Sometimes the first morning of a mini-break looks like drinking coffee and randomly watching one of the best episodes of Interview with the Vampire just because happens to be on TV.

I realized while trying to get back to sleep this morning that this current novel project I’m writing doesn’t yet have a playlist. That would actually really help kick things into gear. I’m thinking a new wave/post-punk vibe with “Blue Monday” as the anchor songs. Will take any and all recs!

It’s not often that I think, “Damn, I wish I would have taken the Red Line today,” but thinking I was gonna get a quick express bus ride on a Sunday morning has turned into what will be a 90 minute trip to the South Loop since LSD is closed today.

"Why can't you just appreciate how revolutionary the job-taking, environment-degrading, information-shredding, technology-hoarding, economy-swamping machine is?" My brother in Christ, there may indeed be a revolution in part because of "AI," but it might not be the one you wanted.

I’m having A Week, so I treated myself to soft serve ice cream BEFORE dinner. Because I’m an adult and I do what I want.

I’ve finished 75% of my to-do list and my inbox is under 30. That means I can be done for the week now, right?

Did an extra long session two of the Great Apartment Purge of 2025 since Sarah and I are going to make a donation stop on the way to run some errands tomorrow. In total, I filled three big Ikea bags, two smaller bags, and a space heater that is absolutely usable, but I don't need.

Started reading “The Murderbot Diaries” and despite the fact that the construct is (I think) meant to be agender and knowing A.Skars is in the show, its voice in my head is Charlize Theron.

I did it, so you don’t have to. “I wore Kim Kardashian’s £68 nipple bra for a week – it's inexcusably stupid. It is the single most ridiculous item of clothing I have ever owned, and I lived through shell suits.” inews.co.uk/opinion/kim-...

For me, dry January doesn’t refer to not drinking, but to my skin which sucks up any and all moisture as if it was July in Death Valley. Just call me Lady Cassandra.

I don’t know what ground crew fuckery is happening at O’Hare right now. 1st delay: parked a plane at the gate and had no one to come get it for 45 minutes. We boarded and despite being RIGHT NEXT to where there were filling the de-icing trucks, we were ignored for 2.5 hours. Still at the gate, BTW.

Flying “overnight” back to Chicago from the west coast is so strange because everyone I know is asleep while I’m in the air.

I went to see “Wicked” today and thankfully I had plenty of tissues. It was such a beautiful expansion of the stage show. And shout out to my sister (who had no idea what she was getting into) for letting me clutch her hand for the last 20 minutes while I had feelings. 💚🩷

Leaving a hotel bar in the Meatpacking District, we got in an elevator. It stopped on the next floor down and Mickey Rourke got in. Instead of turning to face the door, he stayed facing me for the whole ride down. When it stopped, he stepped out backward and walked away.

Tomorrow night, I’m putting up a Christmas tree. I know it’s a little early and I’ll be gone for the actual holiday, but I needed some joy and sparkle, especially now. This is the first time I’m going to have a full size tree in 13 years!

Because I know that work is going to be a lot this week, I thought meal prepping would be a good idea so I don’t have to make choices when my brain is tired. But my prepping skills are rusty and turns out cooking for 5 days is tiring.

While I’ve been sick, I started rewatching Elementary from the beginning. I don’t know why I haven’t done this before. This show is so, so good and truly one of the best, if not the best (yes, I am saying it) modern adaptations of Sherlock Holmes.

I really, really, REALLY hate having a cough. I'm one of those people who doesn't just cough quietly once. It's a solid 20 - 60 seconds of ugly, chest rattling, I'm-hacking-up-a-demon coughing. My throat feel like I've swallowed glass and my voice sounds like I've been sucking cigs since I was 10.

I saw The Marvels and it was absolutely great. It was funny and heartbreaking and just so fucking well done. It reminded me of Ragnarok in all the best ways. Higher, further, faster, baby.
