I took a couple day breather from reading. I'd like to say I used the time productively, but mostly I played video games, played with Thomas, and watched episodes of The Flash. Playing with Thomas is never a waste of time, of course, but refining the rules for tickle war doesn't tend to feel like getting things done. Oh well, a little down time is a good thing.
The Flash is a surprisingly good show for a piece of unrepentant fluff. Ryan noted that there seems to be a trend of making super heroes younger than their comic book counterparts in these adaptations. I think they are trying to reach a younger audience but it also gives the character more initial potential for growth. Not only are they figuring out how to be super heroes, they are figuring out how to be adults. It makes sense.
The garden is in a weird little maintenance phase. I've got six melon plants coming up, 10 various summer squash plants, a couple dozen bean vines, and a hodgepodge of winter squash planted. Some are even sprouting. My tomato plants are fruiting - heavily- and I'm going to go out and pick my first jalepeno tomorrow. Things are progressing.
