An empty aimless day
Tuesday 2nd September, 2025
Coughing
spluttering
Wednesday 3rd September, 2025
I should try
something
at some point
But instead I try
nothing
at all
Thursday 4th September, 2025
Coughing again
Friday 5th September, 2025
This diary
has been
a failure
Saturday 6th September, 2025
Blistered thumbs
from playing Silksong
too much
Sunday 7th September, 2025
There was a lunar eclipse
hidden
behind endless clouds
Tuesday 9th September, 2025
It was hot
and there were squirrels in the park
looking pretty pleased
with all the acorns
on the ground
and in their paws
Wednesday 10th September, 2025
My pen is running out
Thursday 11th September, 2025
There was one single burst of thunder
and that was it
Friday 12th September, 2025
Nearly finished Silksong (I think).
Everything left to do is
impossibly hard
and not much
fun
Saturday 13th Septmeber, 2025
Strange lumps
and cuts
on my fingers today
Sunday 14th September, 2025
So cold today
I shivered
for two hours
straight
Monday 15th September, 2025
It was windy. I stayed indoors
Tuesday 16th September, 2025
Silksong just goes on and on. I’m not sure if this a good thing
or not
Thursday 18th September, 2025
Another day where I have
nothing to say
about anything
at all
Saturday 20th September, 2025
Silksong loses all momentum in the final act
begins to feel
like a slightly joyless slog
Monday 22nd September, 2025
The elegance of an egret
impresses me
again
Tuesday 23rd September, 2025
I saw a crow
flying up high
and dropping walnuts
in the road
Thursday 25th September, 2025
Just the final boss in silksong left to do
after nearly a month
and a hundred hours
and more
Saturday 27th September, 2025
Still can’t beat that final bloody boss
Sunday 28th September, 2025
Two crows on the roof
feathers fluffed up so much
they look almost
round
Monday 29th September, 2025
A black and white cat
surrounded by magpies
seemingly curious as to whether
it’s one of their own
(Also finally finished Silksong today)
Tuesday 30th September, 2025
Egrets and cormorants
on the river
in weather that felt like spring
