Weekly Notes: July 21–27, 2025

A less eventful week this week. I worked and met a friend at Dicks for a nice lunchtime chat on Thursday; my wife stayed home and concentrated on healing. Not a lot to report for this week, really.

📚 Reading

Continuing on my Murderbot binge, I read the first half of The Murderbot Diaries, Vol. 3, then hopped over to read Network Effect, since it takes place between Fugitive Telemetry and System Collapse, the two novellas collected in Vol. 3. I’m almost done with that (will likely finish it tonight), and then back to Vol. 3 to finish it off.

📺 Watching

One of my wife’s recovery binge shows has been The Tudors, which we finished on Saturday, and then followed that up with a double feature of Elizabeth and Elizabeth: The Golden Age. Since we were then in a movie mood but wanted something a bit more modern, we watched Blast from the Past and Clueless for some ’90s comedies.

🎧 Listening

No new albums, but I have been getting some entertaining requests for the Worldcon dance that I’ve had to track down to add to my collection.
