Finished Daredevil

Started off the day getting to work early for a change. Spent the day very tired.

After work I got lucky and got the bus right off the bat. So I didn't have to wait in the cold too long.

Called the FWiB, and we talked as I went through Flushing getting a new Metrocard, and then going to Duane Reed to get some soap. Came home and continued the conversation through Skype. It was very nice.

After that I had dinner, and then started watching Daredevil. Watched two episodes and then it was time for my nightly call to Older Brother. Then while we were talking the Kid called through and I talked to her awhile. Finished talking to everyone, fed the pets, and watched the last episode.

No spoilers, but I was very happy with it, just as the Kid predicted. It is a very good ending, and although I would like it if there's to be a fourth season, this would be a good place just to end it.

Anyway, called the Kid back and we had a nice loooong conversation about it.

And now it;s time for bed.

6. Didn't have to stand long in the cold waiting for buses.

Veteran's Day

The 11th day of the 11th month. I know it's officially being celebrated tomorrow but today is the day. So Oldest Brother and i got together to have lunch and drink a toast to the veterans in our lives.

Started out by Skyping the FWiB while waiting for Oldest Brother. We had a nice conversation. Then Oldest Brother arrived, and we had coffee which was good.

Finally went out to lunch at Buffalo Wild Wings, and drank our toast in Angry Orchard Rose cider. We toasted specifically Dad, Uncle Jack and Grandpa Lloyd, and then generally all the doughboys of WW1 (since this is the centennial of the Armistice). Lunch was good. And we went out to Carvel for dessert. So that lasted me for the rest of the day, no dinner for me!

We came back to my place, and he took a nap and I ordered a beautiful teeshirt on-line. It says "I am not a book worm, I am a book dragon!" with a really nice dragon picture. I hope the actual teeshirt is as nice as the ad!

Anyway, Oldest Brother left for work and I started reading the library book I should have been reading instead of watching Daredevil all week. Two Dark Reigns, the third book in the Three Dark Crowns trilogy.

And now I'm going to go back and read some more.
