The good and the meh

[jayes_musings]

So for the good. I went and had a good work out this morning. 35 minute walk with a little bit of running mixed in (Go me!) and then weights. After coming back home for shower, I then went and saw Star Trek for a second time, by myself. It was the earliest showing, nice and quiet I thought to myself. There were maybe twenty people there, so why did one couple choose to sit right behind me, when their entire row was free? Not just that, but god knows what they were doing with their popcorn supersize bucket, bowling with it from the sound of it. Then there was the couple with their elderly parent(?) who settled in a couple of rows in front...fine. But then not more than ten minutes into the movie, they decide to move back two rows to mine and just a few seats down, and then the old biddy was asking for a running commentary throughout. It wasn't as if their original row was worse than mine, probably better. Well, at least no one's phone went off, so I should be thankful for small mercies.

And anyway, the main thing was that I enjoyed ST as much this time as I did the first time. Probably the best big screen movie I've seen since '300'. And I'm not even much of a Trekkie/Trekker.

So, I get home, and the TV doesn't work. WTF? It comes on for about 3 seconds and switches off again as if it's on the sleep timer...but it's not, and I can't disable that either. Oh well, telly is about 10 years old, and the picture quality has been getting noticeably worse, so I guess it's time for a new one. Great. At least it might give me a chance to catch up on my DVD watching.

And anyone getting notifs? I haven't had any since last night...so just wondering.

I know. Part of me feels that I'm just being a crotchety old lady, but come on, one of the biggest screens in the theater + hardly anyone there and they just had to sit right by me...and TALK! ARGH!

I did get this one, so I don't know. And with threads being all over the place it's tough trying to track them down and seeing. I did some and I'm okay on them.

I have a friend who does that, so I avoid going to the movies with her because it drives me batshit.

I feel like I've lost track of everything. *sigh* I am so behind.

Me too! And I can sit anywhere in a theater, doesn't matter, and I can guarantee some one will sit next to/behind/in front of mef. I'm so tired of it.

I know what you mean. Right now in my inbox, I have 3 reps from you. How many are out there, I have no idea! Don't worry, we'll get to them after the Tammys. *hug*
