Another balmy day here in southeast Texas. If Santa were on Galveston Island at the moment, he’d probably be decked out as in the accompanying picture. The temperature is supposed to drop 20° on us between today and tomorrow so it will be more seasonal for the holidays. This is my last day at work for 2009 — I won’t be back until 20010. That doesn’t look quite right…
Watched the third episode of Men of a Certain Age last night after catching my wife up with the first two. We both tend to agree that Ray Romano is the show’s weak link, although the subplot with Joe and his son was probably the least awkward and uncomfortable of all of Romano’s storylines so far. However, I really liked Owen and Terry’s respective stories this week. Best line to date: Monday I go back to making little girls cry.
Still working on short story revisions. Not sure if I’ll get back to them this year, but I hope to. I have about 9000 words of fiction to whip into shape for this project, with the possibility of revisiting a reprint, too.
Can’t wait for Doctor Who, part 1 of which will air on BBC America on Saturday evening (it airs in the UK on Christmas Day). Part 2 a week later and that’s that for the current doc.
