- I tried to start writing a blog about Netflix but I got distracted by Netflix.
- Is that considered Netflix meta-thinking?
- It is Wednesday and I'm only half considering jumping off a cliff because the week is half over.
- I'm jealous of people born in the UK because I wish I had a British accent. I wonder if it is easier for someone with a Scottish or Irish accent to portray an English accent in comparison to an American trying to do so. I'm also guessing there is a standardized British accent that is desirable for television, just as there is a standardized American accent that is desirable for television (as I learned in my Linguistics class, that accent is the Midwestern accent. I guess I have something going for me.)
- I'm pretty much guessing this because British accents sound so polished and intelligent on these BBC shows, but the accent of Lauren Cooper is pretty much all I heard while I lived in Grantham.
- P.S., I changed the language on my iphone to British English. It kept changing "realize" to "realise" and I loved it, but I had to change it when I texted it because that's not how we spell it in 'Murica.
- My bullet points are disorganized, my apologies.
- Work is making me want to slam my head against my desk. It is incredibly stressful this week. I'm ready for Friday, as it is a half day and we get our Christmas bonus. I'm not getting my hopes up though, I've been disappointed before.
- This is the last week hubby and I are eating whatever we want. He finds out tomorrow, hopefully, if he has this muscle disorder. If not, we are going to start going back to the gym and eating well. My goal is to lose 20 pounds and go down a jean size. His goal is to lose 50-60 pounds and bulk back up, I'm guessing. I'm pretty frumpy lately; I'm a stress eater.
- I want to be in good shape when we go to London so I like the pictures we take. I want to take a lot more pictures this time around, I don't think I took enough last time.
- I don't understand why Lancelot died in Merlin when he's supposed to be a Knight of the Round Table. (Is that supposed to be capitalized because it comes from legend? English major fail.)
- Every article I have read lately about "what to do with an English major" has made me want to die. "Become a copy writer!" "Work for businesses!" "Write medical articles!" blah! No!
- I'm sleepy. Alas, alack, alas, away to sleep I go (said in British accent). And when I say, to sleep, I mean, I need to finish a few more episodes of Merlin and then pass out after eleven o'clock at night and then hate my life tomorrow morning at work.
- um ok, bye then.
