Sunday is fun day
Jun. 4th, 2017 10:06 amIt's Sunday and for me, that's my do all the non-work thinking day. My general routine for Sundays is to make some coffee and grab something to keep my blood sugar up, then go to my office and put on some good music. I generally start with Facebook and Titter while I wake my brain up.
Next, I check out my Patreon feed. I have four people I give $1 to every month, but they make posts faster than I can keep up during the week, so I read them all on Sunday. I used to make my own Patreon posts every Sunday, but I've more or less let mine die since finishing my book. Instead, I was making livejournal posts, but then livejournal went and got really sketchy. I didn't want to accept their new terms, so I never logged in again. Which brings me to Dreamwidth. I guess I'll be posting here instead even though I don't know many people on this platform. I was on livejournal for over 15 years, so it's weird going somewhere else, but also nice to have a fresh start.
Once my update is done, I'll actually work on my book. Right now, that's mostly sending out query letters to literary agents. So far I have about four rejections, which I think is a good start.
As for my actual update, things have been busy but quiet. We went to Jasper, AB for a vacation. I'd never been to Alberta and Sunny hadn't been there since she was like four. We flew into Calgary and had dinner with my manager and a few of my team members, which was nice. We also hung out with one of my amazing friends who I met though work, although we don't work together anymore. We'd never met in person, so it was really surreal to hear her voice coming out of her face. She and her boyfriend joined Sunny and me and we all drove to Jasper. It was beautiful out there. I really had a wonderful time. I also drank quite a lot, which i have to admit, I enjoyed.
Oddly, the night before last, I had a dream about her. She had gotten a house on the beach and I would often go over and visit. She put up a hook by the door and hung a bathrobe on it, so when I came over, I could put on the bathrobe and then go drink coffee on the porch overlooking the water. I love water.
Sunny and I also went to a bbq with some of my old work friends and then this past Friday went to karaoke with the same group of people. It was not Sunny's thing. It was really cool that she came though. I worked with those people for 6 years and this is the first time she's come out to karaoke.
Last night, while Sunny was working, Wes and I went across the street to the park and spent a little time spinning some fire staff. He's still pretty intimidated by the fire, so thought it would make sense for us to just get comfortable with it alone before spinning fire in public again. He definitely became more comfortable over time, so I was glad to see that.
Okay, time to get to writing.
