Just when I give up...

[susandennis]

I was done with my errands and the housecleaner wasn't done. So I went to the pet food shop. I ran into two guys who were also trying to convince their cats to move from dry to wet food. One actually has done it. So we compared notes and I got inspired again.

When I got home, Biggie hopped up to the counter and I put a tablespoon+ of the food I got into his little bowl and he dove in! And finished it off. So I put in the rest. And he finished it off, too! The whole pouch. So we'll keep on the program. Wild.

And my house is clean. It's like a reset. Lovely.

The Mariner game was a good one, except they lost.

I just realized that I've got two episodes of The Good Fight I haven't seen yet. Goodie!

I liked Good Fight in the early stages, but I had to give up on it when it became almost exclusively political. All the stuff they did designed to dig a hole in Trump's presidency felt like liberal fanfic and because it's what I wanted but knew wasn't going to happen it was just too painful to watch. I had another shot at the new series but found that it's just as political and politics are still too painful esp with Repubs passing so many laws trying to stop Dems from voting, the Dems doing little about it, and 2022 just around the corner. (The relief didn't last long!) It's a shame as it was great supporting a show with so many great women and so many great Black actors, but ouch.

The series pilot as originally recorded began with Diane celebrating President Hillary Clinton's inauguration, since her victory seemed all but certain, and they had to scramble to re-shoot that first episode. Politics had been baked into the series from the beginning, and they really had to shift how they approached it as a result of Trump's victory. I can only imagine what the series would've been like as originally devised!

Interesting! Their shock at what happened certainly never stopped reverberating - as in real life:).

It hadn't registered that "The Good Fight" started up again, so thank you! It looks like I've got six episodes to watch.
