kinesis freestyle 2 blue

in

After becoming fascinated with the one Susan Zalkind was using in Hulu’s THE MURDERS BEFORE THE MARATHON (really worth a watch, BTW), I finally picked up a split keyboard, a Kinesis Freestyle 2 Blue (that it holds the same name as my pre-H.E.R.B.I.E. CGM is rife with delicious irony). Results of first morning with it: I really like it – but I did order the tenting/pad addition because I like to have my keys at an angle, especially since it’s on the Uplift standing desk converter; at least after this first morning, I prefer using using the keyboard while standing to sitting, but either way, it’s far better than previous ergonomic efforts.

Reached an acceptance - though probably closer to a resignation - that my "career" as a writer will (most likely) go nowhere. Unlike previous resignations to this, I'm good with it. Doesn't mean I'm giving up or quitting writing – to not write would be akin to not breathing for me – but rather that I'm going to keep doing what I do: show up each morning and write what feels right in the moment, release it, and let the chips fall where they may. Whatever happens happens; I'm going to focus on what I can control – namely, doing work that holds meaning for me and striving to always be moving forward with my craft. Beyond that, fuck it.

CW&T - Solid State Watch

in

Received my CW&T Solid State watch (one of ten from their latest batch drop) and I’m transfixed, intrigued, and in love:

Already decided that this one is going to become my everyday watch – at least until the next time change, upon which my Dick Tracy yellow GShock will assume the mantel (unless I decide I need two Solid States); either way, I will remain hypnotized by the shifting globule of resin encased within. Head over to CW&T’s site to learn more about the Solid State Watch and its creation and to check out more of the wonderful things Chei-Wei and Taylor are building - like the “where were you all my life?” Superlocal.
