Too Much Time On Your Hands
« on: April 14, 2020, 01:14:31 PM »
I have been spending my additional free time watching Travolta movies.

Only rating ones I've watched recently (will update):

1. Face/Off -  Travolta v. Cage in a crazy off
2. Battlefield Earth - Unfortunately, the sequel never got made and there are a lot of loose ends
3. The General's Daughter - Generic 90s thriller
4. Phenomenon - Spoiler: Kyra Sedgwick sexes alien-tumored Travolta to death
5. One of the Look Whos Talking sequels - Kirstie Alley continues her streak of being the best actress in Hollywood.  Travolta seemingly gets promoted from taxi driver to pilot.  The babies talk to eachother without moving their mouths.  They should put peanut butter on their mouths but maybe they were allergic?

I was going to start something like this for the ultra nerdy crap I've been doing lately.

#1 -  watching a dude play civ 6 on YouTube. I'm hooked, each game is like usually around twelve 45 minute episodes, I've probably watched like 6 games in the last two weeks. Just finished up an epic 20 episode game with Alexander of Macedonia, teetering on the edge of defeat the whole time. It was wild.

I've been playing a lot of Golden Tee at home. I've become something of a master, at least on the home version.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

I did some Civ6 but still suck.  I may need to watch some videos

Yeah, I've always played very casually on a low difficulty setting, it's not a game I play for a challenge.

1. I made a 9 hole par 3 golf course on the farm.

2. I have not played poker seriously in about 15 years but started playing online again. Got killed at first figuring it out again but slowly working my way back to even. I'll probably get bored with it before I get back to even.

3. Rewatched all 5 seasons of The Wire for the 3rd time.

I'm not sure how your job's been effected but between kids and what I imagine is a super busy wife, this doesn't surprise me.

1. cooking new to me recipes: french onion soup, shakshuka, sweet potato tacos. so far all delicious!
2. fb marketplace - have sold some bikes and lenses i don't use anymore, picked up a super nice roof rack thing
3. handymanning - currently fixing that annoying squeak in the dryer (it was the cotton rocksucking rear drum bearing, but i'm gonna go ahead and replace the belt and the bearing slides while i'm at it)

yeah we definitely used to split up cooking and cleaning differently. I pretty much do all of it now.
