Holiday Wishes


Lovely dinner with family last night. Michaelangelo's is a very nice italian style restaurant on the northwest side of Tucson. They have the best lasagna in town! Of course, that was my entree and I ended the evening with Limoncello cake, my favorite.  Oh, it was for me, a two martini night!  🍸🍸

Spent a quiet Sunday afternoon reading and watching a movie, "Men in Black International" on Starz. Not a bad movie, just not as funny as I hoped it would be. The first movie in this franchise with Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, was hilarious!

I finished watching "Watchmen" on HBO this past week, which is set in an alternative America where white supremacists are on the rampage and Robert Redford is President. For a show about Watchmen, only a few are highlighted in the series. The heroine is Sister Night; baker by day, hooded avenger by night. The show is really quite well written and very thought provoking.

"His Dark Materials" also on HBO, has its final episode tomorrow night. This series I am enjoying very much and will give you my thoughts about it after the finale. 

I just started watching "The Witcher" which so far is very good! If you stream Netflix you should check it out!

As for "V-Wars" (also on Netflix) it was for me, a totally Ian Somerhalder experience. The show's concept is similar to "The Passage", except the book is ten times better. Virus turns people into vampires, doctor who happens to be immune, has to discover a cure. I was not impressed with Ian's role as a doctor in this series. I think he is at his best in a more sexier, dangerous role...doesn't have to be a vampire either. But!!! I will watch season 2 just to see Ian...much like I watch Tom Cruise movies...just to see Tom. πŸ˜†

Christmas feels different this year...it hit me hard when I went to get some stocking stuffers for our cat. I normally pick up gifts for Hannah as well...the thought of having Christmas without her made me fall back into a depressive state of mind. I must admit to being less than enthusiastic the last few weeks about preparing for the holiday. The house is empty and too quiet with her gone. πŸ˜ž

Have a good evening everyone.
