I find myself having a bagel and coffee for breakfast and watching football. At just after 2am.

My wife and daughter had to leave early for a short holiday theyโ€™re taking together so I thought Iโ€™d watch the Womenโ€™s World Cup USA v Vietnam match. Iโ€™ll also be watching England v Haiti later โšฝ๏ธ

Finished reading: Tales From The Loop by Simon Stรฅlenhag ๐Ÿ“š

Curious to see the book after I had enjoyed the Amazon Prime TV series, which does flesh out the impressions of the (art) book into a more narrative experience.
