8.437. Reflections on a Last Friday

New mission: Spend a while with the Lady Talis sans kids and see what kind of life we can get up to. I am excited for the challenge and the opportunity. We’ve spent a great deal of our lives with kids but never this much time without them, and that is going to be huge for us. We are definitely taking a turn towards being healthy and engaging in a schedule and habits which lead to longer and stronger lives.

Also difficult is the lack of viable televised fiction for two.

We love watching shows together and talking about that engagement, but there is nothing of value new to watch. Perhaps we will give Andor a chance, because there is nothing else worth taking a shot on. Every time we do it ends quickly… and badly. I’ve gotten to the point of realizing that there is not a show out there that hasn’t completed its season or run at this point that we both watch. I’m still watching my “boy” shows on the side, but that is just for me…

Come on, big media. Give me something! Or let me write it myself.

Some Thoughts:

  1. Absolutely Bonkers Headline of the Day: “Judge declares a mistrial in Harvey Weinstein’s rape retrial after jury says it is deadlocked” The original #metoo is getting to say #notme and it is irking my soul. I don’t now anything about the alleged victim, but given this man’s history… Yeah he should not be walking around free. Crazy how powerful a certain demographic can be. I’m still shocked they caught Epstein.
  2. Also this: “North America’s largest commuter rail system faces a potential shutdown” I do not understand how a country whose lore is built on railroads has become so unwilling and unable to maintain and grow that system. I don’t expect Japan, but man I expect something better than this!
