Oh, Wednesday

[seren_ccd]

Things!

1. Still pretty down in the dumps. I also managed to sprain my bad ankle on Monday directly after my first personal training session at the gym. So. Ow. And flippin' typical. I immediately went to the doctor because I wasn't going to take any chances, but there aren't any breaks and it is feeling better than it was. Just back to being stiff and achy. Argh. I'm really grumpy about it. I'd managed a jog for the first time in 6 months and while I'm not back to square one, I'm definitely set back a little.

2. I miss looking forward to things. I looked forward to talking to him in the evenings. And planning the next time we'd meet up. I know this is temporary and there will be other things to look forward to, but it's hard to find them right now.

3. I have, however, rejigged my narrative. Last week I was saying: 'I'm so sorry that I couldn't be what he wanted.' Now, I'm saying 'I'm sorry that he couldn't be what I wanted.' It's a small change, but it's helping a little.

4. Brooklyn Nine-Nine is an amazing show and is currently seeing me through all this. Any other comedy show recs? I keep eyeing Schitt's Creek, but I'm not sure I want to start at the beginning.

5. I'd really like to do some writing, but have no desire to write about relationships, which is kind of what my current WIPs are based on.

I hope everyone is doing okay! Have a good Wednesday! ♥

It's a small change, but it's helping a little.

It's a BIG change and I hope it does help. <3

If you like Brooklyn Nine-Nine (and it is great), I must suggest The Good Place, which is made by a lot of the same people and is just as good except in some ways even better. :) It's my favorite TV in years.

Archer is fantastically funny (esp. the first few seasons). It's an animated series, but definitely for adults. It's sort of a spy spoof, but the word-play is brilliant.

Some would recommend the Good Place, but I don't find it that funny. It's mildly amusing but I really fail to get why everyone is so enamoured by it.

Hmm you could maybe request specifically non-shippy prompts over at tumblr maybe? Or fill fandom stocking posts before they go live on the 19th?

*hugs again*

The Good Place, by the people who brought you Parks and Rec and Brooklyn Nine-Nine. It's a more philosophical than B-9-9, which let's face it, is all about the jokes. Angie Tribeca is a pop-culture obsessed hoot.

We're watching The Rockford Files in honor of my childhood crush on James Garner. It's a detective show with car chases and silly plots but it's also funny. Comedy is what he did best.

Ow. Hope your ankle feels better soon.

And i approve of the revised narrative; that is much more you-positive. :D

[seren_ccd]

It is! Slowly but surely. :)

[seren_ccd]

I love the Good Place! It's so refreshing and different.

[seren_ccd]

I've been enjoying the Good Place, I have to say. ;) And I've heard good things about Archer, I may give it a go, thank you!

[seren_ccd]

That's true... I might take a look. *hugs*

[seren_ccd]

I'm loving the Good Place, I might try Angie Tribeca. Oh, the Rockford Files! I remember that show!

[seren_ccd]

It's getting better, just achy and stiff. :P

And so do I. I'm trying to be kind to myself and that's helped.

Good! :D

I figured you'd probably know about it if you know about B99, but I had to make sure. :)

My dad loves The Rockford Files. :)
