Lot’s of distractions this week, including keeping an eye on the dog who is improving every day.
I started my editing passes on Article V. It is slow going, but probably should be. I am reading a classic, but not dedicating much time to that either. It has been kind of a slog and doesn’t really allow for long stretches. I find myself having to pause and absorb.
My wife picked up something at the store for me that was a wonderful surprise. It is called Goose Island Bourbon County Stout. This stuff is like ambrosia. I’ve only had one a couple of nights ago, but might go there again after this posts.
Three of the “old guys” from work are going to get together for lunch on Tuesday. I am looking forward to that, but really don’t have anything new to share. We all retired from the same hellhole and I’m just excited to see them all.
Lately, I have been on a bit of an apple mission. I’ve been buying the bags of five to seven. This means they are the B-grades and could be a bit misshapen or even smaller than the ones that go in the display areas of the store. Doesn’t affect the way they eat.
The good news is that none of them are bad. I enjoyed the Honeycrisps, but they might be a little softer than some of the others. Fujis were crunchy and sweet. I tried a new-to-me one called Sugar Bee. These were also good, but they have a mighty skin on them. We’re talking the kind of skin where you need dental floss afterward.
Fuji’s are probably my favorite so far, but there is a bag of Galas waiting for me in the refrigerator.
I decided to binge watch Monarch just to get ready for the new season coming up. This season dropped in 2023, and I forget a lot of stuff when they take three years between seasons. This is just how modern streaming works and I should be excited when my favorites get a second season at all. I should think about the last season of The Boys before the final season drops in a month or two.
I hope all of you had a good week and are enjoying your weekend. Drop me a comment and let me know what you’re up to these days.
