Weird? Pretty much.

Yes, please do let me know. That would be great. There will also be no spoilers possible, because I also already know the history. ;)
Today I invited myself for breakfast at my parents'. I brought the bread and Brezen. Also my mother had some clothes from a friend of hers for me. I got first choice. I took two blouses which don't have to be ironed. One black and one light brown with coffee beans on it.
I visited them, because I am a nice mom ;D and drive Mini to school this week, because she is still a bit exhausted from coughing and it is wet and cold in the mornings. But only this week. Next week she'll have to take her bike again. It's not far. Only 3 km. And my parents live near the school.
Micro is at school today for the first time since she had covid. She was so excited in the morning.
I'm still at home for the rest of the week, because I have to get rid of as many overtime hours as possible, because I'm changing departments next week.
I am excited, too. And I'm looking forward to the new work.
Dina:
Apparently there are 6 episodes, and according to the summary I do not think they cover much time after the wedding, so I bet there are more seasons planned. J have not seen any of it yet and I am not sure about the country of origin of the show. I do not know the actors. I'll report any more news when I have it :)
That is fair about mini and I am glad Micro is excited to be back to your school. You are a good mom and a good daughter too. Enjoy your clothes!
And enjoy your home time! I hope your new job makes you happier than the last one ((((((((((Regen))))))))))

We are watching the first episode of Da Vinci's demons.
Dina:
Well, I watched the first episode. I was not too impressed. I mean, I do not hate it, I will keep watching, and I enjoy some moments. But I was not delighted. And the very beginning was very sad, with an animal death, which I felt it was a weird narrative choice as the first impression. The acting feels a little unnatural, but perhaps that is the "German style". My main problem is that the show seems undecided between the romantic fairy tail and an edgy version, with, for example, some sexual kinks moments. I do not think those add much to the story. Also, it seems to want to create a stupid suspense, like "are they going to kill the emperor?", as if he was not an historical figure. As if the public was not aware that he was the long-lived Austrian emperor.
Da Vinci Demons. Oh. I watched all of it. Do you want my opinion?
Regenbogen:
Thank you. I read it was a bit controversial in some ways. For example the emperor speaking with a Berlin dialect, which is so wrong, but could be seen as freedom of art, if one wants to. I think I will try it once whenever it is availlable to me.
We are watching the third episode Da Vinci now. I think one can't expect historical accuracy, but imo it is interesting to watch so far.
Please feel free to tell your opinion ;)
