can’t be sure. It might’ve been offered to me. They definitely got…
