All of that glorious sunshine and no wind or rain called for a walk.
Listened to Pharrell's Happy about five times then was disappointed to find out that an On Being podcast hadn't downloaded so I listened to Mistaken Identity from the Story Worthy podcast and part of a This American Life podcast, Bad Baby -- scary.
Went to see The 'Fugee last night and I believe that she said something like she's going to kiss the ground when her cast is removed and she's able to put pressure on her foot again.
The 'Fugee and I watched Boy, a really quirky but sweet film. It's a good thing that the movie is visual because there was plenty of dialogue that I couldn't decipher. Boy's director, Taika Waititi, is also the director of the equally quirky Eagle vs. Shark which I also liked.
Any movie or podcast recommendations? I've been watching Hoarders: Buried Alive and finishing up the Long Way Round. Patti just recommended Life, which is on Netflix. Come to think of it, I need a new book to read too. I started reading Dreaming in Hindi but haven't seen it in days.
Went to yoga as well and I keep forgetting how much I like earth salutations. As Cindy would say, earth salutations make you feel so grounded.
I always glean movie and book recommendations from your blog, so of course I went to Netflix to add Eagle vs. Shark to my queue. Searching for it, I also found this: Mega Shark vs. Crocosaurus. It's a coin toss which I will watch first.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I listened to Bad Baby too - the whole thing, in a couple sessions. The first story was SO HORRIFYING. That poor woman. And I'm terrified for her other children. I looked up her blog - didn't want to but felt compelled! I'll say she's a better speaker than writer, but still I'm just awed by what she's going through. There seems to be slim chance for a happy ending. I usually roll my eyes at 'someone else has it worse' moralizing, but sometimes another person's story is a real kick in the butt.
ReplyDeleteLooks like it's going to be Shark Week in the Gingerzingi household...
ReplyDeleteRe: Bad Baby, that story is horrifying. I looked up her blog too and there seems to be no relief in sight for that family.
