bearshortyPlanet Earth. “Great Plains” not my environment - too vast. I’m kind of dragging on watching the next three episodes; I might take a break after this. Things I enjoyed: Mongolian gazelle migration to give birth all together, the storms, swarms of birds, arctic tundra (I’m glad that when I was little we had a geography class, I still can name all environments of earth), arctic fox trying to stuff too many goslings into her mouth, bison, yak, long grass in tropical India and contrasting with African elephants, hungry lions going after elephants at night, baboons carefully wading in water, how they filmed lions vs elephant in total darkness with infrared lights.
Went for a nice walk today since I had to go to the bank. If we do go to Minsk I will have to get presents for various people and I had fun just contemplating presents for a four year old girl. I can go crazy with this just thinking of toys and goodies.
Watched more Olympics (while cross-stitching in the afternoon, so just keeping it in the background): today we had ski jumping (I have a Wii game of it which I want to play more – this sport is insane), speed skating, short track, moguls and a bit of biathlon. Two minute of coverage followed by ten minutes of commercials and talking nonsense is not the way to show Olympics, NBC. I actually want to see the whole biathlon (I remember it as one of the first sports on Olympics I saw and that was a long uninterrupted segment). I did like moguls more than I thought I would – it was exciting to see them go that fast.
“Graveyard Book” Chapter 6. Very funny bits but also a bit more seriousness as Bod is getting older. It is really weird not knowing what is to come since I can’t skim ahead.
