You know, the early 2000s Tremor tv series is not that bad. Currently watching it on Tubi after a long evening of grading.

So it's been a while since my last post 8 months ago and a lot has happened.

1. I did end up finishing the article I was ranting about in my previous post.
2. I became a dad to awesome little boy.
3. And, I'm about to finish the draft of my book manuscript.

It's a lot...

Trying to get myself to write and finish an article that is overdue was a struggle today. But hopefully I can write for a few more hours later this evening after dinner. 🫠

For my first post on here, I'll let you all know that I like watching cheesy sci-fi and horror films while I prepare for the work week 😁
