asphaltcowgrrlHey, so how has this last week been treating you? Hopefully your weather isn't too horrird right now. Ours finally chilled TF out and is hanging around our average high/low temps again.
Nothing exciting happening here. Taylor's going to the VGK game this afternoon since it's at 3:00. Maddie's still bopping along. Never did manage my kitten pic post, but hopefully this week.
What I've been reading:
I only finished one book last week and that was Lucky Bounce by Cait Nary. It was super cute and steamy, but it could have used a second point of view. I love Zeke, but it would have made a lot of Spencer's actions and reacitons more understandable if we'd gotten into his head occasionally. Review here if you're interested.
Almost finished with my first Agatha Christie novel - have about 15 minutes left in The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, which is narrated by Richard Armitage. Have to say, I've been loving it so far. Poirot is a nutty SOB.
Reading Twenty-Seven Minutes by Ashley Tate on my Kindle, and Out of the Fog by Clarissa Ross in paperback. The first is an ARC of a mystery/thriller that has been pretty engaging so far, even though I'm only 10% in. The second is an old, gothic romance that looks like it might be a creepy ghost story in the end. Copyright in it is 1970 and the used paperback I got is probably an original print. Might even have come with its own ghost as the cats will not leave it alone. Have to put it in my nightstand when I'm not reading it or it winds up on the floor, under the bed.
What I've been watching:
Finished season 2 of The X-Files and I'm ticked off it ended on a 'to be continued'. LOL I like to take a break between seasons so I don't get burnt out on a show. GRR.
Almost finished with season 12 of Chopped. Also caught up on the three episodes of Night Court that are out. Not nearly as good as the original, but I'm still laughing, so I call it a win.
Taylor wanted to watch May December on Netflix yesterday. Ten minutes in, she noped right out. LOL It was reallly slow to start, so I don't blame her. Instead, she pivoted (PIVOT!) to a new show on Netflix called Fool Me Once, based on the book by Harlan Coben. We devoured five episodes yesterday. Oops. Oh, and![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kaige68, guess who's in that? Mr. Tupperware!
Need to figure out what I'm going to watch next. Ought to consult the list I started. Hahaha. Recs always welcome. I'm even game for things that aren't usually my thing because if it's got a good plot, I'll give it a shot.
On the fitness end, I'm holding steady at least. LOL Down a little over 1lb, which I'll take. Managed three workouts, even if one was only stretching. But I'm getting there. <3
