Sunday night – Binge watching at a distance

Sitting in a hotel room in Kendel Square in Cambridge Mass.  Diane is on the other end of the phone  and we somehow  managed to synchronize our two Netflix sessions so we can watch MadMen together.. We’re on season 7.. the final season..and close to the end. We can’t stop watching it.

 

I love the  show because it brings to life the life my dad lived as an advertising guy on Madison Avenue in the 60’s.. There are so many things I remember from being a little kid. .  .   my dad riding the train into the city every day, going  with my mom to pick up at the train in Dobbs ferry.   the stories I heard much later about the people and the politics from him .. 

I love watching this show. . Tee writing is so amazing.. I love how they  capturesthe 60’s. the business , the city, the politics, . they even feature IBM hardware  !

 

ok…gotta pay attention..

Saturday night – Partly sunny, partly cloudy

Very slow and peaceful day .. went out for a hike around Libbys lookout backwards today with the dogs. We had to where crampons due to the think ice. 

We heard that the weather was going to be partly cloudy then mostly cloudy.. got us wondering what those words meant.. like.. what’s the difference between partly sunny and partly cloudy ?   it it just a pessimist vs an optimists view of the weather ? 

well. here’s the answer according to the national weather service. 

so .. Partly Sunny == Mostly Cloudy

it’s all in how you view the world
