Jun. 13th, 2024 09:57 amDespite him finally getting back to a normal sleep schedule, M complained of being really tired yesterday, and was asleep when I got home. So, guess who has messed up his sleep schedule again.
Made a tri-tip beef roast for dinner that must have been at least 40% fat. Every slice required surgery to get to the meat itself. It made me a bit sick to my stomach, to the point where I was just forcing myself to finish eating so I'd just no longer be hungry and wouldn't have to look at the meat anymore. Blech. M seemed to enjoy it, though. What is it with dudes liking fatty meat?
I'll happily let him have the leftovers for dinner, I will pick up some grocery store sushi.
The baby had a long night again. I was so exhausted, felt bad after eating the beef roast, and she just wouldn't go to sleep. She kept rolling onto her belly to find her pacifier and then getting mad that she wasn't on her back anymore. Over and over and over. I was so frustrated, and it was an hour past my own bedtime, never mind hers, so I just forced her on M and retreated back to the bedroom to cry in frustration. Bad night all around.
Finished a good miniseries on Netflix, called Bodkin. A disgraced journalist is teamed up with a true crime podcaster to get her out of town while she's being investigated after her informant dies. They go to a small town in Ireland, Bodkin, to do a podcast about three people who went missing on Samhain 20 years ago. It sounds like a very serious premise, but it's very light and funny without being overtly silly.
Started another new series, Fool Me Once. The description said something like "most watched new crime thriller in over 90s countries", which got me curious enough to watch it. It's...fine. The main character is a woman, but I can't help but wonder if the character was originally a man? She's absolutely written to act/talk/think like a man. She also does really, really stupid things sometimes. Like...tailing a car while she's flying a helicopter and just...staying right over that car the entire time it's driving alone in the country? Like, you're being super obvious, my dude, what are you doing? And at the very beginning she sees her dead husband on her nanny cam, confronts the nanny, and when the very upset and suspicious nanny asks for a glass of water, instead of telling her to get it herself, she turns her back on the nanny, who steals the SD card out of the laptop, pepper sprays MC in the face, and then runs off. Like...MY DUDE. And of course she didn't do anything smart like backup the video file, or upload it to the cloud, or anything that would make sense.
Anyway, I'm going to finish it to see how the mystery wraps up, but I can't say I actually recommend it. The main character does too many frustratingly stupid things.
