Being back in the desert has gone about as well as can be expected, by which I mean not very well thus far. I shifted from an outdoor culture to a largely indoor one and did not compensate with gym time. I can tell myself I needed the time off but the reality is that I am lazier here and quicker to reach for games to fill the void. Knowing this is extremely helpful. It starts me on a path to find other things and other ways to be.
some Thoughts:
- Started season 2 of jujitsu kaisen. I may be fading on anime overall, the way I faded on comic books as a kid. What I am looking for I’m not quite getting out of the medium right now.
- people who do not exercise their passion—be it through a job or observation or action—will ultimately feel unfulfilled. I watch that go on a lot.
- as much as I want to enjoy collaboration it requires the right partners. Sometimes I miss my old writing team.
- I’m working on one project right now where I just met two new people with input and wow, they added a lot in one day. I’m a fan of people who bring ideas and intellect to the table.
- don’t have a ton to say tonight. I need to get back to writing without thinking. I suspect that what comes out will be considerably more interesting than trying to think of the next thing to say.
