Spring Beltane Moon
A gorgeous day. Sun, warm. Daffodils in bloom. Bees buzzing in the orchard. Dogs playing in the woods. Kate’s on her way home. 
Ruthie told Kate she was her favorite grandma. I told her she was my favorite grandma, too. She’s coming back a happy gal.
During the grey cold days of the weekend I did something I’ve not done before. I wrote here sometime ago quitting Comcast cable tv. Too damn expensive and a time suck. In it’s place we have dvds, netflix and hulu. Hulu (and Netflix, too for that matter) has whole TV series from beginning to end. For instance, it has the entire Battlestar Galactica Sci-Fi channel series. And many others.
That means you can do what I did on Saturday and Sunday. I found a new series, Grimm, that tells the story of a descendant of the fairy-tale compiler. Turns out the Grimms can see and hunt all manner of thought-to-be imaginary creatures like the big bad wolf, pied piper and a whole menagerie of others.
So I watched 1-12 of an 18 episode run. That’s the thing I haven’t done before. You can watch TV serials as if they are, in a sense, a video novel with each episode as a chapter. Now I wouldn’t defend this as a way to increase your brain power, might have killed a few gray cells, but it sure was fun. Felt very decadent though.
