He is. Their hotel turned out to be a shit hole, but can't win em all I guess.
Looking it over, it seems like they bombarded their online reviews with fakes the last few weeks before the season, putting positive ones at the top and dragging their rating up to a modest three stars. Since the season opened, it's all one and two star reviews.
It's okay though, they're rarely in the room anyway. And live and learn and all of that.
Simon's favorite part of Malta is apparently eating seafood for every single meal. He loves just being able to pick literally any corner restaurant and get very fresh fried shrimp, cod, etc.
I've just been working, binge watching Legion (which is WAY MORE PSYCHEDELIC than I realized) and trying not to drink too much even though I am bored, alone, and unsupervised. (And mostly succeeding. #growth)
Weird thing though: Maltese people seem to eat breakfast LATE, like 10 am or later. So every day they wake up they have to decide if they are going to be hungry for a few hours... or eat McDonald's, which is literally the only breakfast place open before 10.
We finished all of Fleabag last night. If I haven't mentioned before it is a wonderful show. I'm sad that there doesn't seem to be plans for any more seasons.
It's terrific. An exciting spy show but laugh out loud funny, usually as a result of Villanelle, the oddball contract killer. Not as good as Fleabag (how many shows are though?) but very fun. Jodie Comer is a fabulous, singular loon as Villanelle. And Sandra Oh's title character is less brassy but still constantly surprising.
Phoebe Waller-Bridge has one other show, Crashing. Not to be confused with the HBO show about stand-ups. It's a UK show you can find on Netflix about young singles who've signed on as caretakers of a disused hospital in exchange for free rent. Drinking, sex, etc. follow in due course. Doesn't have the depth of her other work, but it's as loopy and funny. Kinda sexy in spots too.
The Kingdom on Netflix is really good. Using medieval Korea as the setting for a zombie story is pretty genius. Season 1 is only 6 episodes.
I have to go back to work tomorrow. I’ve basically spent my summer break being depressed and taking care of my mom. The best thing about the break is sleeping late. School would be much better if it started later.
His music and poetry are extremely important to S______. I had to very gently break the news to her last night. When I did, she didn't ask me how, she just said "It was a suicide". She wept the rest of the night. It was hard.
He was a special ass writer whose music was played constantly in the clubs and homes of Tampa in the 90s.

Did you at least get a nice tan?
I just ordered the new Richard Powers. Maybe he he can help me kickstart my brain.

Boy oh boy, am I happy to be living in a place and time where I have easy access to pain killers!
