Friday night thoughts

  It's Friday night and it's raining this is really not much of a surprise sense it's Autumn. I don't know if there's any real causality there but it just seems to me that they're always was a lot of rain on Fridays in the fall growing up. That was okay because we are generally in the house by that point in time getting into the new fall season of television. I really have no idea what people did before this event became such a widespread event in television land but I remember it was huge for me. It seems when I was growing up in the 60s and 70s going from 10 years old to 20 years old that television was really coming into its own. Having major Productions in the fall when you start the new seasons. I guess for a lot of people who did things there's a lot of things like football games, high school and some college that those folks attended. Suppose those were upper middle class by today's standards. We however stayed home and luckily my best friends cross a couple fields stayed home too and we slept at each other's homes on Fridays alternating one week to the next. I believe I've documented this in other places in this blog. I know that I've written something about hamburger night and that has to come up with bacon morning. I can't really talk about one without the other and my friend the cantrells. We just hung out at each other's places for the longest time. The networks still try to have major events on the Autumn nights as the new seasons begin but they've lost their Edge probably due to so many of the forms of entertainment electronically and otherwise. With the streaming Networks they can have a new season every week if they want there's really no more waiting around like in the old days. Also pretty interesting is the fact that many of the seasons are short seasons only four or five weeks long or episodes. This was kind of weird at first for me anyway I thought it was a little frustrating because I've gone past doing series because it just takes too long to go through most of the time. However the shortened series is a lot easier still it's four or five episodes but that's a lot less than 10 or 20 or 30 some even more usually an hour long that you have to wait through to get through a season. I don't know if it's the small screen or what but I've lost my patience for a lot of stuff like this and sadly like most other individuals in my age Zone we want our reinforcement and we want it now no waiting for us in this country anyway.

No hamburgers tonight, not this Friday, I cook two steaks I've had in the back of my refrigerator freezer for a couple of years actually. They were Omaha Steaks you know those steaks should buy in the mail or package is a meat you buy in the mail and you get so many I wish mashed potatoes and all that kind of stuff? Well this was my first tried with what I have left a couple years now. I wish I had somebody here to cook for and make things a lot easier but steaks came out okay do a little bougie but not too bad. They tasted okay I had one for dinner with half of a microwaved baked potato and I have another one for tomorrow sometime or maybe Sunday depending..
