Pay off the mortgage and the wife’s car breaks down.

This is the way — fuck.

Not going to catch any major breaks today I think. So no point dwelling on it. Luckily we live very close to our inlaws so we had a vehicle to borrow so I can run the kids to school, and my spouse can do her fundraiser donut pick-up for her high school. No car pooling for her today. It’s been a bit of a production, this whole week has been mental. Glad it’s nearly done. I’ve got roughly ten to fifteen pages left on my report, and all three girls have Girl Guides camp this weekend so the dog & I have the run of the house to ourselves! W00t-w00t!

Movies, movies, movies… Dog walks, wood splitting, pizza and more movies! Yeah baby. It’s going to be awesome for the first four to six hours. Then it’ll be too quiet, and I’ll miss the lot of them. Oh well. I do have a social event tonight that I am driving a few friends to. I’ll be long gone, home, and asleep in bed before they even think about heading home, so I’m not on the hook to return folks to their homes, like I did after game seven of the world series.

Anyway, aside from car trouble, what else is new around here? I’ve had a couple of high view days, numbers that would have really gotten my heart going back before I had that 1,500+ day in July. I had a good many double digit views a few times over the last couple of weeks. Still do not know what they are attracted to though. For the best. I’m a weak man, I know even if I didn’t intend to I would start to pander. This way I’m just free wheeling like myself, numbers be damned! Ha. Authenticity. Yeah – that’s the ticket!

I’m not sure if at the end of this calendar year I should celebrate just how well my numbers are, or mourn the fact that this could very well be the peak, and from here on out it’ll just be an anomaly I cannot for the life of me manage to repeat without manipulation, or bots, or some form of trickery.

I’d be happy if I could get myself to start writing more short fiction once again. I have to remind myself that it was, in all honesty, actually fun to do. Using those brain muscles, and giving my typing thumbs a real work out every single day. I’ve just lost my desire for dialogue is all – no biggie.

Have a grand Ole Friday, and an even better weekend if you can. Ciao Bella!
