DP's Online Musings

I’m definately sick. I had to tell Alex and Andrew that I could not watch Lassen today. I want to try to get over this so I don’t infect an airplane full of people next Tuesday.

We were planning on going to the cabin but I told Dean that since the weekend had been busy and I didn’t get anything done and I was probably coming down with RSV (he didn’t get the vaccine yet, but I did) that he should go alone and leave me here with my germs and cats.

While I was not feeling terrible — low-grade fever, scratchy throat, runny nose — I also didn’t feel like doing much. I made a list and crossed off a few pressing things, but otherwise just chilled.

I watched a few things on my phone:

• Christopher Robin — don’t get me started on this. If I knew nothing about Christopher Milne, then I might have enjoyed it, but the only factual parts of the film were the names of the stuffed animals. In the film the main character’s last name was Robin. There was nothing about A.A. Milne, Christopher Robin was not the bookseller he was in real life. I could go on and on.
• The ‘Burbs film (part of) — I’m surprised I never saw this. It was not good, but it had a young Tom Hanks. I’ll probably watch the rest tomorrow.
• The ‘Burbs series — I watched a couple episodes of this and enjoyed it enough to keep on going. I’ll probably watch the film before seeing more of the series.

That’s all for now, good night!
