Stede and Ed?

mirabileHas anyone else fallen in love with Our Flag Means Death? I binge watched it over two days and now I can't wait for the next season -- but will there be another season? It's so silly and yet so moving. Oh Stede, oh Ed.
Friday the roofing company brought the supplies over. I was fretting where they were going to store them; well, no worries: on the roof!
There's a lot of stuff up there. The people were really nice and knew not to drive on the driveway because such a heavy truck could crush the pavers, so they had a crane to swing the supplies up there. Plus they left sheets of plywood to put on the pavers when they bring the dumpster on Monday.
So I feel a teensy bit better.
Also, aren't the clouds in that photo weird? I don't remember them looking like that when I took the photo; maybe it's an artifact of my phone's camera?
I was up and on the stationary bike at 7 this morning, with Kayleigh Cohen's livestream Youtube. I really sweat bullets with her videos and it's fun that once a week she has a livestream. Of course, it isn't like a Zoom; these are one-way only, but people "chat" and their words appear on the screen so she responds to them. How anyone types and bicycles at the same time, I can't imagine. But I guess that means it isn't entirely one-way.
My sister's birthday gifts for me arrived! Early, of course, because the mail has been so weird the last couple of years we've started malling gifts and cards ridiculously early. On Thursday, a box from Pike's Peak Market arrived with Dungeness crab! We ate that for Thursday's lunch and oh my god, so sweet and delicious. Then on Friday, another box arrived that she and her wife had packed. Inside were six cans of macadamia nuts in different flavors: coconut, Kona coffee, pineapple, even birthday cake! Which actually tastes a lot like cake. There are also a few wrapped packages and a card which I'm saving for my actual birthday.
Okay, I'm going to go google "Stede" and see what comes up. Oh, I hope the show is renewed! How something can be so goofy and profound at the same time -- well, I guess that's Taika for you.

I wish my roofers had been as considerate. One of their heavily-laden trucks cracked my asphalt driveway so badly, I'll be replacing it as soon as $$ is available for it. They did take $200 off the roofing bill, which while minimal at best, at least was something. *sigh*
