Was thinking about heading to Camp Crystal Lake. Any reason I shouldn't go? 😉 🤪

#FridayThe13th

Two decades later and I am still listening to these soundtracks by Bear McCreary on a regular basis. A few of my favorites from Battlestar Galactica are Something Dark is Coming from season 2, Kara's Coordinates from season 4, and the Roslin and Adama theme throughout the whole series. From Caprica, Daniel Captures the Code and Waltz for Zoe. But honestly, I recommend the whole collection.

And these were at the start of his composer career. He has composed a ton of other great scores, but his work for BSG and Caprica will always be my favorite.

Roma needs to win in order to have some hope of directly qualifying for the knock-out stage. Disappointed that our new signings aren't eligible to play for the remainder of the group stage, but hopefully we can find some goals.

Pisilli gets a goal close to the end of the half! Let’s finish this half strong and keep pushing in the second half.

And Pisilli does it again! Great game for him this evening. His two goals have guaranteed the victory and help Roma in the quest for directly qualifying for the knockout round.

Beautiful early evening in Signal Hill. Enjoying it by watching TV outside.

#SignalHillCA #LongBeachCA #LBC

I have been walking Signal Hill for 6 months now, but I only just took this panoramic photo showing a northeast view that includes Long Beach Airport just to the left of center and mountains in the distance. This photo was taken from the aptly name Panorama Dr near the entrance to the Panorama Promenade Trail.

A rainy morning in Long Beach to ring in the new year. Max likes watching the rain.

AS Roma’s struggles have been on full display in both this game at Cagliari and last week vs Napoli. We desperately need a striker who can actually find the back of the net. Let’s hope for a miracle during the winter mercato.

All set up to watch game 6 of the #WorldSeries while handing out candy to trick or treaters.

Happy Halloween! Be safe and have fun! 🎃

Well, it’s 6:42pm PDT and we haven’t had a single trick or treater yet. This is our first Halloween in this neighborhood, so we didn’t know what to expect. There are several parks nearby and we always see a bunch of families at them, but I guess they go somewhere else to trick or treat. Oh well, I guess we will just have to eat all of this candy.

https://snac.beelseal.com/beelseal/p/1761963831.970662

I guess I just needed to be a little more patient. We finally have had a few groups come through!

Well, Roma continue their struggle against top sides. One lapse of defense and an ineffective offense resulted in the loss to Inter today. Basically the story of Roma for last several seasons.

We wasted an excellent opportunity to position ourselves at the top of the table, but honestly, the season is going better than I expected overall.

First real test for Roma. Already not off to a good start. I will reserve my thoughts until after the game.

My dog loves to just sit and look out of the window for hours at people walking by on the sidewalk. I like to say it is his version of watching TV.

Thanks to the Juve Milan draw, Roma end Matchday 6 in second place. But after the international break, we have a tough test against Inter. Let’s see if we can keep the momentum.

I took this shot of Orion last night in Long Beach, CA from my iPhone. I took it by hand, so it was a little shakey and you can see some artifacts from the long exposure due to that. But I think it still turned out pretty good.

I hope everyone is as relaxed and comfortable as these two. Merry Christmas to all who celebrate!

Silly dogs! There are enough dog beds to go around, but they would rather share the same one.

I never grow tired of watching reruns of The Librarian and The Librarians on Electric Now.

I do not recognize this #ASRoma anymore. The decline started in 2017 and no changes (ownership, managerial, and players) have appeared to help. Where do we go from here?

This #ASRoma team has really disappointed me. I don't understand what they are doing.

Finally getting around to watching #ResidentAlien season 3. I wish #SyFy had more original programming like back in the day. But I guess there is just too much competition these days with all the streaming services.

Just finished reading #Monstress Vol 1. I need to get back to my local comic book shop to pick up the other volumes in this series.

Went to my local comic book shop and stumbled across #Monstress, Vol 1. Looks intriguing, so I figured I would give it a go to see if I want to read the whole series.

Also, in case you don't know, #Bookwyrm is the #Fediverse version of Goodreads.

How can you say no to this face?

Brunch at #TheGoldfinchRestaurant was amazing! Awesome service, awesome owners.

When it finally gets cold enough to run the fireplace.

Nothing better than a double shot of espresso while waiting for tiramisu from my favorite Italian restaurant, La Parolaccia.
