Binge-watching. . . that is.
Just watched the final episode of the Mandalorian season2, watchiung the first episode of "The Stand", waiting for the second episode and continual episodes on Thursdays and started in on "Picard".
I've got 10 days off, have actually silenced my phones and am going to try to relax after this nightmare year.
I actually had off yesterday afternoon but like today, I keep getting calls.
No rest for the wicked.

I know you didn't ask, but some of my favorite binge shows the last couple of years:
Man in the High Castle
Last Man on Earth (Tandy is insufferable...)
The Expanse
Sneaky Pete
Bosch
And I hear you on shutting the door on this f'n year. I tried to take vacation even for the little one being born and spent the same amount of time on calls and MSTeams meetings. Hope you can relax, take 'er easy!

Loved Man in the High Castle.
I liked Bordertown too, and I don't know why?
Maybe for the same reason I liked Dark, and Fortitude.
I guess I like the mystery, quirky stuff.

I don't know why I can't get into the Madalorian. I mean baby Yoda is cute, but it just doesn't grab me.

I had to look it up. Grogu is Corsican word for yellow.
He is too cute for a name that means "yellow".

I snatched all my phone lines out of the wall, and hung a sign at the gate that says "COVID-19 QUARANTINE" with a skull and crossed bones on it.
No one had bothered me since.
I can binge watch anything I like without disturbance now.
And the last half of the last season of "Vikings" is coming soon, I hear...
I don't know what a "Mandalorian" is. Is that one of those colorful Buddhist designs, or is it a South African rebel leader?

I will be bingeing the Mandolorian for sure. Have like 22 days off. Been playing in the garage. Modified the sliding miter saw. Wall-mounted a tv in there. Painted the living room and hallway. Will be installing flooring. And I finally have the CNC machined built tonight. Going to put a program for GRBL on the PC along with a Vectric program tomorrow. Fun times.

A CNC machine? I might have some work for you if BidenHarris makes it into office!

I am a rookie at this. I do have the concept of how they work. I play with machines at work that works kind of the same way. I am doing CNC for retirement in 7 years. Would like to get proficient at it and make some money outside of retirement. But I plan on filming something I make and sharing it here.

I wish i could binge watch. I really do. But a movie is way too long for my miserable attention span, and an episode of TV show has fine length, but then i should watch the whole season.... However, just bought a playstation 4. Playstation 5 was just released, and there was a price drop regarding 4 and i could FINALLY afford it. Now my life is inside that black little machine.
However, i really loved these: Good omens. Witcher.They are so different that i can't say which one i liked more, but they were REALLY great!

You made me feel guilty.
Went back to where I left off. I had only seen one episode of Season 2. Just started episode 5.
Addendum:
Finished.
Grogu is just too adorable.
