Drinking (Yes/No) Yes (138/90)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - working on the console.  Lots of preliminary stuff to be integrated.

In the interim - not as ill today, but still very tired.  Went out but too hot, made me a bit sick.  Great phone call as always.  Sober through it, too.

Overall - had worse days, I guess.  Got the Sunday stuff done at least.

See you tomorrow.

Drinking (Yes/No) Yes (137/90)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - working on Part 3.

In the interim - went for a short walk, but too hot to go far.  Otherwise on the couch all day.

Overall - another Saturday.

See you tomorrow.

August 14, 2026 (Friday)

Drinking (Yes/No) Yes (136/90)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - finished part 2, and uploaded to YouTube.  And then started working on part 3.  No rest for the wicked I guess.

In the interim - on the couch most of the day.  Really need to get more Nos.

Overall - well, that was a Friday that could have been but wasn't.

See you tomorrow.

August 13, 2026 (Thursday)

Drinking (Yes/No) Yes (135/90)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - I think I've finished the thing.  A couple of viewings to be certain.  

In the interim - spent most of the day on the couch.  Longish walk.  No nymph.  Maybe that was an hallucination.  

Overall - sometimes the 13th falls on a Thursday.

See you tomorrow.

August 12, 2026 (Wednesday)

Drinking (Yes/No) Yes (134/90)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - Argh, discovered that a shot of the cambug shows him with no arms and no shield, right when he's supposed to have both.  Trying to fix and upload.  UPDATE: managed to fix that.  Need better quality control.  Later: cambug audio is finished, only the trucks are left.  Got some good truck sounds in there, but needs more coordination.  And a No.

In the interim - mostly rested today, aside from the sound work.  Lots of anxiety about the trucks, which led to the Yes...though I suspect the Yes was waiting for an opportunity.

Overall - half good, half bad.  Don't expect much from tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

August 11, 2026 (Tuesday)

Drinking (Yes/No) No (133/90)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - more sound work.   Hoping to finish the camera bug tonight.

In the interim - nice long walk, met some nice folks including a pretty young lady who introduced herself.  Nice brief chat.  Otherwise, lots of sleeping.

Overall - three Nos in a row.  Don't remember when that happened last.

See you tomorrow.

August 10, 2026 (Monday)

Drinking (Yes/No) No (133/89)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - more audio work.  Some good progress, with some bits complete and some bits still to be worked on.  Overall I'm pleased so far.  Got more done, just the camera, the trucks and the prop to detail.  Had an idea to change a scene (already shot and imported) so I did that and will probably swap it in.

In the interim - rested a lot today.  Spent a frustrating amount of time trying to transfer audio from my phone, only to find that a lot of recordings have a loud click throughout.  Bought one of the big cat litter buckets.

Overall - medium walk today.  Overall an OK day.  

See you tomorrow.
