The Journal, Saturday, 7/8

Hey Folks,

Basically just a placeholder post today.

The Hovel’s back in shape. I’ll be moving out there to write pretty soon, though probably not today. It’s Saturday, so….

Maybe I’ll do some cleaning out there, get it ready.

Be glad when this dam breaks.

In the meantime, I have a couple other personal adjustments to make too. I won’t bore you with details on those. Just habits to break and habits to assume.

Oh, about yesterday’s topic. Hey, if you prefer reading books in the paper edition, good. Enjoy. I was only trying to dispel some longstanding misconceptions.

Today, and Writing

Nada today beyond this little bit of stuff. I’m gonna go ahead and file this.

See you tomorrow.

Of Interest

Nada.
