My dad also had nearly every record produced by Bonnie Raitt. I got a couple of those too. I think he may have had a crush on her, and looking her up from the early 70s tbh don't blame him, she's a hottie who can sing

Tonight's spin! Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Déjà vu. Gift from my dad's collection. He has great taste! #nowspinning #vinyl #record #music

Current read! A Canadian journalist's extensive interviews with the denizens of a venerated luxury Kabul hotel through the decades. Sad to see just how vibrant that city once was #BookSky #CurrentlyReading #Nonfiction #History

The records I got from my dad today! I thought he mainly listened to jazz and classical but he has quite a varied collection #vinyl

I couldn't sleep so I went for a morning swim at the hotel pool. I haven't been swimming in too long, I miss it! The city pool has had limited hours because of roof problems, alas

I'm currently halfway through this slightly intimidating 700-page epic historical fiction about the Māori people of the Kingdom of Tonga and I'm realizing I actually follow a few people from Aotearoa, New Zealand who might like this too!

Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987). A classic!

📺: The Chair Company, S1 E1. I didn't like this at first because Ron is such an unlikable character and I thought it was just a boring office show. But if you hang in there it gets interesting #tvsky #currentlywatching

I was just going to warm up a frozen meal but I decided to cook instead. I just made this one up when I saw we had lots of mushrooms to use up, no idea what I was doing. The mushroom cream sauce broke but I fixed it with more flour and milk. It was delicious

Finally finished editing my roller derby photos. Tomorrow I will upload to the shared drive. Then to figure out my next photo shoot. I had probably taken over a thousand photos just trying to get decent shots! A weird one I liked... #photography

Tonight's spin: Wasteland, Baby! by Hozier. I need some new records, I've listened to almost all of mine! I ordered Nina Simone's Pastel Blues. Looked for Utah by Jamestown Revival but will have to find that in a used shop #vinylsky

📺: Plainclothes (2025)

Hadn't heard of this one before but it looks interesting. I can't believe sodomy was once a crime

Wasn't sure how I felt about this at first because this had so much sex, but it suited the characters because one is a playboy and the other owns a pleasure house. And they are particularly bloodthirsty fae. But then Malachi stays with her during an abortion and gets her what she needs? 🥵 #booksky

#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched I didn't watch enough movies this week... better fix that this weekend #filmsky

Sabrina (1995)

I liked this better than the original in many ways. It was just so completely 90s. I watched it over and over again and can quote large swaths of it. Julia Ormond got treated so unfairly for this role imo. It was a very different film than the Hepburn one

📺: All Her Fault, S1 E1, Pilot. Sarah Snook is absolutely fantastic, I'll watch her in anything #tvsky #currentlywatching
