Rick Dalton, R.I.P.

Seriously, I don’t want to overanalyze this and Quentin Tarantino has certainly earned his right to do whatever he wants but what does it say about our world that people online were more upset over the death of a fictional alcoholic than they were over …. well, anything going on in the real world.  I mean, I was pretty upset about it myself.  Is Cliff still alive?  I guess he would be close to a 100 by now.

This has been a long week.  Not only did I have to put up with two days straight of people coming out to the house to repair things but there’s also currently a road crew working on my street.  They started their work on Thursday and apparently, they’re going to be here for about a month.  It’s stressful.  Now, when I leave in the morning and come back in the afternoon, I have to take a series of detours just to reach my own house.  I’m going to have the worst headaches until they all go away.

Happy Easter, everyone!

No, I didn’t watch a lot of movies this week.  And I certainly didn’t write a lot of reviews.  What I did do was spend this week with my sisters, my cousins, my aunts, my uncles, and my extended family and I’m glad I did.  This was a good week for getting some rest and catching my breath.  Sometimes, the world moves so quickly that you really can forget to slow down and pay attention to what really matters.

Speaking of things moving quickly, it seems like we went through an entire year’s worth of a news cycle in just seven days.  Again, I’m glad that I was with family this week.  I feel sorry for the people who were trying to keep up with everything because I assume most of them must be feeling thoroughly overwhelmed by now.  I’m not telling anyone how to vote or how to live their lives or anything like that.  I’m just someone who likes to write about movies and television shows.  But I will say that, to me, it seems like this constant drama is not healthy for the stability of the nation or the mental health of many of its citizens.  Don’t be afraid to turn off your favorite news station.  Don’t feel as if you have to check social media every hour.  Make sure you have something to which you can hold on if you find yourself slipping.  A lot of people have fallen down the rabbits holes of anger and paranoia and they’ve never returned.  I wouldn’t want that to happen to anyone reading this paragraph.

Anyway, here’s what I watched and listened to this week!
