Star Trek Discovery — Series 2 Episode 14: Such Sweet Sorrow (Pt 2) — A Review

*Spoilers*



19th April, 2019

Yes: I’m officially too skint to afford hot cross buns.

Which is a shame: the odd one?

Is occasionally nice.

The most I can can do, this Good Friday?

Is be grateful I can’t afford the blessed things.

I don’t think my weight could take the pace.

~≈§≈~

Actually, that’s something else I think I should mention … 



My GP has had me taking medication to deal with an underachieve thyroid: for quite some time.

AND had made sure I was on something that helped what we thought was Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

That could’ve have been a mistake.

As — after the last set of thyroid function tests — included tests on my levels of Vitamin D.

Turns out I’ve a Vitamin D deficiency.

And the medications she’s given me for that … ?



Ain’t half helped!

~≈§≈~

At any rate … ?

At any rate, I have time on my hands … 

Time on my hands, and nothing to do … 

Except catch up with something.

Yep.

However good today actually is, it is still a Friday, which means the last episode of … Star Trek: Discovery, Series two.

Star Trek Discovery — Episode 14: The War Without, The War Within

7th February, 2018.

OK … The tumble dryer is decidedly on.

But ut’s OK, I can give up using the tumble dryer, anytime I want.

I’ve just got some socks to dry, OK?

Well, I say some … 

~≈ß≈~

OK … 

This post is starting to wander, a little bit, isn’t it?

It wasn’t meant to.

I meant to tell you … 

Well, possibly a lot of things*.

One of which is (possibly) obvious.

I got up seriously early, this morning: for a hospital appointment in Basildon.

I really wish I had, to be frank.

But … ?

Frankly, I’m not getting any younger.

And, equally as frankly?

Chest pains, at my age, and at my sort of weight?

Aren’t something to take lightly.

Up at 5·30am, and off to Basildon it was.

~≈ß≈~

I’m — sort of — glad I did, though.

The actual appointment, with the hospital’s specialist cardiology nurse, went quicker than I expected: even with another ECG examination and a stethoscope.

From what the nurse told me?

I don’t have Angina.

Yet.

But does want me to have a CT scan: to have a seriously good look at my coronary arteries, so we can see if I need a course of statins.

We’ll have to see what happens when I get the appointment.

~≈ß≈~

At any rate … ?

At any rate, I’ve actually had tonight, free.

At least, free to do a few things.

Wash my socks.

Makes some more Teaser videos.

Do some housework.

Eat.

Email my mother.

And?

And catching up on this week’s episode of Star Trek: Discovery.

Twisty is possibly the word.

Especially when you see the look on ‘Captain’ Georgiou’s face …
