I have a sore throat. It sucks, but if that’s the extent of my unwellness, then it’s not so bad. And! I had a couple of days off of work because of the winter weather! And!!! I discovered a surprise otter!!!
I am presently reading the fourth Codex Alera book, and watching A Man on the Inside.
Randomly thinking of the Goths in The Expanse….
Weird mood this week, I’ve flipped and flopped. By the end of the workday on Friday, I landed on, “Wow, I’m a massive screwup and a waste of space.” Don’t worry, I should be out of it by Sunday. Probably.
I finished reading Jingo, and am currently working on The Hunger of the Gods by John Gwynne. Also watching Black Doves on Netflix, which is a bit different for me, but it’s not bad.
Randomly (well, not really, it was playing on the TV in a place I went to), I was reasonably annoyed about how Curious George, the Curious Little Monkey, isn’t actually a monkey. Anyhow.
They let me out of work early on Friday due to winter weather!
I am presently reading The Quiet Damage, which is about QAnon–or rather, the damage it does to families when people go down that path and become obsessed with its conspiracy theories. It’s interesting, and weirdly made me… not as depressed this week? Like, yeah, I feel a bit aimless in life, but at least I don’t find myself so lost that I think we have to depend on Donald Trump to save the world.
Anyhow! That has nothing to do with today’s Saturday Note. I had this idea a few weeks back, after watching a review and going down a (non-conspiracy) rabbit hole on Rick Riordan’s last book (Wrath of the Triple Goddess).
Uh, so, for a lot of this week I’ve been in something like a Pit of Despair. The whole, ‘it’s another year, I’ve done nothing with my life, I have nothing to look forward to,’ thing. Y’know. All that.
Anyway, I just finished Star Wars: Dark Rendezvous, which was alarmingly good? Not sure what’s next. Still watching Jentry Chau, and the 10th episode is basically a season finale, but there are three more episodes? Getting confused on the last few episodes of Interior Chinatown, too.
I am trying to finish up Dragon Age: Inquisition, before I get to trying out God of War.
