Observed: In the US, restaurant servers always wish you a “Good night” as you leave. I guess it comes from working weird hours without pay.

Are you one who includes the British ‘u’ in words, or not? I waver and occasionally duo.

I’ve only gotten one response. Do you mark up your books? Highlight them? Write and/or doodle in them? Why? #books

I’m sitting. I’m watching. I’m listening. I’m free-writing. It’s lunch time.

Ack! It’s almost noon. Time for the shootout—or lunch.

“A wave of angst rode over him, drowning him in panic.” #writing #throwawayline

Time for a break. I need to do several more editing passes through “The Hit”, and then I can push it out to the anthology. #writing #editing

I’m struggling to get productive. I feel like the coffee didn’t do its job today. That and it’s dark out, due to the clods—err no, autocorrect, not clods—clouds. But I’m sure there are a few clods out there too.

Terminal is where old code goes to die.

Happy Tell an Old Joke Day Go ahead, tell me one.

Hello. Welcome to a new week, just like the old week. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

Most things that grab your attention are distractions. It’s up to you to sort them out from the important things. Don’t act on the distractions. Act on the important things. #life #success #business

Also, the latest version of Apple Notes allows collaboration at the note and folder level. A feature I’ll never use, but it’s there if you need it. #apple #notes

In case you didn’t know, Apple Notes has lots of features hidden under the context menu, such as adding links to other notes or websites. Apple Notes isn’t quite a wiki, but it’s getting close. #apple #notes #wiki

Plan for tomorrow: — iOS — work on getting “The Hit” edited — eat — drink — sleep

Reorganized my Notes to simplify things. #apple #notes

So. Who here marks us their books with notes? Why? #books #reading

Learn to trust and rely on yourself. #life #business #success

Good morning,all.Be the anchor those around on can depend on. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

Errands complete. Lunch complete. Writing complete. Back home. Now what?
