15 final thoughts on season 3 of Stranger Things

I've now finished the season, so here are some more thoughts.

  1. Steve's character development is great (I am stealing this point from my friend Jeff). Look at him from the beginning of season 1 to where he is now. He even progressed from babysitter to friend and mentor. He also finally got past notions of 'cool' when considering people.
  2. I guess we just gave up on Kali? I kept waiting for us to summon the other magic teen, but El never did. El has the ability to find anyone in the world and when we need more help, we don't get her? Or we don't even consider getting her? Sigh.
  3. Are Joyce and her kids moving in the middle of the school year? If it's about three months after July 4th, it's early October...why are they moving then? It doesn't make a ton of sense to move Jonathan in the middle of his senior year.
  4. Where's Murray? Is he alive? Is he imprisoned? Did he move his bunker? I got more attached to him this season and so I wanted to get at least a glimpse of where he's at now.
  5. Joyce has a type doesn't she? Too bad that type is dying in front of her eyes after making huge efforts to save her and the world.
  6. I really wish we had seen some better moments between Billy and Max. It would've made his death more impactful.
  7. Erica getting the D&D books was a great moment. I hope we get to see her DM, she'd be incredible.
  8. Still not super clear what the mind flayer wants.
  9. The mayor plot line did not need to happen at all. He really was just wasted time.
  10. Now that the mayor's office is open though, I really want a character we know to run for it. Maybe the science teacher? Maybe one of kids' parents? 
  11. So does everyone in Hawkins think that their loved ones who morphed into the creature thing died in the mall fire? Or like what do they think happened?
  12. Is there going to be a mass-exodus of Hawkins? The news report made it seem like it was becoming well-known as a bad place to live. So are some people going to leave?
  13. Could Hawkins become a tourist site for conspiracy theorists or other people who believe in the supernatural? I feel like the news report could also have this effect.
  14. Who is the American? Could be Hopper, could be Billy, hell it could be Barb somehow. Why not? There better be another season cause I gots to know.
  15. More importantly, is that demogorgon d'Artagnan? He better be, that's all I have to say.

Starting my parental journey, part 1

To be clear, I am not pregnant. Nor do I currently plan on being pregnant soon. However, I promised myself that if I was 30 and still single I'd start to explore my options for having a child either on my own or later in life with a partner. Well, 30 came and went, but 31 is still here so close enough I figure. My first step was to make an appointment to discuss options with a doctor because I could do all the research I wanted on the internet, but I knew it would overwhelm me. As I write this, I haven't had that appointment yet so no news there. Now I made this appointment in February (hey, I was still 30 then!) and it was originally scheduled for October (yes, an 8-month wait for an initial appointment), but last week the appointment got moved up to this week and things got moving! The timing feels right in a certain way. Two people I care about are having babies in the next month, someone else I love is expecting next year, and I also know multiple couples either trying or g

Starting my parental journey, part 2

You can read part 1 here . Yesterday I began the next step of my parental journey. Ironically, it was starting birth control. This medicine helps prepare my ovaries for the egg retrieval process. It was weird taking the pill to prepare for my fertility journey because you typically think of the pill as ensuring you don't get pregnant. Obviously, I'm not getting pregnant now, but I am getting ready for that eventual possibility. There have also been various bureaucratic issues that I've been dealing with. Mostly insurance stuff (as I'm sure comes as no surprise). But, thanks to a new benefit at work that started 1/1/24, my journey will be (mostly) covered. While, again, there were some bureaucratic hurdles that I had to overcome in order for this to all work out, I am immensely glad that it did work out. I am nervous though. In part I'm nervous about a lot of the practicalities of this step in my journey. For instance, I will have to inject myself with various medica
