So while I’ve been wearing flip-flops, staying in lonely and expensive hotels, and sitting in rooms all day looking at the same videos over and over, I have had some fun in between.

Highlights:

• Singing along to The Little Mermaid with a theater full of adults, hipsters, and children at the Castro Theater.
• Getting to visit with friends and my sister in LA. And in the same weekend having J come down for fun meals, ultimate frisbee, and a trip down college memory lane.
• Getting a punctured scooter tire.
• Test riding what will hopefully be my new bike.

I’ve also been putting a lot of energy into what I hope will be an exciting and fruitful Dordles project on Kickstarter. Full details are coming soon, but until then here’s a tease:

A sample of exciting Dordle things to come.

I have a plan. I have the video shot. Now I just need to finish the video and get everything online. Fingers crossed.
