Weird? Pretty much.
Dina:
Sorry about the double post.
I finished "The Empress". As far as I can tell, most of the argument is an invention. That said, I liked all the episodes better than the first one, and I was interested in what was happening, even knowing how history would go.
I am wondering why they decided to totally ignore one of the Emperor's brother. It is as if Karl Ludwig never existed. Also, there are some inconsistencies in the writing. Overall, I do not regret having seen it, it was nice to dream a little with that life.

@Dina
Thank you for sharing. Sounds interesting.
I have started in the other lab, but same hospital, and it is great. I feel very welcome there.
Dina:
Oh, I am so happy to hear that! They are lucky to have you and I hope they know it.
I watched "Werewolf by night". It is a Marvel movie from TV, it is less than an hour long, mostly in black and white with the looks of the Universal film monsters. It was sheer fun.
Fcrate:
Hello everyone, I hope you're doing well. Regen :are you and your family fully recovered?
Dina: All good on your end?
I apologize for the long absence. I finally made the decision and put down the dog. Was a little hard, since I liked him a lot, but I managed to ease his suffering. Right after that, we had an unseasonal heat wave for 9 days, with temp reaching as high as 42 at morning and 28 at night, the result of which was that my oldest cow, Heidi, went into premature labor. I usually make sure my cows avoid such heat in the last 6 weeks of their pregnancy by scheduling births for the beginning of July at max, or better yet, middle to end of October. We got hit by the wave while Heidi was 1 month from her scheduled birth, and the heat stress was too much. The little calf should've been 35-42 kg at the regular birth date, but in this case, she was only 17 kg. She proceeded to lose another 2 kg because she was sickly, and her first 3 days were in the end of the heatwave. After 10 very difficult days of bottle feeding, medication, saline IV, showers every hour to lower her body temp when she got too hot and raising her temp when she went into shock, she finally pulled through. Which was a pleasant surprise; as I didn't expect her to live. Yesterday was the first day that she fully fed from her mother. Today she was playing with my dogs, chasing each other (she's still limping a bit from all the injections, and falls on her butt whenever she tries to move backwards, which looks very cute :D). She's actually still smaller than the dogs. I celebrated today with a BBQ. :D
I decided to call her Pyra ^^
Dina:
Hi Fcrate! All is good for me! I had a long weekend (they move the date of the Day off for the October 12 (when Columbus arrived to America, or to the Americas as people in USA says) to Monday. And i had home office today, so it was good. Tomorrow I will be back at my job, but it is nice to have a short week.
I am sorry you had to do that for the poor dog, but at least it is over now. And I am sure he felt cared for and loved, which is very important for dogs. On a related note, I saw a very adult movie, League of Super Pets, and the puppies were so cute...There are flashbacks, and the backstory of Ace, one of the dogs, melted my heart
But good news about your little cow! She is a fighter clearly, I would love to pet her :)
Today Angela Lansbury died. I felt very sad (even when she was a very old woman) because i always enjoyed her work. I saw old movies like "the court Jester" and my beloved "Bedknobs and broomsticks". And I was a fan of "Murder, she wrote". I hope she rests in peace.
