Week of Convalescence
During my week of convalescence after getting hit by a car, I watched so much TV that my brain was in danger of turning to mush and oozing through my ears.
I watched movies, whole seasons of shows, and true crime documentaries. I got my money’s worth with these streaming services, though I didn’t dip into Starz or Peacock, which I do and don’t pay for, respectively.
72 Hours with Kevin Hart and SNL’s Marcello Hernandez (movie on Netflix): A ridiculous comedy that Kevin Hart is too old and too far into his career to star in, but right on time for young Marcello. There’s a scene with poached whale penises. I am not ashamed to admit I laughed.
White Chicks with Shawn and Marlon Wayans (movie on Netflix): I rewatched the comedy out of nostalgia and curiosity to see why Marlon claims people are always asking for a sequel. It don’t need one.
Adults (series on Hulu): My niece recommended this hilarious comedy about New York roommates in their early 20s to cheer me up. I’m so glad she did. I paid it forward and told a cousin to add it to her queue. I wonder how their table reads and rehearsals went. I hope there’s a third season.
Dying for Sex with Michelle Williams from Dawson’s Creek (series on Hulu): It’s a dramedy centered around a woman dying of stage 4 breast cancer that spreads to the rest of her body. She leaves her husband to go on a quest to finally experience an orgasm caused by another person. Proceed with caution depending on your mental state.
Perfect Wife (true crime docuseries on Hulu): The real-life version of Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn. If you don’t get that reference, go ahead and read the novel. Cheat code: watch the movie starring Ben Affleck. It stayed very true to the novel. A wife disappears for weeks causing everyone to suspect the husband of foul play. Then she returns. Her story has holes.
Natureboy (true crime docuseries on Hulu): A young Black man started a cult and got vulnerable people seeking connection and direction to follow him around the globe and give him money. Once they were thoroughly brainwashed, he abused them.
It Ends With Us (movie on Hulu): I read the book (and its sequel) by Colleen Hoover because I learned an adaptation starring Blake Lively was in the works. I was a huge Lively fan. When all the controversy surrounding the movie emerged, I was turned off from seeing it in theaters, knowing it would make its way to streaming. The title stems from Lilly Bloom breaking the cycle of domestic violence and finding real love.
Is God Is with Sterling K. Brown and Vivica A. Fox (movie on Prime) I can’t say I was excited to watch this movie about a mother who asks her twin daughters to kill their father after his attempted murder of them by setting them ablaze. Something about the trailer didn’t grab me, but I stand corrected after watching it at home.
Not pictured: the bizarre season 3 of Euphoria with Zendaya and Colman Domingo on HBO Max (Max?) and DVR’d shows, such as my favorite Access Hollywood. I’m heartbroken that after decades on air, NBC cancelled the daily entertainment-centered news show. By the end of this month, no more Scott Evans—at least not on network TV. I’ll still catch him on his YouTube series House Guest, which I also caught up on during the week. I attended the New York stop of the live tour in April. Don Lemon and Tamron Hall were guests.
Fun Fact: KevOnstage né Kevin Fredericks was Scott’s first guest on House Guest. I had tickets to see KevOnstage’s one man play Grief Sucks the week that lady said she didn’t see me and hit me in the crosswalk. I missed the show and a weekend in Philly.
Back to the boob tube: I watched hours of Brooklyn News 12 interspersed with a slew of personal injury attorney commercials. Oh, the freaking irony. I changed the channel when the pre-recorded loop of news stories replayed.
After days of delivery, leftovers, and quite frankly skipped meals, my shoulder gave me permission to cook dinner Saturday. It was a simple stir-fry of beef sausage, beans, corn, onions, and kale. You know what wasn’t simple? Cutting the onions and sausage, and stripping, cutting, and massaging the kale. Why is kale the one being massaged in this household? I pay the damn mortgage.
Certain tasks I’ll go ahead and struggle to use my left hand, my non-dominant hand. It took me 56 seconds to unlock the two locks of my front door. I know because I recorded myself. My coordination was so off. I later figured I should insert with the right, then turn (what caused the pain) with the left. But when it comes to knives, I’ll go ahead and grit my teeth and bear the pain while I do what needs to be done. Same for putting my waist-length braids into a bun to can shower. My shoulder was on fire, shooting bolts down my bicep and up my trapezoid, but I’ve been here before.
The other day, I made spaghetti. Neither stirring the spaghetti nor straining the water were easy feats, but I did them.
Clap for me!
While prepping, cooking, and eating, I started and finished listening to audiobook Baggage Claimed by Alexandra Warren. The spicy romance aka smut novella clocks in at 2 hours and 37 minutes. I listened at 1.5 speed, and I’m moving slowly these days, so even pausing for a call didn’t stop me from finishing around the same time I finished eating. Cleaning? Well, the pots went on the bottom shelf of the fridge and everything else loaded into the dishwasher.
During the week, I finished audiobook Miracle at St. Anna by James McBride and physical book With Love from Harlem by ReShonda Tate. Miracle was a Libby hold due the next day with someone waiting. I listened on double speed while I wallowed at the police station to file a report about the crash.
With Love from Harlem is also tainted. I read the first 130+ pages of the historical fiction novel about the relationship between Hazel Scott and Adam Clayton Powell, Jr (news to me!) during my first emergency room trip in August due to a respiratory viral infection. I was there from 7 pm to 4 am. They owe me a w2 for that work shift.
It’s a long weekend and the last few days of summer. The plan is to end the bed and couch rot to venture out and enjoy this beautiful city. I may go to the movies. A theater with reclining seats, of course.
This is a standalone piece, but for more context read Funny, Not Funny: 2026 Car Crash Edition.

On gratitude and luck…
About 13 years ago I had my kids with me when I was involved in a five-car smash-up. I unexpectedly found the photos while looking for something else.
We were all going the speed limit, and thought follow-distances were safe. But a driver up ahead suddenly decided they wanted to turn left. But not from the turn lane.
They slammed on their brakes in the driving lane. Five cars turned into one.
I’ll never forget the sound our car made. Or what the airbag felt like smashing my face and arm. Which, of course, saved me from massive injuries.
My kids were physically fine. Just scared and crying (they were little). I got burned, jammed my elbow, and lost my glasses. But that’s it. I must have tracked-in a four-leaf clover.

Urgent mutual aid:
Alright insurance is only paying out about half the purchase price of another equivalent 15+ year old vehicle.
Which is quite a bind right now as my partner is also just finding out that the contract they lined up probably isn't panning out.
So we were already pretty highly rent burdened and now we're trying to recover from our car being in an accident.

Traffic Sucks
I backed out of the driveway at 7:29am. At that time the GPS app (Waze) was already telling me I was going to be late to work. My ETA was 9:03. The app detoured me off of my normal route less than half a mile from my house…
…and it was all downhill from there.
At about 8:50 I still had 10 miles to go and Waze started recalculating. My ETA started going up… fast. There was an accident on route 128 South (that’s route 95 for all of you non-locals) right at the junction with the Mass Pike (route 90, for all of you non-locals). I pulled into a parking spot at work at 9:30.
Nine. Fucking. Thirty.

So tell me, how’s your fucking Thursday morning treating you? Nothing like a two hour drive as your democracy is collapsing to make you feel good about the state of the world, know what I mean?
Here’s a cat. Enjoy.

So the bad news is the car didn't survive my plan to get an early start at the hacker space, but the good news is I did 😤
SR99 got a good one today, I just replaced the front suspension myself this fall 😭 Thankfully the crash wasn't my fault, I don't have any graphic injuries and insurance will help some but this is a setback for sure.
If you're able to pitch in I'd appreciate a little love
