Flash Gordon is an awesome movie. Not a good movie by any means, but an awesome one.

Without the Queen soundtrack, it wouldn't be nearly as fantastic.

True that.

I feel the same way, for the same reasons, about the early days of the Highlander series.

I just saw an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation where Picard is captured and tortured. The Cardassian keeps trying to make Picard say there were five lights shining when there were clearly only four. I think the idea was that once you were trained to disbelieve the truth you could see on orders of a controlling power, they could make you do anything they wanted. Seems timely.

Chain of Command! What an episode. Patrick Stewart owns everything.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I finally just got the ancient media computer to boot into Windows again, and it tried to start me back at the beginning of The Musketeers. I'm started to wonder if it's Groundhog Day.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I called to ask my boss a question about how to join a skype meeting that I could not find. Turns out I couldn't find it because it was yesterday. She asked, "Are you alright?" "Apparently not. I've been fighting this nasty cold that's going around, and I don't think I'm winning." "Go home."

I love my boss. (I had to buy groceries for the house before I left, but I am home now.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Good boss, glad you are home.

Today would be a really bad day to get stuck in a Groundhog Day loop.

Is zillow safe to rent from,or is it just as susceptible to scams as Craigslist? Looked at one place online but they said it had been rented already, then they gave me another address in the same complex that isn't listed but they say is theirs.

Hell, yah. I was checking Twitter for a bit, but I have to stop. Slept LATE, which was nice, took the dog for a walk, and caught up on The Good Place (WOW). Now I have to go find a notary public and make a TJs run. I don't really feel like getting caught up in the local protests today.

About which, they closed my building entirely today because of the expected protests -- if I were working today, I would be paid to have the day off.

I really don't want to rise from my cozy futon, but there is shit to be done.
