Between now and Dec 11 for the game awards, #HL3 could be real. I’m calling it.

I've had this scene stuck in my head for over a year, and it's finally in the draft. Just have a few thousand words to rewrite, and then this damn chapter is good for redline copy edits. #amwriting #manapoolghostfactor

It's been raining all day today, and what a fine writing day it is.

During recovery, I walked normally in my Mom's neighborhood and on the cruise ship to keep moving. 30 min a day. Sometimes an hour total, depending on my emotions.

Back in the gym.

Back from vacation since yesterday. Today is my (hopefully) last surgeon follow up. Wish me luck.

Loving today's news that the mysterious "fedora man" outside the Louvre heist was actually a 15-year-old museum visitor who dresses like a 1940s French detective all the time, just because. apnews.com/article/louv...

So I gave up and used my free internet day from the cruise. This was my office for the last five days.

Day one of vacation week. In six hours I'll be on a cruise ship, away from the Internet. It ain't worth paying for the internet pass these days.

I've only been able to shave once a week with the work crunch and the surgery wound care. It's like shaving a shag carpet.

Word of advice: wash our mousepads and/or desk pads. It helps.

Screw. Last. Work week. I'm certain I lost a few brain cells from whatever the hell happened.
