In case anyone was wondering, the office was closed on Saturday (April 27th, 2024 AD/CE), so I did not work and I did not do any writing this weekend, neither fiction nor nonfiction.  In fact, I did almost nothing productive at all this weekend, apart from a few moderate walks.  I also didn’t really do anything fun this weekend, honestly.  The closest I came to that was watching some YouTube videos of people reacting to movies that I’ve seen before.  It’s almost like watching a movie with a friend.  Not really, though.

Anyway, this morning I did some writing, and I guess I was making up for lost time, because I wrote 2,626 words on Extra Body.  Obviously, it’s coming along, and I hope to be done with it before too long.  At least, I’ll be done with the first draft.  It will need a lot of pruning, of course, because I do tend to get carried away when I’m writing fiction, especially when I’m using my laptop computer, which I did today.

Other than that, there’s not much to add.  I’m starting a new work week today, as are most people, and <sarcasm> that should be wonderful fun </sarcasm>.  It actually wouldn’t be all that bad if there was not so much noise and if people came and went on time and followed the rules and/or the rules were enforced.  Oh, well.  The world is unsatisfactory, and it always has been.  It probably always will be.  I don’t know why I bother with it.  I’m way past finding any significant value in existence.

I hope at least some of you are more enthusiastic about starting your work week than I am.  I don’t know whether to tell you to look forward to my story; it’ll be a while before it’s done, and of course, I don’t know whether it will be something anyone will like.  I guess there’s only one way we can discover that fact.

Have a good day, please.
