HotD – No Spoilers

I just finished watching the season two finale of House of the Dragon. No spoilers here, but it was nothing like what I expected it to be.

I will say this though… as cliffhangers go… it sure was one. Cliffhangers on top of cliffhangers on top of cliffhangers. The worst part is we’re probably going to have to wait another two years before we get any resolution. Here’s hoping the break between seasons two and three is shorter by far than the break between seasons one and two.

Sleepy Sunday

I didn’t sleep very well last night and then I got up pretty early (though not as early as I had planned) this morning. I did a bunch of stuff, including lots of chores around the house. There was a little time earlier this afternoon where I actually conked out on the couch. It was only a few minutes, but it happened.

That leads to the sleepiness question… am I going to be able to stay up long enough to watch the season two finale of House of the Dragon on HBO? It comes out at 9:00 on the Max app. I have clean sheets on the bed (one of today’s chores) and sitting up in bed while watching HotD is going to be a challenge.

I thought I might take an actual nap after dinner tonight but Jen and I discovered that the first chunk of the new season of Cobra Kai is out on Netflix so we can’t do anything until we watch that, right?

Right?

TV… we live in the golden age, my friends.

Know What Sucks?

I made it through the episode of House of the Dragon (HotD) without falling asleep. Probably because it was riveting. That’s all the review you get out of me. This is a spoiler free zone. You’re welcome.

Now that the episode is over I can shift my focus onto something that seriously sucks. What to know what that is? Want to know what sucks?

Tomorrow is Monday. The weekend is over. That sucks.

It’s 10:41pm. My alarm is set for 5:00am. That sucks.

The good news is that the project for work that I needed to get done by last Friday was done on time. That’s nice. There is nothing hanging over my head when the work day starts tomorrow. That doesn’t suck.

My two days in the office this coming week will be Tuesday and Wednesday. Tuesday will start in Foxborough. That sucks.

Want to know something that’s crazy and unbelievable? Well, crazy and unbelievable for me at least? I am less than three weeks away from the 20th anniversary of me starting to work at the company I work for. It’s going to be my 20th hire-aversary. That doesn’t suck, but it is crazy.

Okay. I am going to spend a few minutes watching film photography YouTube channels and then I am going to sleep, if I can.

Have a good night, everyone. Talk to you in the mornin’.

House of the Dragon Season 2 Episode 2

The new episode of House of the Dragon premiers on HBO tonight. It is 8:50pm and the episode becomes available on the MAX app at 9:00pm.

I am so tired right now that I don’t think I am going to make it. Hell, it’s 8:50 and I don’t think I am going to make it to 8:51!

If you’ve ever wondered what being in your 50’s would feel like… this is it, folks. Enjoy!

One Period Down

After one period of play in Game Two of the Stanley Cup Final, the Oilers have a 1-0 lead over the Panthers.

Finally.

There is zero chance that this game ends 1-0. Come now, Edmonton. Let’s pad that lead in the second period.

I’m not watching the game, as I don’t have cable anymore and don’t know how to stream ABC. Instead I’m following the gamecast in a browser window while starting to re-watch season one of House of the Dragon because season two starts on Sunday. Gots to get ready for some Game of Thrones Prequel style carnage, am I right?

Let’s go Oilers!

Season Three Episode Nine

The four of us are in the living room watching Game of Thrones. Jen has never seen it but the rest of us have.

We just started season three episode nine. If you’re familiar with the show you know what that means.

Jen is about to have the rug pulled out from under her. Wish her luck.
