Jun. 23rd, 2019 03:59 pmQuiet weekend. One of the nice things about my apartment is how quiet it is. High ceilings, wood floors, nice view of sky, trees, and the tops of houses, little row houses with triangular roofs. And outside of the occasional siren or jet plane overhead, there's little noise. I do hear crickets, birds and the feral cats roaming the neighborhood. They have singing contests on occasion. (And no, cats really can't sing...)
There's also a neighborhood opera singer who occasionally lets loose. Often in a language I do not know. And a couple of Bengali chanters. But other than that, relatively quiet. And the above two haven't heard in a long while.
I did take a short walk, but my knee was bugging me so I made it short not as far as Greenwood Cemetary.
After a noisy week of ceaseless and meaningless chattering, it's nice to have the quiet.
I've fallen down the comic book rabbit hole again. ( Read more... )
Also watching television sporadically. Saw two more episodes of The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina -- ( Read more... )
Reef Break with Poppy Montgomery playing an aging surfer and hustler, who returns to her home to reconnect with an FBI agent/estranged hubby, and ends up becoming a police liason, isn't bad. It's sort of fun in places. But feels rather flimsy. Reminds me a little of The InBetween. The writing is weak, while the casting is sort of fun.
The Good Fight -- CBS is showing the first season of the Good Fight in order to tempt people to subscribe to CBS All Access -- I'm still holding out, even though I want to see both it and Star Trek Discovery. ( Read more... )
And I've seen Grand Hotel mainly for Bryan Craig who plays the disabled son and to date is the best thing in it. Although it definitely has potential. It's sort of a soapy murder mystery/revenge fantasy with a mostly POC cast. Done by Eva Longeria, the actress who was in Desperate Housewives.
It's a pretty day. Relaxing. Got some housecleaning done. Sent the robot vacuum around the apartment. I probably should upgrade at some point. But holding off.
And cleaned the bathroom a bit.
