1. COVID
thoughts on COVID for whatever they are worth )

2. Seen second episode of Good Omens - so far so good. I'm enjoying it. This - I find amusing. Gaiman has a charming wry wit - that works for me. I adore Crowley. He was actually my favorite character in the book as well. Arizaphale gets on my nerves. Give me the snarky character any day of the week. Also the biblical satire is witty, subtle and works.

Arizaphale: Avante!
Crowley: No.
Arizaphale: What do you mean, no?
Crowley: I mean no. I have a permit.
Arizaphale: To kill goats!
Crowley: Well yes.

That I find amusing.

Also, I have a crush on David Tennent. Apparently everyone else online has a crush on Michael Sheen. I admittedly walk my own road in life.

I'm watching this for Neil Gaiman (whose sense of humor works for me, I like dry British wit and satire), and David Tennent, also the David Tennent/Michael Sheen by-play.

3. Did very little today. Fought briefly with Wales over text message. Read more... )

Mother's doing well - she's excelling at Mahjong. But apparently is running into people who can't figure it out and refuse to learn it or practice. I inform her that not everyone has patience for games. Mother also adores Bridge. She's doing better than I am at this socialization thing.

I'm trying to get myself to go back to my church. It didn't happen today, although I did watch it online, and the sermon was..reassuring. It was about how we are all changing and the world is changing, and that's okay.
Also, how reality is kind of just atoms bumping against each other - and not really there. It's real but not truly solid, and not to worry about it all that much.

The temporariness of life is oddly reassuring at times, as is the fact that reality can be but a construct of the mind and senses.

Started writing fanfic about Cyclops in captivity struggling to deal with his situation. Then gave up. I may go back to it. Not sure what I'd do with it. I'm afraid of the X-men fandom. Comics fandom is kind of scary. The soap opera fandom is kinder. Heck, the Buffy fandom was kinder than both.

Tomorrow is the beginning of yet another busy, frenetic and frustrating work week of trying to push a proverbial boulder up a cliff while people through rocks in my path. I feel like Sisyphus.

4. I asked for a Blue Sky invite or login, but alas no. It's okay. I'll survive.
