Watching… True Detective. I’ve been pretty disappointed in summer TV this year. I don’t watch a lot during the summer, but I do like to indulge in a couple of good shows. I’ve heard good things about True Detective so I decided to sign up and use the free trial of HBO Now offered through Apple. I have a month to watch True Detective and a few documentaries that I want to watch (before I have to begin paying).
Reading… Better Than Before. I had a birthday last week that had me considering the things that I want to accomplish before the next (big) one. I love Gretchen Rubin’s podcast, so I decided that her book on habits might help me achieve these accomplishments. It’s an interesting read if you are looking for ways to add or change your habits.
Using… Pilot Parallel Pen. One of the things I want to begin doing regularly is lettering work. I am working on a “lettering graduate” as well as a “design graduate” program a la Chris Guillebeau. One of my areas of study has been this Pilot Parallel Pen Class on Skillshare.
Drinking… Wild Coffee. I have given up a lot of foods over the last few months. I managed to give up my great love, cheese, but was resistant to also cutting out my other great love, coffee. With the approval of the dietician, I’m going to continue with my one (or less) cup a day habit. I have been looking into “healthier” alternatives. Most of my research led me to Bulletproof Coffee. Wild Coffee came up as a less expensive alternative, so I decided to give it a try. I really like it.
Visiting… Edmond Dog Park. Charlotte and I took our first trip to the dog park over the weekend. It was a fun experience. I knew that of all of my dogs, she would be the most likely to behave herself. She did not disappoint. I was a little surprised that she didn’t stick by my side. She was all over the park, greeting everybody there – especially the people. We did not make it back to the pond. Maybe next time I’ll bring along a towel and she can try it out.
