Trying to do my Hungarian homework.

It's a fascinating language, and while it's not easy, Czech was definitely harder (no kidding!). I'm enjoying it and I want to continue.

But it's a lovely day out there, I saw a goldfinch earlier, and can I concentrate?! 🤦‍♀️

Take the wrong lesson from a movie:

La La Land: Artists, musicians, actors – work hard and all your dreams will come true!

Still watching The Pitt.

Season 2 features a chap who is rationing his insulin, and not testing his blood glucose because he can't afford the insulin or the testing strips.

His insurance came from his employer, and he lost his job.

It is a ridiculous system you folks have in the US. Sorry, folks.

Robby is tired, cynical, clearly burned out to a crisp. The character arc from the optimistic young chap in ER to this character is essentially THE journey of a lot of people his age working in healthcare.

I see you, brother. I see you.

She's okay. Sad. Glad funeral was fitting. A weight lifted. Some guilt. Also relief. Thinking about herself for first time in ages. A new chapter in life. Thanks for asking Jen. X

Here’s a lovely old (and now sadly defunct) postbox, which is situated in the limestone wall of a 170-year-old primary school in my neighbourhood in #Dublin. Did you know that all of the postboxes in Ireland are original UK ones, with their red colour covered over with green paint? #PostboxSaturday
