Out to the cottage early, early to the keyboard. Wrote a script, messed with some files, and enjoyed a couple of cups of coffee on the back patio before the little guy arrived.
Nice day. Weather’s still unbelievably hot, but other than that not much to complain about. Goofed around the house for a while, then drove out to Sportsman’s Warehouse to pick up an extra life vest and kill a little time.
Got in a nice workout at the gym while M napped. Filled the pool and let it warm, and sat around the last part of the afternoon while he and J played.
Been working out this “news” gag with the boys. They get a charge out of it. I pretend to pick up the evening paper and find myself in shock after reading the headlines. Been working it for two weeks now, and it’s still drawing laughs.
Skirting the headlines, and not sad for it. With everything else going on, I couldn’t give a good goddamn about politics or much of anything else. Kind of liberating. I’m sad about the sorry state of the movies at the moment, but hey, maybe that’ll improve soon, too.
Need to get my last review off to N tomorrow.
Hit the sack early again. Keep taking small victories where I can.
