The people are pickles for sure

Tomorrow morning Mrs Basil is heading off to Rotterdam for a week to attend the “Rotterdam Lab” at the International Film Festival Rotterdam.

It’s a 6am flight, her hotel doesn’t allow check-in until 3pm, and the event begins at 2pm and lasts until late evening… She’s going to have a bit of a day.

That’s on top of her usual anxieties when attending professional events like this. It will be a rollercoaster of emotions for her as ever.

Seven Dog Day Afternoons

Me, I’ll be left dealing with my shithead chaos goblin or “Our dog, Scout” as Mrs Basil likes to call her.

Tomorrow I might try in vain to take her out to some pubs. She’ll ruin almost every minute of the experience but I’ll try anyway.

By the end of the week I’ll be tired, bored, frustrated, and miserable.

Here’s to the next seven days.
