I spent the morning reading, which is something I haven’t done for a while. I like Cunningham and I actually liked that I saw the movie before so I’m not exactly reading for plot.
In mid-morning I went to the library to pick a book on hold. It is a really nice walk and it has been a while. I picked up a collection of stories that includes the latest Jim Butcher’s story, “Curses.” (The book is called “Naked City” and its focus is urban fantasy.) So really I walked for 40 minutes to an hour for a 31 page story. But totally worth it. It was a very lighthearted story. Harry had to be polite for a change which I’m sure was hard for him. I know this universe so well that I figured out a clue half a page before Harry did. And it was amusing. Cute story. And nice to see Harry before everyone went to hell.
Today’s weather was making me very sleepy or maybe it was just my week catching up with me but I napped for hour and a half. And then I spent the rest of the day feeling groggy.
I did work on my Germanic law lecture for Monday and made my list of things to do for the next week. I like having this list, it is very useful to make sure I don’t forget anything for all my classes.
Now that the RS Games story is all done and betaed and submitted (whole 23 hours before deadline) I started thinking about the History Big Bang I signed up for. I’m going to do a Highlander story with Methos and I think I will base it around one of my law cases – just going through the property law case process in the 14th century England. Hopefully, that will make me care about my dissertation more.
Doctor Who S6E12 Well, we all knew it was River in the suit. Not really a surprise. I did really like this episode. Having Amy there for just a second was actually perfect. Of course, she is modeling. And I like Rory just holding her bags there. Craig makes a great Companion and his Daddy love saves the universe. Alfie/Stormy interactions with the Doctor were adorable and everyone loving the Doctor at the store was funny too. So I really liked this for all the Doctor and Craig and baby interactions. And the stars on the ceiling. Oh, that scene. And Doctor travelled in time to clean Craig’s house. And the Doctor got the envelopes and the hat. But did he just travel for 200 years by himself to be the age we saw in the premiere. This felt like Doctor Who.
