Good thing I have to work today, right? It gives me someplace to go!
And since it’s so pretty out today, I will probably take my favorite 94-year-old Japanese client back to Geller Park, since he loves it so much over there.
And I’m thinking that this Friday — Good Friday — the weather should be nice enough, and things outside are green enough now, to take him to the restaurant over at the golf course. The one that has such gorgeous views!!
I’ll probably decide at the last minute, though, because if the weather isn’t perfect, we’ll just go back to Peony Bistro for sashimi. The golf club is expensive, and 20 miles from his house, and I don’t want him spending all that money if it isn’t a perfect day.
However, after spending no less than an unanticipated 8 straight hours in PTSD yesterday, because of super high winds around here, and after a chat with Valerie, I have decided to forego the stress of driving 6 hours by myself tomorrow, to visit my dad’s grave for 15 minutes.
Plus the weather report for tomorrow has changed.
If I had someone going with me, it would be so easy. But I am super tired of all the stress here lately. So I will just say some prayers for my dad in the morning, then do some yard work, and spend the rest of tomorrow finishing up the revisions on Act 4 of our TV pilot script.
It wasn’t an easy decision for me to come to, but I woke up this morning and it’s as if the decision had been made while I slept. I knew I wasn’t going.

Okay.
From yesterday’s show in Boston! The opening act, St Vincent, had to cancel due to illness, but the rest of the show went on!
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds‘ Wild God Tour of North America 2025 is officially on the road!! (And check out the comment below. It happens to everybody, gang. So buy a ticket if they’re coming to a venue near you!!!)
Next stop, Brooklyn, NY tomorrow, and Detroit on Saturday night. Buy tickets here.

And here’s this. A photo by Peter Anderson from 1986 that I just love. (This is around the time when I saw him with the Bad Seeds in NYC for the first time! And actually, I couldn’t believe how fucking tall he was. For some reason, I wasn’t expecting that.)

Okay, well. Even though Act 3 is finished, Peitor sent over a few edits to what I revised yesterday, so I want to tackle those before heading out this morning. And then officially begin the revisions of Act 4 (!!) when I get home later, and THEN — we will basically be DONE and sending it off!!!!!! Yay.
Have a wonder-filled Wednesday, wherever you are in the world.
Thanks for visiting.
I love you guys. See ya!

Here’s something beautiful from 1966! (And YES, in case you were wondering, eventually I am going to get back to my erotic novel-in-progress, Novitiate ’66….and I can’t wait!)
The Rolling Stones, “Lady Jane.” Enjoy!!
