How are you tonight?

It's good to see you.

I'm out of even premium channel movies at this point. I need something I want to watch, not just watch something because I'm desperate.

Just finished all the episodes of Wallander - the Swedish one, which I think is better than the one with Kenneth Branagh. Come to think of it, that's on Hulu. If you don't mind subtitles check out Occupied, which is a very timely political thriller.

For the titles you've offered me. I will look into them. Thinking about giving up the expensive cable. Netflix is free with T-Mobile but I think money is still coming out for the account I've had for years. When I had DISH I could watch Netflix on my TV and call it up with my remote. Now I have to switch over to my computer to watch.

My first world problems are a bit embarrassing. I am aware.

but give me some good vodka along with something to mix it with and I'll do just fine.

However, you were supposed to transport down earlier in the night for the Stagg Bowl. It was a safe night to wear purple since both teams use it in their color schemes.

and you still haven't learned how to change a fuse in the fuse box? Don't give up your night job!

I hope that you get the transporter fixed soon because Mrs. Glamrock was looking forward to a vacation.

The internal combustion engine is 150 year-old technology. But it shows no signs of fading into history...

...in a mini chocolate bundt cake with peppermint chips mixed in, and cream cheese frosting, chased by ice cold milk.

If there is a Nothing Bundt Cakes franchise anywhere near you, their cakes are absolutely scrumptious.

since 8pm MST.....have quite a wine buzz going by now. Love sipping on wine and reading my ebook mysteries when the neighborhood and the house is so quiet. Red wine my favorite as I read. Hope you have a good wine buzz by now even though it is early in the morning

But yeah, red wine is my favorite for sippin' on a relaxing evening.

The only buzz that's better is champagne...
