MONDAY—

More opps, that’s the aim.

1-14-25

Already mid-Jan.  Again time reminding me that I need to move quicker.  And be stronger.  More of that warrior writer.  Compromise less… actually make whatever you want to happen, happen.

09:25, Nurse here with me telling me about a car accident in Fairfield.  Like Didion said in Magical Thinking, it can all change in an instant.

Aim for today is write business owners.  Any and all of them.  Have a template then adjust where needed.

Done.  One email sent.  Voicemail left for client that has some porting issue, but I’m not into it.  Barely connected.  Writing even when I have nothing.  Hear the garbage truck, pulling up old or not so old doc.  Making something happen today.

One quote out, then another.  A new conversation, another then another.  Found something, will send materials and quote, general statement toward EOD, when I get to Vacaville.  An all or nothing frame, this part of my movie.  That’s what I’m imagining, that someone, anyone, is watching every move, knows every thought in my head…. Bought a ticket, expects it to be good.

09:50…. 10:20.

Need a shot or double of espresso, and some water.  Day not giving me much, so I’m in a mode of TAKE.  Interesting marketing firm I stumbled upon in Marin County.  How do I approach them, what do I want, what am I hoping for?  Espresso first…

Nurse leaves, and I’m into the day.  What the next move is, the next decision… and all surround work and what I do for work.  No more riding anything out. Not that I’m doing such, but you know…. At this point in the Story, each decision has more of a print, more of an embossment on what life is, means, could turn into.

Not as much writing done yesterday as I wanted, but… holding off on some decisions concerning this agency brainstorming.  Happier and HAPPIEST Communications.  Still have website saved but no purchase yet.  And if someone snags the domain, oh well.  It’s the idea and embodiment that I represent that CANNOT be plagiarized, no matter how hard some ugly ear-wax boil tries.

Fiend of mine, a winemaker in Sonoma County, near Healdsburg, posting an interview he did with some blogger, or “influencer” person.  He’s smiling, laughing, happy, content.  From his work, what he does day to day.  Truly, that is the only thing I’m after.  No one field or vertical, just that feeling.  And having it EVERY.DAY.

Quiet, and taking a second to ME.  Writing yes, but more so seeing wha tI want, feeling the way I describe above.
