Far from over

-


Sadly, there are people who think this whole thing is over. There are even some who never believe it was that bad to begin with. Those are mostly the idiots who follow the KKK leader tRump.

But this horrible pandemic is far from over. And it is only going to get worse because of those ignorant people. I keep seeing videos about people making scenes in stores because they refuse to wear a mask when required. These morons don't have the common sense to GO SOMEWHERE ELSE IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT!
But no, they feed on the stress and anxiety they put onto others. They feed on it like the parasites they are.

Am I upset? Of course. I'm doing my best to stay safe and stay inside. Steve is forced to work around idiot customers who don't wear masks because they only care about themselves when going out to eat. I'm doing my best not to have a nervous breakdown as I worry about the ONE person in my life staying safe.

Several states are about to hit "apocalyptic" surges, yet so many still "have to get their nails done" "I have to get my hair done." "I have to go to the gym." "I have to go out and eat."

We are only in June, and there isn't supposed to be a vaccine until next year. And that isn't even assured.

Current numbers for the U.S. alone:
Cases: 2,427,448
Deaths: 123,751

Please stay safe. MASK UP. Protect others. 💓😷

    I am so sorry. I am so sad to know there are so many idiots who don't care about other people's lives. I give you a hug. Thank you for being here.💜

Just a quick hello-

-
As I sit here waiting to begin my work day, I wanted to just say a quick hello. As you can tell by the lack of a picture, I'm on my iPad, my new best friend. I never thought I would love the iPad as much as I do, but I do. I'm sill learning all the ins and outs, but I'm getting there. Things have been pretty much going in a steady forward motion for me. Steve is finally felling better, which always eases my mind tremendously. Book sales have been great. Work has been not as horrible as it usually is, so that's a nice change. And Buster, well, he's still his cute adorable self. The weather here in Austin has begun to slowly feel more like Texas weather; that is to say, it's getting hot as shit. I told myself, this year I would try and not get as stressed about the weather as I did last summer. I just have to keep it in my head that there is nothing I can do about it, and my time here gets shorter and shorter with each day that passes. Oh how I can't w...

Just full of giddiness!

Not sure if it's really all that manly to be full of giddiness, but I don't know of any other way to describe it.  One of the rules of blogging, especially for a writer, is not to bore your readers with the same old subject over and over.  But Luthor is a major part of my life right now, and things are beginning to change because of it. And the title of this blog is the daily ups and downs of  an up and coming writer, and over the past few years there have too many downs.  I am on the way up, and I'm gonna shout it from the top of a mountain (from the top of Pike's Peak, eventually). I just got done preparing a couple of packages for some people who have purchased signed copies of Luthor .  And as I was doing it, I was so happy. Actually over the past few weeks I have been so happy.  Sales have been great.  People have been talking to me about the book and telling me about the emotions it took them through and how if effected them.  Ea...

The light at the end of the tunnel-

(I'm doing this entry on my iPad, so I'm not able to add a picture.  Just imagine a cool shot of Colorado, please. ) As most of you know, our big goal is to get the hell out of Austin and up to the mountains of Colorado. Obviously we have to wait a couple of years until I retire with the City of Austin, The other day I got some good news: That goal got 6/7 months closer. I will be able to buy my sick time and move my date up! Nice! So by roughly September of 2014 I will be retiring! It seems weird to say those words. People tell me, "You can't retire, you're too young." The hell, I can't! You're never too young to retire, if you're able.  It's my reward for sticking with a job I didn't like most of the time for 23 years! Some also ask, "What are you going to do? You'll get bored." The hell I will! They forget: I'm a writer. I actually never thought I would retire with the City, because I always thought my caree...
