It's challenge time!

Comment with Just One Thing you've accomplished in the last 24 hours or so. It doesn't have to be a hard thing, or even a thing that you think is particularly awesome. Just a thing that you did.

Feel free to share more than one thing if you're feeling particularly accomplished!

Extra credit: find someone in the comments and give them props for what they achieved!

Nothing is too big, too small, too strange or too cryptic. And in case you'd rather do this in private, anonymous comments are screened. I will only unscreen if you ask me to.

Go!

Happy (Autumnal/Vernal) Equinox!

Happy Equinox!

Practiced saying "no" with someone who I default to "yes, and..." with. ("Yes, and..." is great for a comedy improv partner, but maybe not so great as a default for someone who might want impossible things on occasion.)

Ergo, the game.

It goes a little like this:

Partner A thinks up a request that
Partner B will (have to) say no to, and not just because that is the rule of the improv scene.
Partner A makes the request.
Partner B gives their honest response to the request, if safe to do so.
(If necessary, follow with a stoplight status check-in, particularly if it was a stressful exchange.)
As long as the answer is still "no", Partner A keeps making the requests. If the answer approaches "yes" or "maybe", switch.

I think I got through my meeting mostly just chastised instead of worse, and all the things mentioned are fixable things.

Music practice last night.
