Spent most of yesterday afternoon doing some goal setting - I now have an actual notebook starting with plans, goals, strategies, and a KKGI matrix, along with a second hardbound Napalm Journal in which to collect bits about Captain Napalm. Had dinner with my lady and talked out some of my thoughts. I feel better. I had a lengthy and surprisingly enjoyable dream about babies and moviegoing, which we will presume to be a good sign.

I had an hour to kill last night between events and yes, I watched bits of Pirates of the Caribbean and blissed out. Haven't done that in a dang long time. Remember when I fell in love? I'm a lucky feller.

Arrived at work today after a nice morning walk and a coffee, to a yet more vasty avalanche of shit, and am putting into place my overall unstated mantra to not get so sad about it. Things will be as they are; the flux is elsewise.
