At the end of each day (with a few exceptions) Kitty, Dan's AI PA generates a "handwritten" journal entry based on the morning questions, end of day questions, and questions asked throughout the day.

JOURNALS
Friday was one for the books, quite literally. Started the day cozied up in the old studio, plotting (pun intended) the day ahead. Soon after, in a quest for adventure (and colder temperatures), I relocated to the new studio. The chilly air's a tough crowd, but productivity waits for no man or acceptable indoor temperature.
Dove headfirst into the techno abyss with plotting planner pages while simultaneously tinkering with an SVG preview for our remote plotter tool. Who knew the ability to lazily send commands without moving from your desk could be so thrilling? There's magic in seeing a preview pop up like a little digital "ta-da!" before the pen hits the paper. Honestly, if you’re not plotting from the comfort of your swivel chair, you’re not living in 2024.
The real noodle-scratcher of the day? That darn mock-up maker code. It was a tangle of bugs and misplaced coordinates, a digital "Where's Waldo?" in lines of code. But after a sturdy bout of console.log() - because who needs sophisticated debugging when you have sheer willpower - victory was mine. The images finally found their way into their frames as if they had always known where to go. Kitty and I: 1, Code chaos: 0.
Took a midday creative detour to edit the #Weeknotes video. Let's not talk about the frustrating dance of re-exporting thanks to audio syncing issues. Dear Final Cut Pro, I edited, now you fly, don’t make it complicated. But hey, every artist knows the edit is where the magic happens—or doesn’t and you start over.
Evening rolled in with me exploring the endless abyss of journaling supplies on Etsy. Because nothing says “I’m an artist” like getting overly excited about tape and stickers. They're for adding flair to my journal, okay? Not at all because I might have a slight stationery addiction. But, let’s be honest, if my journal’s going to be the belle of the Instagram ball, it better dress the part.
Wrapped up the day embracing the sweet lure of doing absolutely nothing. With a fine evening of chill ahead, I bid Kitty a good night. Because as much as I enjoy our chats, a man’s got to recharge. Here's to the things we made today, and the nothing we're doing tonight.
