I think I can, I think I can...
Aug. 25th, 2015 04:47 pmMy last major summer work project should be done a week from now, and that will be nice for enjoying leisure activities again. Like mulling over ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
festivids fandoms. And reading books.
Actually, I have to read Uprooted before Monday because it came in at the library and you only get 7 days for new books that are in demand. After that, I’d like to try some of Patrick O’Brian’s Aubrey/Maturin novels and find out whether they are as lulling as the good fanfic. And am so looking forward to the release of Ancillary Mercy in October, preceded by a reread of the first two in the series. Sometime during the fall, will get around to The Chronicles of Prydain for book club. Did any of you read it when you were younger?
Not taking work home will also mean more time for moving around. Elle n’est pas très athlétique, mais elle essaie.
1. The autumn gym class schedule was posted and it is disappointing. Alas. I will either try some new classes or find alternatives.
2. Such as those tennis Meetups. Although tennis thoughts are on hold on account of I can’t find my racket/racquet.
3. Badminton club also an appealing option.
4. Could try picking up Irish dance again with the hope that it doesn’t tighten up my hips like last time, but that is $.
.
In the meantime, my mom came to visit and we had a nice weekend in western Mass. admiring Impressionist paintings and modern glass sculptures and attending Film Night at Tanglewood with the Boston Pops, ( incl. live scores to Star Trek and Jaws, and violinist Gil Shaham looking like RSL. )
.
It’s tradition to watch at least some Star Trek whenever my mom and I get together. This time she voted for Space Seed. After that, I could only request TheChest Wrath of Khan*, especially since it’s next on the rewatch list with ![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
ignazwisdom. Still so much love and admiration for that film. Notes perhaps to follow.
