it's been a while
Looking at the state of the world . . . I think I'm about to concentrate on my holiday for the next few days, and hope that Amsterdam doesn't shut any of its museums till after I've left. (I'm going to Amsterdam tomorrow, and coming back Saturday, and I have this coming fortnight off work - using up end-of-year leave.)
It feels like one of those situations where you have to be aware of what's going on around you in the world, and at the same time keep a sort of tunnel vision in operation for day-to-day functioning, because if you are too aware of what's going on, you start feeling you should be doing something about it. And that's frankly impossible. (Not for everything. But for a lot of it.)
So anyhow, wash your hands, and try not to cough too much in public.
Doctor Who tonight (end of the current season) was fun: I enjoyed it, I didn't find the Big New Reveal too unreasonable, and really, people/fans have been complaining about the newest changes to canon ever since they started making them. ("What's this about the Doctor 'regenerating' to a new actor? I don't like it, I don't like it at all. Ruined my childhood.")
Must try to get to sleep at a sensible hour tonight. Well, a reasonably sensible hour . . .
