Well, got back the results of my annual physical today. Everything looks good (Even, surprisingly, my blood sugar!), but my cholesterol is little high. Comparing my ratio of Total Cholesterol to HDL over the past three years... Clearly, I was doing something right last year. But what was it? I mean, I'm actually working out…

November 17, 2020: Hopefully, a full blog entry this time!
For some reason, this blog has taken to auto-deleting portions of my entries so that I end up posting only a portion of what I actually write. It happened yesterday and I ended up having to go back to my early drafts to retrieve and rectify. Hopefully, I won't have to do that again today.…
November 16, 2020: Dark Matter fans, assemble!
A reminder that I'll be joining the gang at Orville Nation to talk about Dark Matter Episode 7 (the one with Wendy the robot!) tonight! Come join us! https://twitter.com/nation_orville/status/1328117281814097921 Came across this article yesterday....

November 15, 2020: Suji Sunday!
Well thanks for all the well-wishes. Suji slept through the night, ate breakfast, and seems otherwise unaffected by whatever ailed her yesterday. Of course, I won't commence official celebrations until later tonight once it's obvious she is on the mend. Until then - fingers crossed! Yo, Stitch! Contemplating life. Displaying remarkable tonguemanship. With her unsettled…
November 14, 2020: This might be a long night!
Someone is NOT feeling well today. Suji slept through the night and displayed her usual voracious breakfast appetite, so we assumed she was back to her old self. After her morning walk, she settled down for her customary nap. I was working on my outline when she suddenly sat up on her dog bed and…
November 13, 2020: Suji feeling under the weather!
Someone was NOT feeling well last night and got up to go to the bathroom and 11:30 p.m., 2:20 a.m., and again and 4:30 a.m. And because she can't get off the bed and magically suspend herself over the toilet, I ended up getting up to assist...while Akemi slept through the night, oblivious. Despite the…
November 12, 2020: Things rolling!
Alright. Making some steady progress on the pilot outline for Project F. Slow. But steady! Also making progress on that TimEscape zoom conference. Slow. But steady. Originally scheduled for this past Tuesday, it has been rescheduled to next Tuesday. It's been tricky nailing down a day and time because everyone is super busy, I can…

November 10, 2020: Feel free to title this blog entry!
In case you missed it - I discuss Dark Matter Episode 6 with the gang at Orville Nation... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6l4VYaG7xEw Guys, this is important! https://twitter.com/BaronDestructo/status/1326138882770038786 And...I may have overdone it at lunch. And now I have to do an interview. Hmmmm. It would seem this outline is NOT writing itself. I may have to turn to…
November 9, 2020: How are your holiday plans looking?
Hey, Dark Matter fans, join us in a little over an hour for a discussion of Dark Matter season 1, episode 6! https://twitter.com/TeamRazaEurope/status/1325754330067165185 So, what do you think? https://twitter.com/BaronDestructo/status/1325814612277796867 Not a fan of burritos, but I'd definitely try this one. So how are your holiday plans looking? Mine are still up in the air.…
November 8, 2020: Suji Sunday!
Couch party! Sun hog. Check out the attitude on this one. When she gets out into the carpeted hallway, she just motors... When she gets outside, however, she likes to take her time and sniff things out. Lots of meandering with the occasional "bursts" of progress. A reminder to join us tomorrow for our weekly…
November 7, 2020: Anime Recommendations!
Let's hear 'em! The epic Vinland Saga was our favorite anime of 2019 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRubJuMCUkI This year, our favorite by far was the truly bonkers Dorohedoro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ry-jzv18fOY&t=9s An older anime we just discovered this year that we absolutely loved was the surprisingly great Akame ga Kill! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-zD-llFXvQ Right now, I'm presently making my way through…
November 6, 2020: Let’s hit the mailbag!
What do you say? https://soranews24.com/2020/11/07/chocolate-covered-shrimp-snacks-make-a-comeback-in-japan-this-winter/ I am...dubious. This is the type of instagram content I enjoy. This account belongs to a senior couple who post photos of them modeling clothes people don't collect from their cry cleaning shop: https://www.instagram.com/wantshowasyoung/ And their story. Choose your dessert! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbu3Uqa9s1A Check out this fantastic article by Brad Wright: https://www.thecompanion.app/2020/11/06/the-rules-of-stargates-superheroes-death-stars-and-parking-zones-brad-wright/…
November 5, 2020: I’m Creative Neutral!
Well, it's been a pretty unproductive week. Spinning my wheels on that YA sci-fi pilot rewrite and making slow progress on the outline for the Project F pilot. I was primed to start pitching not one but TWO sci-fi projects, but word is a lot of the major buyers are closing up shop until January.…
