UWTLabor day weekend. Got a lot in today surprisingly. Started with the ole Fantasy Football draft, which for many Sundays in my life, would have been productive enough. I'm not really as up on my sports as I used to be, but then again, who is? Think I cobbled together a pretty solid team, but until things get going next week, it remains to be seen.
The afternoon was a bit slower/ blurrier. Some snippets of Two and a Half Men were watched, newspapers were thumbed through, naps were had, additional time was wasted.
Then in the post dinner window, things started picking up again in the productivity department. Don't really have any tangible product to show for it but I did get a lot of reading and watching in that will surely be a boon to productivity in the coming days. Finally managed to watch the first episode of the BBC's SHERLOCK, which i've had for more than a month thanks to my boss generously lending me the Blu Ray. It was really really great, and I look forward to watching the second two eps tomorrow as I should probably return it tuesday considering how long i've had it and the fact that friday was my last official day on the job.
Afterwards, despite the fatigue and desire to sleep, managed to finish reading an old script that i'm diving back into (and to which SHERLOCK provided some nice research/ inspiration for my unofficial detective main character who has a bit of a connection to the Sherlock of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's days).
A nice dose of awake Tea, which seams to have hit it's stride effect-wise, in the last hour, kept me going to read the first comic books I've read in a long time (How impressed you must be ladies...). Starting to get my head around adapting on spec, my favorite/ gateway comic from my younger days. Not sure if anyone else would care to see this show quite as much as I would, but at the very least it'll be a fun exercise and hopefully strong sample that delves into gritty detective work/ acrobatic/ crime fighting fun. I read the first half of an after the fact origin arc, that traffics in the fantastic and otherworldly much more so than the character has generally been portrayed.
But enough about me being a huge dork and accepting watching TV and reading comics as a small creative victory on a holiday Sunday night. Looking forward to the actual holiday tomorrow, though in my current unemployed state, ev'ry day is a holiday!
What're your plans for the big day? Hope you have a great one, I know I might. And on that note, time to say goodnight, or good morning, whatever you'd prefer. For me it's the former.
