As is the norm, everything has settled down in my life. It has settled to the point that I got to have what use to be my normal evening. Wait till girlfriend goes to bed and watch stuff she does not approve of. I was even able to get a few rum drinks in (Kraken Black Roast Coffee Rum is sippable to the point that it is a shame to dilute to make it last).
Best of all, I was able to get to bed before midnight. Worst of all, it is balanced by 19 consecutive days of work. Managers are just boomers when it comes to internal email.
The more pressing downside is that it was a reminder of how little the two of us actually have in common. Her debate of whether or not she should go to bed in the nine o'clock hour came as I was watching "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" because there is nothing to watch on a Thursday.
The best time on the basketball floor are when the mats are down door to door. That sums up my opinion of Thursday's cable TV offerings.
She also does not dig immediate action sequences. Thus, we did not get past "John Wick: Chapter 2's" car reclamation. And this seems to be the case with anime as well because she was very quick to tell me to grab the Netflix DVD after a few minutes of "RG Veda."
Another key difference between us is her embrace of religion. Hence, it takes a little more work to try selling her a feminism agenda via the history of the Clamp Studio than my other female friends. This turned out to be a poor assessment of her judgement. It has nothing to do with having an open mind and everything to do with intuition.
