Fri. April 24, 2026: The Start of a Very Shakespearean Week

Friday, April 24, 2026

Waxing Moon

Sunny and cold

Friday, Friday, nearly time for the weekend!

I went down to the mechanic and was there just a few minutes after they opened. They had the blades in stock – who knew I needed two different sizes? I know now! The mechanic also taught me how to switch out the blades, gave me a spare set of clips and special cloths to wipe the blades in case they get streaky. Good thing I cleaned out the glove box a few months ago! Each blade had to be bought separately (for what a pair used to cost), but it was still within my budget. And these blades are so much better than the other ones.

I was done in 15 minutes.

Back home, played with the cats because it was too early to head for the stores. I put in a Chewy order for more dry food – got to keep those tummies full.

The fog cleared up, and it was nice and sunny. I grabbed my bags and headed out for errands. Grocery store first. I shopped more than I planned, but some items I wasn’t expecting for a few weeks were in, so I grabbed them. I mean, now that we’re stocking for the Apocalypse, and all that. I grabbed a bag of decaf coffee by mistake, but I will mix it with the one with caffeine in it (two bags were on sale for the price of one, and I grabbed the wrong one). If I just drink decaf, I get very sick, but if I mix it, I should be okay. Or, I might go back to the store and see if I can switch them out. Liquor store next – it’s almost rosé season. They had a lovely looking bottle of Portuguese rosé on sale, so I grabbed it. Library last, just as they opened. Dropped off a big stack of books; there were only 2 to pick up.

Home, unloaded, put everything away. Took a break, then turned my attention to BETTING MAN. Got about 1K done, less than I hoped, but hit the day’s goal.

Did the day’s marketing.

The #FreelanceFriends chat was fun, with a guest I hadn’t had a chance to chat with in a long time.

Ate lunch on the porch, enjoying the beautiful weather.

Switched to the ghostwriting. Got some good work in, where I hoped to be. Today I have to add in a few things, give it a polish, and I might be able to get it out by the end of the day. Fingers crossed. Then I could switch back to the other assignment on Monday, and get that out by early the following week.

I was done early enough I even had time for a bit of a break before getting myself together and heading for the book swap. I even got some planting done – more cat grass, more wildflowers (packet from a different company), lemon balm.

It was lovely weather to walk down, nice and sunny, not too cold, a bit of a breeze. The book swap was a lot of fun. One of the two books I brought was scooped up almost immediately, which made me happy. I found a book I’d been looking for, and having trouble finding a copy.

The only person I knew was the owner, but everyone attending chatted and was happy about being there. I’m glad I went.

Came home, made pizza, had a quiet evening. Weird dreams in the night.

Up early, out to the laundromat, got the laundry done, and will put it away after breakfast. I’ll try to get maintenance scheduled in here at some point, too, either today or early next week. I’ll finish the ghostwriting assignment this morning (I hope) and work on BETTING MAN once that’s out the door.

I’m making salmon with a honey miso glaze in the crockpot tonight, and it only needs 2 hours, so I have to remember to actually do it this afternoon.

Tonight, our associate member show closes at FutureLabs. I’m going to nip down just for a bit to look at everything one last time.

Tomorrow, at 5, when the gallery closes, I will drive down and pick up my pieces, bring them home, have a quick bite of dinner, before I head to Mosaic Gallery. The friend who runs a Shakespeare company is doing a performance of KING LEAR. On Sunday, my radio play “Inspired By” that was produced in the UK goes live. In the afternoon, I’m supposed to attend an artist talk up at Eclipse Mill, the converted factory that’s live/workspace for artists.

In between all that is housework, finish reading the scripts for the literary committee meeting next week, and do some serious work on contest entries. I also have to make some decisions on a couple of things that need answers by next week.

Next week is very busy, too, mostly with the local Shakespeare Festival, but also with the literary committee meeting, wrapping up contest entries, and ghostwriting deadlines. It’s the good kind of busy, it just requires focus.

Have a good one!

This isn’t a platform meant to #pressure users into making purchases. Providing a link to the shop is sufficient, but language that introduces #deadlines or creates a "sense of urgency" should be avoided.

Thank you😉

“#Amazon has told managers to incorporate projected #AIEfficiencies into headcount planning for the year, according to two people familiar with the matter.

This has led to pushback, including an open letter signed anonymously by current and former #staff members, which argued the company was investing in a #future where it would be easier to discard #employees.

“Here’s what we’re actually experiencing: higher expected output and shorter timelines, mandates to build #AITools for wasteful use cases, and massive investment in #AI with little investment in career advancement,” the letter, published last November, said.

“As soon as AI got introduced, #deadlines started shortening, and people were expected to do more as quickly,” said one signatory who was made #redundant last year. “It was heavily implied we would be graded on use.”

Multiple current #AWS #software #developers said they were being asked to take on new #roles with the assistance of AI tools. They noted technical writing teams had been laid off, with engineers now required to complete these tasks. AI use had also been formally written into some workers’ promotion criteria, the developers said.”
