Topic: This and That
This was taken yesterday. I think it's a cute one of Ryan with his daddy.
The weather is so changeable here. I stepped out for a short run, and it was nice and sunny. Twenty-five minutes later, I stepped back inside just ahead of the rain! Of course, it cleared up a little while later, and now it's raining again!
Unfortunately Ryan seems a bit under the weather. He didn't really nap today, and was all kinds of out of sorts. We put him to bed early. We're hoping he'll feel better tomorrow.
I have to admit to a new tv show I really like: Deadwood. I saw the first episode a while back and thought, "Way too awful and violent!" and was not interested in seeing any more. I saw some of the special features, and at least appreciated the high quality of the show.
Some time later, Larry came back from his tdy and started watching the second season. I'm not sure why, but this time it caught my interest. The dialog is amazing. It's gritty, yet theatrical, incredibly crude, yet practically Shakespearian. I consider myself at least somewhat educated and intelligent, and usually at least a couple times per episode I have to say, "Huh???" after a character is done speaking.
The episodes are very well written, the production value of the show is high, the acting is very good, the show strives for historical authenticity, and overall it just sucks you in.
Of course, we're watching season two here, and I think in the States they're on season three. We don't get HBO in jolly ol' England!
