Day 27:

"A few children walked among the bodies slowly, rifles bouncing on their hips, occasionally stopping to look closely at one of the machines."

Technically that's page 190 of The Accidental Time Travelers Collective Volume 1, but it's the 11th page of BLUE SKIES.

We had Thanksgiving dinner yesterday (for family schedule reasons) and I'm really confused today.

Anyway, happy Thanksgiving everybody!

Hey everyone. Hate that I have to post this. My dog was hit by a car tonight and suffered a shattered leg and damage to her intestines. Surgery and medical expenses are roughly $20,000. It’s been a rough year and anything helps.

My father-in-law knows what my favorite beer is and makes sure their fridge is stocked with it every time we visit.

Yes, I do know how lucky I am.

It's a huge-budget all-star disaster movie about the Chicago Fire. It's called Mrs. O'Leary's Cow.

It's been living in my head for almost twenty years now and if I had the power to make it I would and it would be awesome.
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

Me: Let's go.
My wife: Yes, let's.

(They have not gone.)

We should correct this. We'll be in NYC next month.
Hard to believe. Then again, this play warps time, so I have no idea what time it is at any given point.
