usedtobeljsYeah, it's been a hot minute since posting. That is because of WORK and STUFF.
But here are other things to think about:
*The Hiddleston Renaissance! Whooo! As I noted previously, he's filming The Essex Serpent# in, well, Essex, and there are lots of photos from the set of Mr. TH swanning about in ye olde Hot Vicar attire circa the latest Victorian times, and it's all v. pleasing.
#Amusingly, last weekend I thought to myself, "Self, maybe it's time to try to read The Essex Serpent again, despite bouncing off it the first time through. Too bad you returned it to the used bookstore. Perhaps a Kindle?" And then, Amazon told me I had already purchased it for my Kindle many months ago. Which indeed I had.
I can report it's more enthralling this time around.
*Also, related, Hiddleston Renaissance: He's prepping for the onslaught of Loki press, including going to the BAFTAs in a Ralph Lauren tux.
Look, it's been a hard year and a half, I take my simple pleasures where I can.
*Also recently read: the latest in C.S. Harris's Sebastian St Cyr novels, What The Devil Knows. It's a slightly different mystery, based on a real-life murder case. Corruption in Whitechapel with brewers and weird Middlesex politics -- really cool.
*My subtropical Small Town has been Pollen-and-Drought Central this season, but we've actually gotten enough proper rain this week to wash some of the nasty yellow stuff out of the air. HOORAY.
*And I now have my second vaccine shot, and going back to workout is only a couple of weeks away. SO HAPPY.
May your weekend be full of simple or complex pleasures, as you prefer.
