Easing back in...

Been absent a while. No reason other than out-and-out laziness.

Working hard on a number of stories. Put together a reader’s draft of the newest today. I’m calling it “Third Blood.” A story about identity.

Still haven’t caught up on the other chores I’ve laid out for myself, but in this instance, not for lack of trying. Have had lots of interruptions these past two months—medical, in particular—and with the trip to Silver Spring ahead, things don’t look to change soon.

Beautiful fall day today. One of many in a row. Been running the stairs down in the park almost every morning, and have now reached a point where I’m going to miss them when the snowy weather moves in. But like the man said, Nothing Gold Can Stay.

Took a walk downtown today and had a latte at Stir. A nice easy afternoon. Got flu shots this morning, but haven’t felt any side effects. Happy about that, too.
