Ramblings of an EdMan

Rest is good. 

Total crash day today. 

I did watch the last 4 episodes on “Last Chance U” on Netflix which was very good. 

Was thinking of writing a blogpost about how much sports are subsidized at all levels early this morning but that smacks of effort. 

Planning to leave the house tomorrow. 

Wooo! 

It’s hard to not give spoilers. 

I probably shouldn’t fear them so much. 

But, this is an incredible show. Fascinating acting, great writing and a sense you don’t totally know everything. 

Eliot is one of the more interesting characters that I can think of. 

I haven’t caught up to season 2 yet, but there is something wonderful about its world. 

And of how we all have many parts of our personality. 

Great to see Christian Slater again too in a part that at least for me makes me think of “Pump Up the Volume” in a way. 

The first season of Mr. Robot is on Amazon Prime along with one of my other favorite shows of the summer “BrainDead.” The other show which has totally blown me away is “Stranger Things” on Netflix. Television can allow for richer stories than movies. 

And I totally want a Mr. Robot flannel. 

She told me so, some it must be true. 

Like totally, for sure, totes! 

I’m watching a Stephen King night at the old Strand theater oddly owned by the Knights of Columbus in Seymour. 

It’s a movie I haven’t seen before and although it’s totally ridiculous, it was a lot of fun. 

It is a beautiful car, if totally awful and ridiculous. Good fun. 

This took a little bit of getting used to but kept getting more clever. 

The adventures of Stacy the Rebel pilot as she is part of the original Star Wars trilogy. 

I found the first episode very awkward but it kept getting better. 

Very clever little play on Star Wars that’s on Amazon Prime. 

Very playful and fun. 

Right now I have two cats on the chair, both Lenny and Squiggy.

I’m about to get them a new Da Bird toy, since they chew through their current one and are addicted.

But, I don’t want to get up with two kitties in the chair.

I am most definitely catted and a cat dude.

Decided to use some ingredients that I haven’t used enough. Some rice noodles, some almost freezer burned leftover rotisserie chicken and some garlic and olive oil. I almost think I didn’t the chicken.

It tasted pretty good but add fish sauce and it was magically delicious. I ate like three portions.

I add fish sauce a lot for leftovers and it seems like it hardly puts a dent in my big bottle of Squid brand fish sauce.

Delicious!
