Was I supposed to write today? To read?
To do things that actually mattered to me?
Guess not.

It is ironic, that as I build my tolerance for more and more butt-in-seat time writing, that I see over three thousand words as a marathon.
I hope, someday, that I might triple that and still have time leftover for love.

Sorry, I watched The Spy Who Loved Me and now I’ve got Carly Simon in my head. One of the better Roger Moore ones, but yeah. Barbara Bach. Beautiful, but yikes.
I’m glad the newer Bonds trend toward women who can actually act.
Gotta love Richard Kiel though.

I love Doctor Who and Tom Baker in particular, but The Talons Of Weng Chiang?
Yikes. Racist.
It’s got Leela at her best, however, so there’s that.

Than sitting through eight hours of training over Teams, where you don’t even get to do any hands on activities?
Fuck me, I don’t have that kind of attention span.

Training all day. Being utterly bored. Other people’s drama.
It’s enough to make a guy want to go to bed.
And not in the fun way.

That was cruel. Even though Billy Joel is the worst, it’s not my place to tell people what they like and don’t like. Challenge them by exposing them to better (much better), sure.
But outright condemnation and insults?
That’s beneath us.
Sorry, kid. That was rude. I won’t yuck your yum, even if your yum is a bland piece of unseasoned chicken breast, boiled for too long.
