missizzyIt seems things have decided to continue to go wrong even when you'd think they'd leave off for a bit. We've had troubled with the dishwasher for years, but now it's stopped working all together. My sister's too, apparently, which at least means she's willing to go shopping for a new one next weekend. Meanwhile, this has caused my mother to resume her regular role of washing the dishes, though I still need to carry them to the sink and put them away afterwards.
Spent this weekend watching as much of Worlds as I could manage. Love Yuma Kagiyama's free skate, even if you can't really argue with Malinin beating him. But much as I also love Deanna Stellato-Dudek, I can't help but feel like she and Deschamps were home gifted the gold, that Miura & Kihira really should've repeated. My sister and I are probably going to go to Boston for Worlds next year, though likely not to all the events; those tickets cost *way* too much for that.
Also finished The Sea of Monsters. It's been over a decade since I read The Lightning Thief, and somewhere in the meanwhile I've picked up the unfortunate habit of being bothered when a book's prose is clearly aimed at someone younger, but Riordan's world-building continues to be good, and I do now kind of want to read the next one. My sister actually gifted it to me when she brought mom home, along with Candace Carty-William's Queenie, which is now next up.
