Just seen A Real Pain. A good movie. Learned that Kieran Culkin is brilliant at playing himself. Thought he was perfection in Succession and great in A Real Pain but it will be interesting to see if he can do anything else in other roles.

Very curious to see Roberts Eggers’ Nosferatu remake. Mixed reviews but I always enjoy his work, particularly loved The Witch.

Happy to have booked my first yoga class of the year. It will be good to get back on the mat regularly.

I’m enjoying the slow pace of micro.blog. And the lack of likes and follower counts and ‘re-posts’ and all the other insane ‘incentives’ mainstream social media thinks we want and absolutely do not need.

Only just made it in to work this morning. The combination of snow melt and overnight rain has caused widespread flooding. Some roads were only just passable. At least the rain is stopping now which will give the standing water a chance to drain off a bit since most of the snow has now melted too.
So it was the snow which caused problems yesterday and now and tomorrow it will be snow melt plus heavy rain equaling floods. Hey ho…
