It's A Friday - I'm

It's A Friday - I'm one of those people who should have been born in London or Aberdeen (Scotland, not South Dakota) or Seattle. Rainy days perk me up. Maybe it's because I don't feel so guilty about working indoors all day.

I'm pecking away at a number of projects right now. It's odd; while I've been doing one form or writing or another for some form of living since I was 16, this last month has been strange - the first time I think I've ever written too much. I wouldn't call it "burnout", but the whole process of trying to write...something is mentally fatigueing right now. I wonder how people like Lileks do it, sometimes.

It's felt like a slow news day today, for some reason. But I know it's not. It's just that none of the topics out there really do anything for me today. The lynching of Boykin? Well, the lines are drawn, we're right, they're wrong, next story. Another Lori Sturdevant editorial that begs fisking? Oh, there's a shock. The hubbub at Lucy's, and the confluence of stories about police brutality? Oh, what, again?

Yes. I need the weekend. I'll see you Monday!
