§ I had a slow start to the week as I gradually worked to get over my cold. During my downtime I caught up on the last couple of seasons of Stranger Things. Those Duffer brothers sure do know how to write a compelling hour of television.
§ I also started watching How to Get to Heaven from Belfast, a new show by Lisa McGee, the writer behind Derry Girls. Four episodes in, this new series is interesting though fall less comedic than I expected, coming from Derry Girls. It is tonally much closer to Bad Sisters.
§ We finally saw temperatures in the 30s and low 40s. A great relief in the middle of what is surely one of the harshest winters in recent memory. In a dream Monday night that I walked outside and saw daffodils spouting up bright green through the melting snow. When I woke up I remembered that we’re not quite there yet but spring will arrive soon enough I’m sure.
§ By Wednesday I finally started feeling better. Unfortunately, this is exactly the point my wife began feeling sick. Such is life.
§ At work we started a large-scale revamp of an 18 year old exhibit gallery. I’ve advocated for updates to this particular gallery since I started working at my museum almost three years ago so it is particularly exciting to see it all finally start coming along.
As part of this project I made what I think turned out to be some particularly fun signage using laser cut translucent acrylic layered on top of CNC-milled PVC board.
