I’m outside right now watching Blues Brothers (definitely in my top 5 movies) being projected onto the side of the beach house. Fireworks were set off earlier, lanterns let go into the sky, and now… a meteor shower is happening right above us. It’s a particularly awesome OP night.

We paddle boarded, tossed a football, and read books on the beach all day. I read the entire Harry Potter and the Cursed Child play. I’m not exactly sure how I feel about it yet, but it wasn’t great. I wish JK Rowling had written it. It just didn’t have the right style. The story itself was predictable but still entertaining.

I’ve started a new book called Waiting for the Weekend. It’s all about the history of the weekend and the art of free time. How should we spend our precious weekend time, and how to power through the work week but still find meaning and enjoyment out of it. This is something I’ve been having difficulty grasping, so I’m really looking forward to what this book will teach me.

Another shooting star just zipped by. Happy as can be right now :)
