Life’s Act III comes with its fair share of creaky knees, misplaced reading glasses, and an occasional moment of walking into a room and completely forgetting why you’re there.

The (Almost) Daily Dennis

5/9/25: Creative Act IIIers. It’s becoming a thing. See what Retirement House is up to here.

4/21/25: This Humans of New York installment speaks to those of on either side of the Act II and Act III divide. Link

4/17/25: New post tonight. Sure to be a Hollywood blockbuster. Clear your evening’s calendar.

4/13/25: The weekend of The Fork’s table read. Cast slays. The world can be loud. But for one morning, in a small theater with big dreams in Utah,  it was music, laughter, and the courage to begin again. Details to follow. Watch this page for all the juicy details.

4/12/25: I am “watching series on hidden villages of England and loving it” years old.

What’s blooming now isn’t late – it’s right on time, made from the full compost of a life well-lived and lessons hard-earned. This work didn’t come despite the delay, but because of it.

4/9/25: Been a minute since I posted. Debated whether to click the publish button. Today’s post is a bit mopey, but maybe it’s okay every now and then. Back at it tomorrow.
