So I proved the concept yesterday, and was all excited about playing with it today: thought about it off and on since last night. But when it came time to shoot… blank. So here I am doing a U-Turn. Woo. Exciting. Yawn. I’m going to go put a pen and pad next to the bed, …

365.232 in the zone
Given the afternoon I have ahead of me—ice cream and movie at work that will keep me 2+ hours late, traffic due to lateness, cleaning momma’s house, etc.—it seems unlikely that I’ll have the energy or will ttlo shoot later.
