Happy Wednesday!!! So far, this year has been pretty good for me. Nice New Years, manageable post-holiday work days, fixed Dunki which makes me happy, and scheduled Albie’s annual Vet appointment at a convenient time.
I’ll start!
Watching: I just started “Dark Winds”, the new television adaptation of the Jim Chee-Joe Leaphorn books. It’s really good, and the books are really good, and it’s also kind of an interesting thing culturally. They are books set in the American Southwest on American Indian reservations. They go deep into the location and the culture and all of that stuff. And they are written by a White man who has lived in the region for years. Isn’t that interesting? It’s like me! Someone who is an outsider to the culture, who doesn’t pretend to be an insider, but whose work is all about this other culture.
Reading: The Queen of Denmark abdicated to save her son’s marriage? I find this story confusing, but also very juicy.
Thinking: I gotta start our annual DCIB awards posts!!! What can they be about this year?
Listening: The Dunki soundtrack is really good
Now, question for you! How do you defeat the January blahs? My method is the DCIB awards, nice and distracting.
