Ok, I’m pretty well set up in the new place now. Ideally I’ll be more consistent with all this now. The employment situation is just about resolved so, I can stop losing money and maybe start bringing in some soon. All-in-all, things are coming together. I even have some of the studio put together. The video equipment for the most part is configured and ready to go. I need to finish connecting the mixing board and spacing out the cabling for mics so I can see how everything is going to hang.
Here’s some less-than-timely good news. I caught a post on reddit the other day that mentioned the complete series Battlestar Galactica(Reboot) was on sale on AppleTV for $24.99. It took me a minute to find the link to get me into the right screen for that price point but I got it. I’ve watching that lately. Somewhat fitting given the current circumstance our world is in right now. I just watched the episode where they’re holding a tribunal, a legal proceeding investigating an attack on board Galactica. I’ve always had a problem with Commander Adama’s behavior in this instance. While being questioned Cmnd. Adama doesn’t like where the questions went and he effectively walks out of the room. I am of course, comparing this behavior to American constitutional law and basic perception. He’s scoffing at the law, first of all. That’s more perception but as a military leader, even Admiral of the Fleet, he would have no such ‘privilege’ to disregard the authority of the proceeding nor would his testimony have jeopardized security as we view the circumstance at that point in time. He’s effectively demonstrating his belief that his military is above the law. I suppose it’s too bad that we don’t have centuries worth of evidence in our human history showing exactly why this is terrible. In any case, a fantastic series, executed damn near perfectly.
On the other hand there is of course the last block of episodes of Andor. I haven’t watched them yet, probably later tonight. I’m thinking I may finally make my pilgrimage to my old In-N-Out tonight. There’s a particular location that has always held a special place in my heart. It’s the In-N-Out Burger that I always went to with my friends when we celebrated, were just hanging out, hell just had nothing to do. My dad and I would stop there and grab milkshakes on our way home from his choir practices. When my “mother” would refuse to feed me, I would take five dollars out of her purse and walk the two miles of Van Nuys Blvd. in the middle of the night to feed myself. I imagine it’ll be easier to refrain from breaking down weeping since I can listen to podcasts on that walk now. I should probably put on some pants soon so I can go and get something to eat. Say, it’s even cool and dark enough right now that I might even be able to wear my jacket without sweltering. See you around.
