Hello hello! Happy Saturday! I’m gonna do my volunteer deliveries, then pick up a new work phone from my boss (current phone has stopped accepting incoming calls which is actually kind of AWESOME, but no good things can last), then get gas, then come home. And in the meantime, y’all get to talk amongst yourself.

Ugh, I hate this! Stupid movie theater scheduling means I could only see it once and now my memory is rapidly fading in terms of exact details (thank goodness I took notes so I’m not totally at sea). I’m gonna try to finish the whole thing with minimal reveries on the meaning of that one shadow in the corner or whatever.

Happy Monday! I am WORN OUT. Yesterday I went to a pumpkin patch with my friends and their friends and their friends’ 6 year old. Did you know 6 year olds don’t have an off switch? He just kept going and going and going and finally we left at 7:30 and he was still asking to ride the merry go round one more time and/or go on the jump pillow.
Continue readingSunday WatchAlong: 7am Chicago Time, We Watch Fan! For Shahrukh Month!
Happy Sunday! Just like last week, this was a bit last minute, so if no one is able to join by 15 minutes into the film, I’ll just end it and go about my life. Partly because this movie is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to scary to watch all by myself.

Woot, part 2! For those of you haven’t read one of these before, I am writing this entirely based on memory. So I am gonna make mistakes, but I’m also gonna be doing way better than seems reasonable. It’s a curse, this is why I never get to enjoy re-watching movies, because I have the whole thing recorded in my brain already.
