WHAT? They don't know the Scarlet Pimpernel? That's one of my favorite books! I must frown at them disapprovingly when I watch this episode π€ I suppose they haven't heard of the Scarlet Pumpernickel either! π€ͺ

I think the most interesting book I read this year was "Sodomy and the pirate tradition : English sea rovers in the seventeenth-century Caribbean" by B.R. Burg. Lots of info about the time period and English culture as well as pirate life. Very neat book! π΄ββ οΈ

Possibly something about stopping to do some mindful breathing or to go outside for a bit? Get some sunshine? I guess that'd be hard for people with night jobs. I need to be reminded to tidy my desk and shelves, so maybe something about doing some light cleaning π€£

I'm a HUGE fan of music from the Baroque era. When people talk about modern music, I stare blankly at them because I don't know who they're talking about. They ask what I listen to and I point out that my faves are from the late 1600s and early 1700s. Arcangelo Corelli is my #1!

One of my nieces calls me every day when she gets off work to chat while she drives home. I just dropped my phone behind the bed and can't get to it 'cause the husband is sleeping on said bed. Luckily I could text her from the computer to let her know that I can't chat today due to my clumsiness lol

Dad. He was into TOS and the movies, and we watched reruns with him on TV. When TNG came out, we'd watch that with him, and it became a family tradition to be into Star Trek. I'm lucky that the husband is a total Trekkie too!
