Me: Milo, let’s wake up and start our day! Milo: Yes, I’m starting with a nap! He got up from sleeping on his dog bed so he could go sleep on the couch 😂

Meet Milo, a charming pound pup that 2 days ago I had no idea my daughter and I were adopting, but who is now snuggled next to us on the couch while we play Zelda.

I'm doing a mentor session for BAFF tomorrow about pitching TV. TV folks, what 1 piece of advice would you give for 2026? @johnrogers.bsky.social @amyberg.bsky.social @carolekirschner.bsky.social @joehenderson.bsky.social @okbjgm.bsky.social @bobgoodman.bsky.social @roberthewittwolfe.bsky.social

Hey, get that flu shot. Knowing folks who are catching this current flu and it's kicking them in the teeth -- the shot will, worst case scenario, prevent it from taking you to the hospital or the morgue. It might knock it out quicker for you or even help you duck catching it. (Mask up, too.)

I'm helping run a comic-con in NEW YORK CITY! Deadline to apply is February 2nd!

Since I’m not sure how long our spare tire is going to hold out & I think we’re gonna have to deal with getting a new tire soon, just thought I’d share our eBay store again just in case: ebay.us/m/Gxnycd
