May Long Weekend

A painting from my book “A Pug Named Pru.”

May long weekend. We spent it tiding our yard and hiking around Knox Mountain. Tabs was ill Sat and Sun–she caught a gastro bug at the pool. Mist spent last night at her friend Sara’s and is at the beach with her today. I am waiting to pick her up for supper. I have finished my paper, so all is on schedule for when I leave for Vancouver on Wed. We will all stay at our favourite hotel again: Hotel Vancouver. 
Peter and I enjoyed Star Trek despite my criticisms:
Jim Kirk, Spock and McCoy all miscast–Kirk and Spock not suave and macho enough for me. 
Though the other crew members were well cast: Bones etc.
Enjoying “The Office” DVD series. We don’t have TV, so the shows are all new to me.
What to wear to Peter’s convocation: sophisticated elegance, or summer ease?
I am starving!  Need to eat…

    I disagree – I liked McCoy but agree about the Jim machismo. But spock was never overtly manly, no?

    But I felt like I was coming home to an old friend when Leonard lifted his fur hood on that snowy planet….

    I agree about Leonard. I love that guy. But the new guy is too fem. Spock was much more manly, yes?
    Also, I objected to McCoy because the actor is about 40 and the crew were supposed to be barely 20!
