I haven't seen it, but I seriously don't get the appeal.

It has very little to do with Tigers. Let’s just say that.

Oh, I've heard plenty about the actual plot.  I still don't get the appeal.

The story is outrageous. That’s the appeal. Hope this helps you get it now. 

Not every show is for everyone. That's alright. Some will like it, some won't get the appeal. No big deal.

Took the family for a drive last night. Man, it was refreshing. Pretty cool that we came across a guy who skydived. We kept driving and realized he was headed in the same direction. Stopped in the road and watched him land. Kiddos loved it!

Doom? Sure. It’s actually really difficult. I had to switch to the lowest difficulty. Ammo can be hard to find and you’ll just get bombarded with enemies that soak up bullets.

Man, I still have to play the first PS4 Doom. Heard that Eternal has a computer in your guy's headquarters where you can play part or all of Doom and Doom 2 from the olden days. Which got me excited even though I have Doom 2 on my 360. And have played it roughly 1 gazillion times.

Shoot, I'm not saying I probably won't like it when I get around to watching it.  The show's plot definitely sounds bananas.  It just surprised me that so many people tuned in in the first place.

I'll definitely be checking it out at some point.

But it'll likely be a while before that happens. Currently working through Hollow Knight and Horizon Zero Dawn on the PS4. And both of those are totally awesome. And when I'm through those, I think I'll be doing Bloodborne because my experiences with the first two Dark Souls games had told me that FROM Software are gods of making stuff that will keep you occupied indefinitely because difficulty. Which is also a good part of Hollow Knight's appeal.

Lol

I'm currently ripping out a weird old outdoor staircase to our second floor that never gets used and has started to rot pretty badly. It's going to open up our backyard space significantly. Should've done it when we bought the house 3 years ago.

Going to move cupboard crap around. Need to leave one for the kiddo to play with, but moving breakables today the ones with child locks. Plastic Tupperware and some other stuff to the 2 he has access to.

Going to replace an old light fixture later today. We bought two new light fixtures a while ago, and I already replaced the one in our dining room. The one in our bedroom stairwell is a little awkward so I've been putting it off until now. This is a great time for home projects, for sure.

I'm playing Zoom flip cup with friends later, and as a little surprise, I'm dressing up as Carole Baskin. 

Went out small trail hiking to a place with petroglyphs....best weather ever

Hiked at a place here in Birmingham called Miss Rock Preserve. Beautiful wood, sunny and 80s. 

Drove around to get a 30 minute nap out of the 2 year old. Let her play with the neighborhood kids a bit (might be a terrible parent)

Same on the second part. Don’t really care anymore. Whoever came up with this quarantine shit doesn’t have young kids. 

We just went on a 4 mile walk. We found a path we didn't know existed along a creek in the woods not far from our house. Awesome little slice of nature within city limits.

No kidding. We have 2 neighbors with 3 year olds and 1 year olds, and we have a 2 and 6 months. It’s impossible to not let her play with them outside. We don’t go in houses, but in yards we have to or we’d all want to kill ourselves. We don’t let the 6 months near anyone bc she had rsv 6 day stay in December and wash our hand religiously. Also bought 4 giant hand sanitizers then so we good there too. We than have 8pm happy hours with the adults to relax, keeping a good distance away. You just can’t survive with little kids without outside contact.

Our youngest had rsv, iclfan2, when she was about your kid’s age. Nasty serious stuff. We didn’t realize how serious it was until a doctor at the hospital (Akron Children’s) said they were putting her in icu because “we don’t want to lose her”.  She is 25 years old now.

She was only 3 months at the time. Scariest thing I’ve ever been through. They ran every test possible including spinal tap. Was then on “super” oxygen for 5 days. It was crazy. Can’t imagine it with the technology 25 years ago.

Actually, what you describe was pretty much the same as 25 years ago.  So glad you all got through it. Very scary, indeed. 

Weather bad = painting inside that i have been putting off since I bought the place.

Weather good = staining the deck, reskinning the porch, getting dirt next week to redo part of the yard.   Helped neighbors clean up the yard and burn leaves yesterday.

Took cover off the boat and charged the battery so it's ready to roll.  

Getting a lot of projects done so it's worked out well.
