Lost weekend

The weekend went by in something of a blur, in no small part because the dog and I are on our lonesome for a while, with my parents on vacation in Italy. I’m taking some time off myself, though hopefully the rest will be more productive days than the past two. I’ve watched a fair amount of television — Community ended on a really high note, making creator Dan Harmon’s unceremonious firing all the more stinging — and the pleasant but unexciting movie Diamond Men. But that’s been about it. Mostly, I’ve just been looking over an antsy dog.
