There was a while where subtitles on Hulu didn’t seem to be working (or at least, not in sync with the audio); but that’s been fixed, so this week I finished The Three Musketeers: Milady in French! Had a cliffhanger ending, though, which was, uh, a bit of a surprise.
Presently reading an Alatriste book.
I will be out of town next weekend, so I don’t know if I’ll have time to write another Saturday Note. But we will see!
After getting swarmed by mosquitoes last weekend, this weekend should be chill and less blood-sucker-y. I started watching Mr. Robot on Netflix, which is different, but interesting so far. I’ve also read two nonfiction books in a row, so next is a comic and then we’re back to a couple of fiction books.
Slowly working my way through God of War; just pulled up to the giant stone mason.
This week I finished my re-watch of the Netflix Marco Polo series. Given that it ended on a cliffhanger, it was a bummer that it was canceled after only two seasons, though it’s not like it was brilliant television all the time anyhow. Next on Netflix will be… I dunno, Mr. Robot, or something?
The tummy felt a bit crappy through most of Friday, but seems to have recovered nicely.
Almost wrote about The Dragon Prince and its continuation Kickstarter, but this came up and I’m afraid I’m going to forget. So. Here we go.
So, uh, the daytrip planned for today is postponed on account of it being, uh, obscenely hot outside this weekend? Hopefully it’ll go on without a hitch. I did manage to try all three of the superhero donuts at Krispy Kreme this week, though, which is kind of cool.
I just finished another Discworld book; next is Scott Pilgrim’s finale, I think? I’m also looking at a new book, we’ll see how that goes.
I saw Superman and had a great time! Krispy Kremey also has DC superhero-themed donuts, if you’re interested. I just finished re-reading Tyrant’s Throne by Sebastien de Castell, and after that is… The Truth? Or maybe The Mesopotamian Riddle? Could be Delilah Dirk?
I am out of town this weekend, so I’m trying to get a headstart on writing this Saturday Note. The idea has been in my notes for at least half a year now; since pretty early in my start of playing Dragon Age: Inquisition.
I finished the Songs of Penelope trilogy this week, and now I’m reading another Artemis Fowl book–though I realized that I skipped The Artemis Fowl Files and will need to go back for that. I also started playing God of War, and spent a lot of time throwing and catching that axe, because it’s fun as heck.
My laptop doesn’t know if it needs to update or not this week.
Catholic Charities of Central Texas is one of the groups taking help for victims of the floods.
It is the Fourth of July weekend! I am off from work on Friday, so that theoretically gives me time to sit and work more on this Saturday Note. In practice? Uh…. don’t know about that, champs. I had trouble coming up with a subject. I know I told you guys I was going to do Star Wars, but given the holiday I thought it might be nicer to do something related to the country or history or something.
The filler title in my planner was ‘Hope for the Future’, but, uh… it’s not that I have no hope, okay, it’s just that I’m not someone who can exactly do rousing calls for hope. It’d probably end up making me sound stupider than usual.
I also finished Andor and Dragon Age: Inquisition! Next game will probably be God of War, while the next television show is… probably back to Burn Notice. Although the new Librarians is also on Hulu right now.
