I finished my house manager duties, last night, early enough to make my way over to my favorite Chinese buffet on Fifth Street.

I wish I had thought to pay attention to my pedometer on my phone so that I could’ve made seven more steps to accomplish an even 8,500. I finished at 8,493. When I complete 5,000 steps a day, I feel great, but when I have such great counts as last night’s,, I feel triumphant.

My goal for this Thursday is to maintain a steady writing process for the early morning and afternoon. I am just teaching two online college classes this morning for a friend.

Last night, we finished the Bluey show at the Schuster Center. I still did not watch the production from my lobby’s balcony monitor, but again, I especially loved seeing all the dads invested in dressing up, or wearing T-shirts from the show. What an experience, as well as a lifetime of memories they are offering their children.

On this day, in 1908, my beloved theatre directing mentor, Joshua Logan, was born.

Okay, on with my day. I hear the school buses pulling in next-door to deposit the students for their school day.

Make it a great day!
