Current clothes: Dark gray sweats. My Star Trek:TOS t-shirt with Kirk, Spock, and McCoy that says "Beam me the hell outta here!" (Really, I should have worn this one a couple of days ago for Star Trek's birthday, but oh, well.)
Current mood: Kinda tired.
Current music: Nothing, really. But I'm finally getting close to caught up on my zillion-hour backlog of podcasts.
Current annoyance: Apparently Nova has crystals in his urine. So now he needs to eat special food for six weeks, and I have to figure out how to get an antibiotic pill into him once a day. Fun!
Current thing: My current thing was meant to be getting some major projects done around the house during my days off this week, but after much productive activity yesterday, I am now feeling tired, and the muscles in my back hurt a little. So I'm thinking maybe today may be less about climbing up on the ladder and cleaning the gutters, and more about lying on the couch with a book.
Current desktop picture: Still this. I may never get tired of it.
Current book: Biting the Sun by Tanith Lee.
Current song in head: Random snatches of some oldie that was playing in the Denny's when I was there eating pancakes a little while ago. I had such a craving for pancakes this morning.
Current refreshment: Just water, at the moment.
Current DVD in player: Disc 4 of season 2 of Elementary. I feel like I should have a lot to say about this show, but I don't, really. Well, I will say that I like the characters, and that the interpretation is different enough from Sherlock's, in interesting enough ways, that I definitely do think there's room enough in the world for both of them. Which is something I wasn't at all sure about when I started. My interest in the mystery-of-the-week plots is extremely variable, however, and it's not really a show I want to watch more than one episode of at a time.
Current worry: I am still only allowed to indulge myself in worrying at specific, designated times, for the sake of my sanity. Although I've been busy enough the last few days that I haven't really had the mental energy for worrying too much, anyway, which is no doubt a good thing.
Current thought: Despite the appeal of that "lie on the couch and read" plan, I still have a whole bunch of little things I need to get done today, even if I'm not doing any big things. Sigh.

I watched the first couple of Elementary episodes and liked them more than I thought I would, but the idea of watching twenty-something episodes a season... Yeah, I just don't know. I should revisit it, though. The third season of Sherlock kind of soured me on that show, and I do like that Elementary was doing something rather different.
ReplyDeleteI didn't dislike season three of Sherlock nearly as much as some, and I can't say it's soured me, personally, but there's no doubt it's the weakest of the three seasons, and I am hoping for better whenever it comes back.
DeleteElementary may actually be one of those shows that works better if you watch it once a week as it airs, rather than a season at a time on DVD. Maybe I should see if I can catch up to current with it and try that.
