A shot of the view from my sunroom. My feet are propped up on a chair in front of me, with a copy of Modern Masters: Bruce Timm on my lap. A Berserk coffee mug is on the table to the right.

I won't have many more opportunities to sit out in the sunroom this year, so I'm taking advantage of the chances that I get.

I took a nap when I got home from work today. It was daylight when I got into bed and dark when I woke up. It had me like:

A frame from Godzilla vs Megalon (1973). Two men stand outside, it looks like day is maybe just about to break. They are looking off to the side with expressions of amazement. The caption reads, "His determination made him grow that big." Not pictured: Godzilla; Megalon; whoever is offscreen cultivating mass

My brother (left) and me (right). We've arrived at a showing of Predator: Badlands fifteen minutes early and just got to our seats. The lights are still on and the pre-trailer ads haven't even started yet.

I saw Predator: Badlands with my brother @gmrez.bsky.social tonight. I really dug it; he was a bit more lukewarm. In any case, it's always nice to spend some time with my baby bro.

I stopped by the comic shop after work today. It had been a while since I last bought a little Trek ship, and when I saw this one, resistance was, well, you know.

I don't smoke, but minus that, from your lips to God's ears.

If that slop has done anything for me, it's made me much more appreciative of actual art and artists than I already was. I go out of my way now to get books collecting the works of my favorite creators. I can lose myself in a Frazetta or a Corben or an old issue of Heavy Metal, just to name a few.

I happen to be a manager at my workplace, and this account has given me some legitimately useful advice.

4-panel-comic by War and Peas Panel 1: A vampire sitting at a desk with an open book and a candle says, "Oh, hello! I'm engrossed in my new hobby: Ancestry!" Panel 2: The vampire, holding a piece of paper, says, "According to my research, I have German blood in me." Panel 3: The vampire laughs and says, "Haha... I quite literally do!" Panel 4: The vampire looks up at a person in lederhosen hanging upside down, saying, "Isn't that right, Wolfgang!" The person figure appears to be dripping blood.

Know your subgenres,

Cracking open a cold one with the fellas: buddy comedy

Cracking open fellas with the Cold One: dark fantasy

Cracking open one fella with a cold: medical drama

A cold open with one cracking fella: sitcom

One cold fella with the open crack: public solo porn in winter

If you see this, post a vampire that isn’t Dracula.

I'm two bourbons in, and I'm still too sober for this bullshit.

Hooray beer!!!

Plumpkins, you might say.

(I've had a couple of drinks as I type this.)

I saw a play tonight put on by the local civic theatre, and I had a great time. It had been forever since I last saw a live performance; I'd forgotten just how much I enjoy them.

My Man! Love you, @realgdt.bsky.social!

Naturally, right after I shared a post about how relaxing my first day of vacation was before I went to sleep, I had a dream about work.

I just can't win! 🤣

I lost track of the time while playing some games, read for a bit in bed before I started nodding off, and now I get to listen to the rain as I fall asleep.

Not a bad way to wind down the first day of my vacation.
