And keep your eyes peeled on James Tabor’s YouTube channel because the lecture today, in his current Jesus Archeology series, should be great!! I think it’s going to be about the excavations at Migdal, and the discovery of 2 ancient synagogues there. Migdal is where Mary Magdalene was from and Jesus of Nazareth definitely preached in Migdal.

Anyway. I will post it here tomorrow, if you miss it today.

I was planning to head into town today to run the errands, but I’ve decided to go tomorrow, instead.

My houseguests are gone for most of the day and I have a ton of intense focusing to do around here, so I think I’ll take advantage of a totally empty house! (Except for the many, many cats who currently call this crazy place home…)

Okay. I have decided to divide my days into two sections and work on two different projects at once.

Yesterday, I spent about 2 hours working on “Novitiate” , but I didn’t make much headway in it. (If I recall correctly, it yielded three paragraphs. But they are paragraphs worth keeping, so that’s saying something.)

I spent the rest of the day, preparing to adapt “The Guide to Being Fabulous” into a screenplay format. I only need a few pages of it to include in our promo package. (See yesterday’s post.) But I need to get this done right away.

Here are two interesting things, though: For some reason, Sandra asked me to use a version of the play that we wrote back in 2017. (I have every version of the play that we’ve worked on since 2014.) As I was reading over the 2017 version of it yesterday, I thought: Wow! This is fantastic!

(Loyal readers of this lofty blog know that I wasn’t 100% keen on the Toronto version of the play. But I’m not going to go into that.)

Anyway, so I was pleasantly surprised to go back in time and encounter an older version of “The Guide to Being Fabulous” that was, well — fabulous.

The next interesting thing — I have spent the past 4 years focusing on writing various plays, and plays and screenplays are written in different formats.

I hadn’t written a screenplay since the last time Peitor and I worked on Lita måste gå! (Lita’s Got to Go!), back in 2020. And I’m on my 3rd laptop since 2020.

Which meant I had to go find my last version of Final Draft (screenwriting software), back on my laptop from 2020. Which, allegedly, began to go wonky in 2020, but 2 laptops later, that first one suddenly works perfectly fine… hmmmmm.

And because of that cloud drive thingie, everything I have on my current laptop, suddenly popped up on the one from 2020….

Just so weird. But what an incredibly convenient thing! So I’m working on the screenplay on an entirely different (and really small) laptop. Which means it is less distracting and helps keep me focused.

I just found it really weird. But in a good way.

And on that note… I gotta get to work here.

Have a terrific Tuesday, wherever you are in the world.

Thanks for visiting. I love you guys. See ya!!
