Somewhere Only We Know - Ink & Stardust

It’s been a bit of a whirlwind since we last added to our collection in the Curiosity Cabinet, hasn’t it?
Since then, I’ve talked a lot about managing energy, emotional labor, and working through emotional funks.
So… you’ve probably guessed I’ve been having a hard time keeping up my energy, and that I’ve been struggling with emotional drain and the like. But I’m okay. I’m figuring out what does and doesn’t work for me.
And even if I’ve been a little quiet, I have found some amazing things on my latest travels through the worlds. And many of those were thanks to you!

To each their own cup of tea, but I thoroughly enjoyed this show. From the wit of the dialogue, to the amazing performances from Tony Shalhoub (who is apparently capable of a death stare that would wither an entire harvest of crops), Alex Borstein (whom I almost rarely get to see on screen rather than voicing a character), and Luke Kirby (Slings & Arrows) who had Lenny Bruce’s mannerisms down pat.
This is not to detract from the work of Rachel Brosnahan’s marvelous portrayal of Midge Maisel. Her comedic timing is perfection to say the least. I’ve yet to watch House of Cards (I know, I know), so this was my first time seeing her work. In short, I binged this entire show in the span of about two days (only because sleep had to happen and there was work in the way) and not only look forward to season 2, but am excited to see Brosnahan’s future and past work.

If I’m on foot, there’s a lot of forest around here. Untouched & abandoned fields. Large enough to explore, small enough not to get lost. Especially early winter they’re nice to wander around. pic.twitter.com/Z1J9xXldjJ

Wandering around town this time last year. That “chocolate quarter” is what’s left of the legendary Frys/Cadburys Somerdale factory that was a massive part of this town until US Kraft bought Cadburys and sold it off for development
