I’ve decided to take next week off for a few reasons: One, it’s my birthday on the 22nd. Two, we’ll be installing the new President (Version 46, now available with Vastly Improved Intelligence Capability) and I feel like celebrating that. And Three, I just want to get some offline creative work done and get myself caught up.
A is currently on vacation and today we decided to get outside and get some fresh air and sunshine by heading over to the Botanical Garden in Golden Gate Park, and then driving down to Ocean Beach, where the waves were high and spectacular.
I’m pretty sure you can understand, considering how this week has been playing out. We’ve been avoiding any additional stress by rewatching She-Ra and it’s doing a surprisingly good job of lightening the mood.
ANYWAY! Hopefully I’ll be a little more on the ball next week.
Going to take a few weeks off from blogging as I’ll be busy doing IRL stuff, recharging my brain cells a bit and spending a few days in New England to see friends and family! [Yes, I know we’re heading there at the back end of winter, when it’s still freakin’ cold with the possibility of wonky weather, but that’s the way it goes. Oh well!]
We should hopefully be back to our normal schedule come March. See you then!
Sorry for the lack of posts on the back half of this week…it’s been pretty crazy at work as I’ve been busy training a coworker on the black arts of check processing. Heh. A and I are going on a well-deserved long weekend vacation down to Disneyland!

OH HAI THERE. I’ve been busy most of November, getting used to the new schedule and Day Job situation. I mean, I’d rather not get used to it, if you know what I mean, but I’ve managed to find workarounds for various things I need and want to do. I chose to take most of November off to recalibrate myself and my situation, see what I can work with, and make it happen.
And make it happen I did! I have managed to set aside time to work on Daily Words! This is going to be pretty much the same as when I was writing In My Blue World and Diwa & Kaffi in tandem — whenever there’s a slow moment during the day, or when I’m on my breaks, I’ll do a lightning round of a few hundred words. As long as I’m working on something, that’s all that matters.
And I’m glad to say that I’ve made some real progress this past week, much to my complete surprise! Right now I’m working on a few Mendaihu Universe ideas — one that’s sort of a fun diversion of a short story, and the other is a Possible Book Four thing. It’s still all in the planning stages, but I’m willing to see where it takes me.
As for the blogs, they’ll probably be a bit erratic over the next few weeks until the end of the year, but I’m hoping I might be able to post at least one entry for each blog a week, time permitting. Like I said, I’m still recalibrating, so it may take a while for me to get back on track.
Thanks for waiting, hope to see you here soon again!
I hate that it’s gotten to this level, but I’m putting both Walk in Silence and Welcome to Bridgetown on temporary hiatus until further notice. There are just too many frustrating IRL things going on right now and I have no idea when I’ll be able to return to them.
(All is well mentally and healthwise, if you’re concerned…the issue here is wholly related to Day Job Things that I’m not going to go into right now.)
I may pop in and post something now and again, but don’t expect it to be on any schedule. Sorry about that.
Hopefully things will be a bit more…sane, in the near future.
Hi Gang! Sorry about the lack of entries lately. Real World stuff has been taking front stage the last few weeks and I’ve needed to focus on that as much as I can.
Hopefully within the next few weeks or so thinks will quiet down and it’ll all be back to normal. Thanks for waiting!
Hey all! No major post today, as I’ll be heading over to Golden Gate Park this afternoon to enjoy the three-day Outside Lands music festival! I should have something fresh for you come Monday!
