All is well
Aug. 24th, 2020 05:03 pmBoss is back, she had a nice two weeks off, and I don't seem to have done anything terrible while she was away. I kind of forgot I booked Thursday and Friday off work this week so I only have 2 more days at work and then I have 5 days off including the weekend and bank holiday. Can't wait!
I had a pretty chill day yesterday. I ended up watching episode 2 of Street Dance of China with the Australian gang in the afternoon and a couple more people joined us this time which was fun. I've already reached the point where I have Opinions on some of the routines. I couldn't tell you from a technical standpoint what's good and bad but I can tell when something flows well and complements the music. I'm enjoying it a lot and I think we're going to watch another one on Thursday while I'm off. Because the Australians are so far ahead time wise the only time we can do it is morning/early afternoon my time which is evening for them. We're making it work and it's a lot of fun.
I only managed to get 400 words of fic written yesterday but it's ticking along. I would really love to have a first draft finished this week. I'm getting close to the end it's just a case of finding time when I have so many other things to do. I swear I'm more busy now that I'm stuck at home than I was before COVID.
I'm also getting towards the end of Lost Tomb. I'm generally getting through 2 episodes per evening and I've got 12 left to watch but with my 5 days off coming up I reckon I can have it finished by the end of the weekend. Originally when I was finished I was going to watch Sleuth of the Ming Dynasty as a lot of people recommended that to me. But I think I'm going to watch the other Lost Tomb shows instead. I think![[twitter.com profile]](https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico)
MadamoiselleBon is keen for us to watch them so we can stream together on a Saturday like we're doing with Reboot. At least Lost Tomb 1 is only 10 episodes long. Lost Tomb 2 and The Mystic Nine which is a prequel show are longer. Well, at least I won't be bored any time soon.
And, speaking of Lost Tomb, I watched another two episodes last night. Things have taken a turn. I think it's telling that I barely had anything to say about episode 19 when I was livetweeting.

Oh, and I need to issue a retraction. A couple of days ago I described the new BTS song as 'not particularly memorable' and the joke's on me because it's been stuck in my head for DAYS! I did say to someone on Twitter that it felt like the sort of song that might grow on me and that's definitely what's happened.
I still generally prefer their hip hop/rock songs but this is a fun summer pop song and I actually really like it now I've listened to it a few more times.
