Today I am grateful for:
- Pho. It’s been a long time since I’ve ordered from our local Vietnamese place and damn have I missed it. Pho isn’t exactly a summer dish for me but the weather has turned grayer and cooler and the time for rich soup and broths.
- My desk. Just since cleaning up the space yesterday I’m already feeling eager to return to the chair and get to work. While my wife gave in to jet lag I took some time to transcribe a few notes and start a list of upcoming post ideas. It wasn’t much, but it was a start and damn it felt good!
- Lovecraft Country on HBO. This show never fails to disappoint in plot, historical context, visuals, and even soundtrack. I don’t know what I’m going to do when—three Sundays from now—the show comes to an end. My Sundays will simply never be the same.
