argh, rantycakes

We finally saw CA:CW on Wednesday, and OH and I both enjoyed it. Not being comics fans, we don't have the background knowledge and fannishness. But we really enjoyed the movies, nonetheless, and CA:CW was a valuable addition to the saga (still need to see Ant Man, I guess, and possibly one other we've missed). I'm really looking forward to the Black Panther movie we're promised by 2019. Not before its time, I'd say.

Wednesday evening the Other Human felt unwell and went to bed early. Yesterday it was obvious he was really sick, and he either napped in the recliner or back in bed almost the whole day. He feels better today, but my scalp is achy, all the way down to my brow ridge, my eyes are itchy and gummy and my nose is sore. Uh oh.

Yesterday and today are made more miserable by the arborist crew the neighborhood contracted to trim, fell, and brace trees that menace houses in the high winds we get here. Chainsaws and woodchippers unceasing from 7:30 to 6:30, oy. They started on our street, creeping up the block until they finished the day with the truck-sized woodchipper parked directly in front of my living room windows. Not helping the headache, guys. But then, a blown-down tree on the roof would be pretty bad, too.

We had planned on a matinee of The Jungle Book this afternoon. I think that's going to wait till next week.

In other news, it feels really weird not to be hyperfocused on finishing a Big Bang story, and confabbing (do we still say confabbing?) with an artist. Ah well. Next year.
