an overlap of current interests...
Airplane tomorrow, so I ought to be packing, but a cat is asleep in my lap and I am loath to disturb him.
I finished 3.4 of The Good Place last night and am continuing to enjoy it, although I think I see where this season is going and it is less of what I am interested in -- but the show keeps surprising me and I will certainly keep going.
Meanwhile I was reminded by![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
skygiants post on The Six that I had been meaning to read Maxwell Anderson's play Anne of the Thousand Days -- I am very fond of the wives of Henry VIII and have many strong opinions upon them, and the ebook was available from the library, so why not?

Oh really, Sir Thomas?

Still, men do seem to get what they deserve—in a rough way—over a long period. [...] Well, it’s my guess. There’s no proving it. Nobody’s ever made up the accounts. Think of the accounting system they’d have to have in heaven to reckon our follies and sins and good deeds, and decide what we should get. Think of the decisions they’d have to make—and revise. And reverse. Think of the good deeds that turned out badly—and of the murders that turned out to be a good thing.
Oh really, Sir Thomas?
