Spring Season: Week 13
Jun. 5th, 2020 04:36 pmI am... very tired. And very out of words. But I'm still here! Still hanging in there, baby! I guess!
Got to see my grandmother for the first time in months, which was very exciting! The hospital is still under lockdown, but she discovered that they can't actually stop her from leaving the building if she wants to, only the hospital grounds, so as long as she can get herself all the way downstairs and outside, we can visit (at a distance and thoroughly masked)! It's very difficult for her to do that, mind, considering her severe mobility issues and the fact that we're too poor to get her a motorized wheelchair, so it takes her a while, but ain't nothing keeping her from her smoking, so. I might actually get to see her on her birthday, which I had not anticipated! We're back up to four active cases of the 'rona, which isn't great, but the worry is easing somewhat, at least.
( WORK READS )
Cut a VERY deep chunk out of my thumb about four hours into my time off last week (so much blood), which totally fucked all of my productivity plans for the week, but at least I can type again (obviously) and will hopefully be getting my shit in order at... some point. Man, I don't even know any more, I've still got four and a half more days of work to go before I can human again.
Movies are my only constant, and they continue to make me very happy while I'm watching them (for the most part, one of these was a real chore to get through -- try to guess which one before clicking through!):
( The Best Years of Our Lives, Dodsworth, The Westerner, The Portrait of a Lady, Tabloid, Army of Shadows, On the Waterfront, His Girl Friday, Repulsion, Pal Joey, Fly Away Home, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, You Were Never Lovelier, You'll Never Get Rich, Only Angels Have Wings, Dr. Strangelove, The Lady from Shanghai, Gilda, Edge of the City, Cover Girl, The Pawnbroker, Angels Over Broadway, Salome, Murder by Contract, Anna Christie, The Strawberry Blonde, Tomboy, Los Bandoleros, Fast & Furious )
