Well, the Simon Parkes update from yesterday did not cause me to make any additional enormous changes to my life. Yay.
He did say that he was tired of everyone just not telling the truth (meaning other truthers, but also White Hats and all the optics….)
And I have to say, heartily, that I concur!! I am so ready for the lies, the optics and the subterfuge to be over.
But in the meantime…
I can’t help but notice the dozens and dozens of happy honeymoon photos from Phil & Keri in Italy, so I’m thinking there is not much to worry about right now. And so on we go!
Quickly to the topic of my new TV!
I could not believe how easy it was to set up. In under 5 minutes, it had even recognized my firestick and set all that up, too. I was sort of flabbergasted by how quick it was. It sort of did it in spite of me, sitting there.
However, setting up Cue Streaming on the TV is not going so well. It works like a charm on the laptop — enough for me to see that there is simply way more stuff than I would ever want to watch in a lifetime, let alone in a day or a week or a month. So I don’t know if I will keep the service or not. I really do not like TV, but I’ll wait and see what I think once I actually get the streaming to work down there in the kitchen.
I’m totally 100% happy with just having Amazon Prime, so we’ll see. I’ll keep you posted.
I’m still on a little hiatus from rewrites on “The Guide to Being Fabulous” because Sandra just finished a quick film shoot up in Toronto and wants a break. And once again, I concur!
But even though I would like to take this little break-time to work on some writing of my own, I also have a ton of stuff to keep on top of regarding the James Tabor research group.
I’m halfway through re-reading The Jesus Discovery (which is just fascinating, gang. Wow. Even the second time around.) But I still have some papers to read before the next zoom meeting, too —
One is “The Geochemistry of Intrusive Sediment Sampled from the 1st Century CE Inscribed Ossuaries of James and the Talpiot Tomb, Jerusalem” — 22 pages.
Another is “The Talpiot ‘Jesus’ Tomb: A Historical Analysis” — 28 pages.
The third is 15 pages of notes on “Corpus Inscriptionum Iudaeae/Palestinae, Volume I: Jerusalem. Part 1:1-704 (Berlin: De Gruyter, 2010)”.
And between now and the next zoom meeting is, of course, Father’s Day, which means I’ll be doing a lot of driving again and spending some time being exhausted on several levels.
Plus, I have that pesky part-time job to squeeze in there, too. But for now, it’s only 3 evenings a week.
So we’ll see, gang. It just gets stressful, finding enough time and brain-space for all this stuff (and people) I love!
All right. That’s kind of it. I want to get started here before I look at the clock and see that I suddenly have to dash off to work… (that happens a lot).
Enjoy your weekend! I likely won’t be posting tomorrow. We’ll see.
Thanks for visiting.
I love you guys. See ya!

Yes, I’m on a serious Ultra Lounge kick these days! I have so many of their CDs from the 90s (back when I also had many cocktails and smoked many wonderful Chesterfield unfiltered cigarettes!). Here’s one of my all-time favorites —
From Ultra Lounge: Bottoms Up!, a double-header: “Big Noise from Winnetka/Midnight Swim” by Al Caiola. Play it loud and just go on and try to have a bad day!! Or night! Okay. See ya!
