Here’s a bit about today

When I woke up this morning, I thought I was going to write a bit today on the Chelsea Handler documentary that I mentioned in yesterday’s post. That didn’t happen1. Today proved to be much fuller2 than I anticipated. My partner and I are scrambling to finish a proposal that’s due at the end of the week. It’s feeling a bit more than either of us realized. It’s good, but it’s a lot.

What’s the point? I’m not too sure there is one other than a status update. After all, in when one is aiming to publish on most days (well, shooting for Sunday - Friday), one sometimes simply has to publish a status update.

This morning I thought today would look like this (imagine I’m holding out my right hand). Instead, it looked like this (that’s the left hand). Goodness, if I had a nickel for every day that did that to me, I’d have enough to buy a book on how to accept that life unfolds as it will.


  1. Sure, we could make an argument that I literally just did that. But that’s not at all what I’ve got in mind. We all know that. Right?

  2. More full?
