I reintegrated myself a little bit with the 21st century yesterday. Nothing major. I just signed up for Netflix. I did so at around 6pm and by the end of the night I had watched one episode of Daredevil and three episodes of Stranger Things. So I think I’m hooked. I had hesitated for so long because 1) the content when Netflix Canada started was sorta lacking and more importantly 2) my internet connection was unreliable to the point where I couldn’t stream anything. The second issue has been fixed so that it’s no longer a big concern. The final straw came as I was looking at a Bluray box set of Daredevil and said to myself, “I can buy this for $40 and own it but probably only watch it once or pay $10 and watch it (and more) as many times as I want anyway.” And so sanity prevailed. I guess my need to own my entertainment content is fading. Do I need to turn in my geek card now or does this up my geek quotient? I need to read the bylaws.
I finished the Masters of the Universe set of pictures. I completed both Chae mash-ups over the weekend. Before I start working on a new set, I think it might be time to update the sight a bit. The background and banners date back to the first year so it’s long past due. They’re no longer representative of my level.
I signed up for the boardgamegeek Secret Santa over the weekend. Last year’s Secret Santa gifted me with Lords of Waterdeep which has turned out to be my mother’s and my very favorite game. I don’t know that lightning could strike twice, particularly since I know what’s on my wish list, but it’s a lot of fun anyway. It’s interesting to see what’s on my target’s wish list and compare their tastes with mine and find something they”ll enjoy.
No other news this week. Have a good seven and we’ll do this all again next Monday. Carja V.
