My creativity and inspiration waxes and wanes more frequently than the moon does. Annoying.

There is too much logic in my head right now and not enough emotion. This is affecting me in unexpected ways that need to be…researched. Analyzed. Damn it. Too clinical. Felt? Felt.

I have rearranged my home study into something…functional, but lack the energy to take advantage of that right now. The guest bed has been removed and in its place, a desk for analog work such as collage and correspondence.


I hit the gym for the first time in two weeks and I am feeling it. I even took a nap due to lack of good sleep while attempting to capture the Orionids meteor shower early this morning. Now, all I want to do is sleep and watch something mind-numbing.

Don’t forget the tripod next time, Sleepyhead.

My heart and mind just aren’t into doing any book writing today. Or sort, edit, organize book notes. It seems my brain cranks out two days worth of good stuff and needs up to two weeks to recover and do it again. Vicious cycle indeed.

Nebulae

Upon further inspection of the Orion constellation image I took the other morning1 I noticed multiple nebulae. Had I remembered or even noticed, I would have broken out the tripod and opened up the shutter longer for a better shot. Here, the Horsehead and Flame nebulas are quite visible, as is the Orion Nebula to the lower right. I’ll try again on the return trip home.

I was attempting to bulk send the novel draft to my Kindle for a read-through and somehow/someway I am missing four chapters. Gone. Attempting to recover if possible.

**Update** Crisis averted after relocating buried chapters.

On This Day

I just wrote and deployed a script to display “On This Day” for any/all of my previous articles on that given day. It can be found in the Archives section. When there is a day in the previous years I did not post, the script will read: “Nothing has ever happened on this day. Ever.

However, I was fairly busy on October 1st in the past according to this screenshot.
