Correct!! Monday! Which means I’m off to the shooting range!

And I am really, really, REALLY trying to use creative visualization here this morning so that I can simply show up at the range and not have to ask for help with — yet again — loading the fucking bullets!

Once they’re in the gun, I seem to be okay!! (I’m also hoping for 50 out of 50 bullseyes today!! We shall see, gang.)

Okay, if you follow Simon Parkes, be sure to listen to his update from yesterday.

(If you aren’t a member of Connecting Consciousness, you can join HERE — it’s free. You can’t listen to Simon’s updates without being a member.)

His updates agreed with what Phil has been reporting recently (regarding tariffs, gold, silver, etc.), but I have to say that Simon gave more detailed information and I found it very, very interesting (and really good news for many countries around the world, not just the US).

Also, Phil is supposed to be live again tonight, at 7PM Eastern time. Check here later to confirm.

Some sort of sad news — Blackie’s little grey kitten has some issues with her back paws. One of them is sort of like an underdeveloped club foot, but the other didn’t develop at all. It’s sort of like a tiny dead little paw.

So either it will be missing both back legs as it gets a little bigger, or it will have 3 legs, with one of them deformed.

So I’m guessing we’re keeping the little grey one, and choosing a name for it soon, and giving it a lifetime of LOVE.

On we go, gang.

I follow Metrograph (a NYC indie movie theater) on Instagram but I only found out yesterday that for $5 a month, you can watch their movies online in the US (and/or get a discount on tickets for watching movies in the actual theater in NYC).

On their website, they also have interviews, columns, essays — exclusively about independent films, both domestic and international, past and present. Check it out below to see what’s currently playing online and in the theater, or read the great online Journal. They’ve got some great films:

As luck would have it, Nick Cave just now sent out a new Red Hand File — all about what he was doing & thinking about yesterday morning in a little town in Pennsylvania!

It’s another short one. You can read it HERE.

And don’t forget!

TOMORROW! In Boston, the Wild God tour gets underway in North America!! Followed by a show in Brooklyn on Thursday, April 17th. BUY TICKETS HERE!

And you know what this all means — that in 18 days, Kara and I will be driving to downtown Columbus to see them at the Palace Theater, and staying overnight, HERE!!!

Yes, I have an alert on my phone to remind me to pack the tickets!! They’ve been stuck on the front of my fridge for something like 6 months already…. the envelope is covered in big black exclamation marks (!!!) and arrows pointing to the name “NICK CAVE” so that I won’t forget to bring the fucking tickets!!!

And I still don’t know what I want to wear. Kara always looks incredibly amazing, so it’s better to dress down than to try to outdo her. She still smokes cigarettes and drinks more espressos per day than you can shake a stick at, so she weighs about 1 pound and everything looks great on her!!

Okay, I guess that’s it for now. I need to proofread the work I did on Act 2 of the pilot script yesterday and send it off to Peitor. Then, after I come home from the shooting range, work on the revisions of Act 3.

We’re getting there, gang! Only half of Act 4 needs revisions, and none of Act 5, so we are seriously, almost there!!

Enjoy your Monday, wherever you are in the world.

Thanks for visiting.

I love you guys! See ya!

I thought this was appropriate today!

Since it’s apparently going to take Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds two days to get from Boston to Brooklyn, I figure that they must be walking there…

So, once again, the Beastie Boys classic, “No Sleep Till Brooklyn”. 1986. I love this fucking song!!!! Enjoy, gang.
