10.21.22 – Ein is the Goodest of Boys

I was sort of busy at work. I mean I had to update all of the training modules as well as the training and competency templates for each module. My team has seven modules in total. No joke. The deadline is next week but I want it off my plate since next week will be a nightmare.

You know what? It’s been raining the whole day! Thank goodness. This is the weather that I signed up for when I moved to the PNW. Also, air quality is still pretty bad but not definitely better than the last few days. The rain was definitely welcomed. A few people were complaining since they don’t like the gloom and the rain, and all I can say to that is, then freaking move to somewhere dry and hot.

I read a few chapters of Darling Girl yesterday. Oh boy, you know that thing about the book that I was uncomfortable with? The one that I was wondering how the author will justify. Yeah, well, the author tried. And I was not happy about it. It was so vague. “He looks older than how he was described”, yeah as if that would satisfy me. However, a new character got introduced. A PI named Christopher Cooke, with a hook for a right hand. And oh boy, his physical appearance was not emphasized but the description was enough for me to swoon…just a little bit. Yeah, we shall see though if this will turn into a full-on book crush.

My hun has a double shift today, so I ended up watching Cowboy Bebop with Chris. And yes, we finally finished it. And oh boy, I did enjoy that show. My favorite character? I think it’s cliche but I really did like Spike. He is a very flawed character. Fighting the demons of his past and pinning over a woman for years. Ed was definitely enjoyable. I feel like she’s such a random character but still makes sense. And Ein is definitely in his own category. He is the goodest of boys. Especially when he hacked the game on that episode where they were looking for this cult leader who killed his members. 

We also watched one episode of the live-action adaptation of Cowboy Bebop. I know this adaption gathered some mixed reviews. But that really is what I know about it. I don’t tend to listen to a lot of reviews just because of the fact that enjoyment of a media is subjective. For the first episode though, I think it’s pretty solid. We’ll see.
