Doroga's Cousin:
Oh yeah the actor who plays Logain is fantastic.

Dina:
I've finished the book!
Even when it took me forever to get invested in it, I really liked it! I am going to write in the CS forums soon.

Regenbogen:
Just came back from my violin teacher. He is satisfied now that we have finally finished the book with the Christmas songs.
But he had to play almost blind, because he couldn't find his glasses, lol. He asked if it was normal for old people to forget for example where they have put their glasses, and I said sorry but yes, this kind of knowledge is widespread. ;D
He sometimes is confused, but he has only two students at the moment. His partner and me.


Mini and I have watched the first two episodes of Percy Jackson and we liked it a lot. Most of it was almost like in the book. The new episodes will be out every Wednesday from now on. It looks like they are doing one season for each book, which I think is the best way to go about it. Also the actors will age with each season, which will be a bit like the Harry Potter cast aging with each film, just like in the books.


I have still not yet finished An Inheritance of Magic. It will definitely take me until after Christmas, because the days before there is usually not much time for reading, though I can do a re-listen of the DF while preparing for the holidays. I'm at Death Masks right now.

Today there will be one last pre-Christmas dinner with my husband's computer club, which is every year. They don't do much except this one dinner once a year any more, lol. But the club still exists officially recognised since their youth. It's funny, because I knew some of the members or their wives before.

Dina:
Yes, it is perfectly normal to forget those sorts of things. But do not be sorry, at least for him it is good news that what happens to him is normal, and not a bigger problem.
I am glad you are enjoying Percy Jackson. I may watch it in the long weekend.

I am thinking I may do a quick reread of The Aeronaut Windlass, especially because I was checking some inconsistencies between the two books and I was hooked again. I loved that book.

The dinner with the computer club sounds great. Some  of my best friends are from long ago when we were in a Star Trek fan club  ;D, so I think I understand the situation more or less well.

Hubby and I are going to spend Christmas's Eve alone but on Christmas Day we will go to my cousin's home. The family is a quite sad because yesterday they have to help their doggy to cross the rainbow. I will miss the sweet one myself. I bet there will be tears. But at least they have a cat that (I bet) will suddenly become even more spoiled. Besides that, with the terrible situation, they won't be the happiest Hollidays ever, but I hope being together will be enought to be happy. It will be the first time I met my cousin's son after he came back from Europe (I told you he was in Brno for 3 months+ and he was back mid November) so that is enough to make me smile.

Well, in case I do not "see" you before then, HAPPY HOLLIDAYS FOR EVERYONE!!!!🎄🎅🏽✨

PilgrimDan:
Hello all! I saw "Godzilla Minus One" last night and it's superb, maybe even better than the original 1954 movie, which it very much resembles. Let me just say, for those who have not seen it yet.... one, GO SEE IT! two, this Godzilla is *not* the friendly if grumpy monster we see in the 1970s run. This Godzilla is legit terrifying, and unstoppable and three, it has a real emotional core to it and it *does* hit you hard in the feels. It was strange seeing this after the trailer for "Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire", which is a far more fantasy styled movie with an essentially heroic Godzilla. It just proves Big G is a monster for all seasons, I guess.
