We watched His Dark Materials tonight. It was…not great. Liz really didn’t like it. I was more ambivalent about it. What it made me want, actually, was to read the books. I remember a long, long time ago reading the very beginning of The Golden Compass. The first few chapters. It’s so, sooo up my alley.
What I also thinking whilst watching the pilot was that it would be so good animated. Like, Anime-style.
There’s still time for this show. Clearly. Pilots are hard. First seasons can be hard. Not writing it off, by any means, just disappointed with the first part of it.
Today was a floating kind of day. I didn’t have as much work in the office to finish, so I came home early, and that’s always anxiety-producing. Need to have a plan when I do that. Sigh. But, I still woke up feeling under the weather, and so I was able to take a nap and kind of rest. I worked on the office for a little bit, took care of the pups, and then Liz came home from her shoot.
All in all…a bit of a lost day.
Which is why I’m looking forward to diving back into routine tomorrow.
