I did not intend so, but this month is nearly all TV reviews. Not so bad, since I haven't written about TV in a while. (I make no apologies for writing about TV a lot, as it swamps every other art form in our daily lives.)
At the moment most of my obsessions are getting the little annoyances of my life straightened out. For whatever reason, the extended very cold winter left me quite antsy about getting stuff done. This was exacerbated when pretty much everything I had planned to have done for me needed to be re-done and re-done again such that I spent the bulk of May running back home from the office to deal with workers, whom appear to be unable to schedule their activities with anything less than a six hour margin for error. The fireplace took three visits and even then I had to figure out how to get it right myself. The sprinklers took two visits and still left me with work to do on my own and the folks were so haphazard I have to find another service. The car two visits to find out nothing could be done (more below).
The highlight of the month was the, now annual, trip to Nashville Indiana for the Gnaw Bone 10K, the World’s Toughest 10K. It’s a killer race, but a really enjoyable experience.
And I’m making some progress writing, but my current project is in a genre quite foreign to me and I’m struggling with the plot intricacies. There is nothing to do but keep going and remind myself that it has to be bad before it’s good.
