Yet another year has gone by. I’m doing well – my investments are appreciating, I’m in line for another military-industrial I.T. job, and all is well.
However this is the season of ambivalent emotion. Ambivalent because I know of the slaughter of 20 million or more of the native inhabitants of this continent. And that what we celebrate as Thanksgiving is just the federally mandated holiday.
And I keep seeing everyone online saying spend the day with your family. I don’t have much family left. Grandparents are gone, parents are gone. I’m it and I don’t have any kids so there’s that.
It’s not my favorite holiday, by far. But I like being alone and here I am in the comfort of my apartment, binge-watching Jessica Jones on Netflix.
(My other choice was enduring another attempt by my Jesus-crazed mother to “win my soul for the Lord”.)
Oh cool – I gotta watch that series. I also binged Agent Carter too – apparently they’re taking the whole Marvel comic book universe and making some kick ass series out of them.
I will get to Carter eventually. I liked Luke Cage a LOT, and Jessica Jones is well made too. Enjoy!
I am thankful to have you for a blogger buddy.
