What Is That Noise?!

Every time I hear the song Serenade by Schubert I think of an episode of something or other featuring, I think, Donald Duck. It shows him being extremely depressed and the ocean luring him in to kill himself. But at the end he rallies and escapes the ocean. Over the whole thing a narrator comments on the heroes struggle.
Has anyone out there seen or heard of this episode? It's driving me crazy. I can find no reference to it anywhere on the internet.

What You Did In The Dark

Book Update: There is nothing to update!

Ever since I finished the first draft I haven't been able to start rewriting. I have done literally zero work since then on it.

It's a bummer!

Work is going so so. I thought I would do really well at this job but I'm only doing sort of okay. And I feel like I'm constantly on the verge of getting fired, which can be very stressful. But such is life, eh? It's strange because I feel like the universe dropped this job in my lap and now it feels like the universe is trying to get me fired. WTF UNIVERSE?!! Jk, universe, jk. I only kid.

What do you mean I have to work hard to keep my job?

The End

Today at 9:54 p.m. I finished my first book. It feels amazing yet still daunting. I have tons of editing and rewriting to do before it's ready to be sent in for publishing but it's such a milestone and I've gotten such a sense of accomplishment from it. I haven't accomplished much in my life. This is nice.

Like A Polaroid

I Just got back from an overall pretty great vacation to see some of my friends get married. . Lots of sleep was not had, lots of food and drink was consumed (probably to much of both) and many great memories were made. I also made a lot of great realizations, some of which are portrayed below.

1-Time is the most precious resource. Not gold or water or even children. Time.

2-Dancing is pretty fun. I'm not great and I probably looked like a whale flailing around in a bad fitting suit but such is life. I just need a little liquid courage and I'm good to go!

3-It's ridiculous to not do something just because of what someone else might think!

4-I really like the acoustic cover of Hey Ya by Matt Weddle.

5-I need to start taking some kind of medication or something and probably go into therapy. I have a lot of issues that I should probably take care of before I have kids. Yeah.

6-I'm not great at Poker and I really don't care that much.

And a lot more probably but it is now lost in a haze of almost memories.
