I started this one on Monday. <Friday> I have added to it every day this week. Well, maybe not Wednesday. I can’t remember. In any case, I’ve gone back through and sectioned things off by day. <Thursday> Most times, the lists come quick. Other times, shit gets in the way. Like, 400 words of this…

Sitting here listening to Daft Punk’s Tron: Legacy soundtrack. While I write random things for work. And this. Obviously. I can go back and forth. Also, it’s lunch hour. (Was. – Editor) EPIC cyberpunk sounds while writing a Code of Conduct for an internal communications platform I get to launch. … Let’s start that over.…

Sept. 2 Now I’m to that point where I think I have notes that could be part of a list in two or three different places. But I’m in the recliner and I don’t want to get up to find a notebook. Or get my computer glasses. If there’s anything that could put a dent…
