Tired
I don’t think I have recovered from all of the driving last week. Somehow I feel like I am not terribly tired but at the same time I am terribly exhausted. I don’t get it. I just want to nap, I think.
Well, I want to nap but I also want to put a roll of film through my new camera so that I can find out if it works or not. Functionally I think it is working fine. The question is whether or not it leaks light. I won’t know that until I get a roll of film developed.
I have a doctors appointment tomorrow morning (my annual post-gastric bypass check in with my surgeon) and I was thinking of taking a quick stop along the Merrimack River in Lowell, MA on the way home. I checked the weather though… rain. Shit. I guess I’ll take the camera with me when I go on the off chance I get lucky. We’ll see. If not I might be able to take it for a walk through the bird sanctuary in Methuen on Saturday. We’ll see.
In other news, the new Star Wars movie comes out in just under two weeks. Friday May 22nd sees the release of The Mandalorian and Grogu. I would like to see it opening night, but as long as I get to it on opening weekend I will be happy. I asked my wife and my step daughter if they want to go. I hope so. I don’t like going to the movies alone, but I will. I could always drive up to Burlington, VT again (see previous posts for recaps of the million and a half drives to Burlington I’ve taken in the past 2+ weeks) and see it with my step son, assuming he’s interested. He might not be. I don’t know. My family isn’t quite as in love with Star Wars as I’ve been since 1977. In love is the wrong phrase… clinically obsessed is probably more accurate.
Okay, back to work with you, Sir. This is the way.
