Buffy ,'Same Time, Same Place'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Hi Jess! Glad we made the cut.
I feel like I ought to see Crazy Rich Asians but I kind of hate the title and rom-coms just don't get me in to the theater these days. I'm sure I'll watch it on a small screen eventually and probably like it.
Which train of thought got me to Fandango because it is cheap movie day, after all, which got me an ad for Cache Creek featuring Jim Belushi and that is just cracking me up...he's the "the dictionary defines..." of comedians!
It's not like a Great Film or anything, but I would say it's an enjoyable OTT rom-com. With a setting like nothing I've seen before!
The rehearsal and wedding went well
I saw some pictures you were tagged in on FB -- that dress looked so good on you!
Aw, thanks! The BIDs were all over me this weekend, so it's nice to hear another perspective.
OMG, Hil, that sounds crazy frustrating.
For those who need an adorable kitty break, I posted a short video of Miss Erzabet No Biting over on FB.
Oh, I missed it. I know what my entertainment will be on my next break!
Meanwhile, at work: I was assigned cataloging items in Persian and in Judeo-Persian. I know neither. And I have questions.
Wow, that's...wow. At least...it's an interesting learning opportunity? Yeah, that's all I've got.
Border collies are awesome: [link]
I have my last supply chain mgmt class today
Which I read as 'uppity chain mail class' and wondered, ...why? what? why?
It's too early for a nap, right?
Border collies are indeed awesome. Not as pets, though. Someone once said the best toy for a border collie is a farm. And also, most dogs need jobs, border collies need a career.
OMG, that dog!!
I posted this in Literary, but I wanted to make sure as many people as possible saw it. N.K. Jemisin's Hugo Award acceptance speech.
I would rather be in an uppity chain mail class! That sounds fascinating!
Aw, that dog is great!
Wow, that's...wow. At least...it's an interesting learning opportunity? Yeah, that's all I've got.
To some extant, yes. I did get an index to large parts of the collection, but it was not done by a professional and there are some gaps. So this week I studied semi-successfully the Persian calendar (it does not correspond well with the handwriting in some of the letters), and I know the biography of the person, so when I hunted down today someone from Manuscript department who reads (but does not understand) Judeo-Persian and it helped me to identify a few documents. It's literally a big puzzle game - the index is numbered, but sadly the items are not. Also sadly, it is a depressing puzzle game - a Zionist Rabbi who got to Israel in the 1950s and could not get any work to support his family. It broke his heart and he died within four years.
