There are probably few things more useless than a blog post about how little you’ve been posting lately. One of them is probably an apology going into detail as to why you haven’t been posting.

I’m not completely sure why I haven’t been writing much in the last week or two, but I’m guessing that with the huge pressure building up to Summit on Racism last week, I just haven’t been motivated to do much that requires thought.

For example, my wife wasn’t home tonight. She had choir practise. I had several hours to myself. I could have worked on my novel, master’s project, business website, washed dishes, or attempted to clear our floors of our children’s toys.

Instead, I read Inside Gilligan’s Island, Sherwood Schwartz’ book about the process of bringing the show to the air and keeping it on the air.

Time well spent.

I think.

Well anyway, I now know a lot more about 1960’s television executive politics than I did yesterday. That might help me if I ever go back in time and need to start a tv series.
