Right here’s a little bit of life recently!
Whereas sure, as spring break ticks onward, I do want some house! However what I actually imply is there are such a lot of space-themed happenings proper now!
- Undertaking Hail Mary – LOVED it!! So good. I liked that it wasn’t action-packed (I dislike motion motion pictures) however was nonetheless nice for all ages.
- Environment – nonetheless studying it slowly, nevertheless it has gotten actually good. And I actually appreciated understanding a bit extra about astronaut coaching as I watched Hail Mary.
- Artemis II – Due to the above two issues, I’ve been extra taken with Artemis II’s mission!
I can inform you this: I do NOT need to go into house! Paradoxically, I get claustrophobic simply desirous about it! I feel I really do have a worry of heights as a result of in Hail Mary when he friends over the sting of the ship – OMG – that was scary!!
I’ll take vast open areas please.
Shifting from house to the horror style, Birch has gotten into Goosebumps books! I learn all of them once I was youthful (and Worry Road, too) so I’m enthusiastic about this new curiosity.
He isn’t blowing by way of them – I feel he’s a bit extra into the thought of them than really sitting all the way down to learn. We discovered just a few on the library!
Bloody Summer season Camp 2
Within the grownup horror style, I bought to go to the premiere of Bloody Summer season Camp 2! That is the film that my pal Sean and Jonathon labored on (Sean as an actor, Jonathon as the principle sound man). Since we had that connection, Mazen and Birch bought to behave as campers within the opening scene! It was so enjoyable to see everybody on the massive display screen. The film was superb (in the event you like slasher movies with plenty of blood)!
After the viewing, there was a Q+A with the solid and crew. They’re bringing it to Charlottesville in Might. if anybody needs to go – e mail me! Will probably be on streaming ultimately.
Additionally horrifying? The spot below my washer/dryer.
However all for good cause – I bought a brand new one!!! SO SO SO completely happy about this as a result of the outdated one was the tiniest washer ever, and I needed to do laundry on a regular basis since solely tiny hundreds would match. The brand new one is actually 2x as huge, and I’m thrilled!!
