Did it work?

I have signed back up for the movie pass thing at my local (chain, but it is literally the only movie theater in town, not even in my town which doesn't have one at all but the town next door) theater and committed to a ticket to Everything Everywhere All At Once. I feel good about that decision.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Spent a good portion of the afternoon napping. Right now the cough and congestion are less than before, but we'll see how that goes. In the meanwhile I have my laptop, my tablet and plenty of books here.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

$500 refrigerator parts and labor. Better than $1000-2400 for a new one.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Everything Everywhere All At Once

Oooooh I want to see this so much.

I’m 25 minutes early for my showing. First time in a theater since Before! So far no one else is in the auditorium, so that’s nice. Walking through the mall and being amongst the other customers in the lobby was weird but ok. The mall now has a tattoo parlor and what looks like a go kart course. I feel like a more knowledgeable and insightful person would be able to draw a lot of interesting conclusions from the differences between walking-through-the-mall-before-the-movie now and 30-40 years ago.

Congrats on the fridge repair, msbelle!

I hope it keeps mild, Sheryl. Did you have holiday plans?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I have a third viewing of EEAaW tonight. Woo!

I was sharing pieces from the store with Ple as we were there. Prompting her to gasp "Furniture porn! What is this place?"

You were torturing me with beaaaaaautiful thing! Torturing!

Poor L lost the bulk of her spring break (and her birthday) to... a cold. Not, thank goodness, COVID (multiple negative tests, including PCR, and same for the person who she caught it from), just a damn cold, but apparently, if you haven't had one for a few years, they hit like a damn truck. So that's been fun. (She said this morning that she feels like she's been speedrunning being sick. Went from meh to miserable Tuesday, better than meh to miserable with a slightly damp cough yesterday, and is now at "well, the cough is better and the fever's pretty much gone, but now my nose is stuffy AF" stage.

Aw, bummer! Though, glad all tests were negative.

We were supposed to go to my MIL's for the first seder, but now Gary's going to pick up food from her and I guess we do a Zoom seder.

Boo colds! I did multiple covid tests and I think I just had a mild allergy to east coast spring, and even that little bit was enough to remind me I hate being sick and have not missed it these past two years!

I am on my way to a soccer game but it is collllld out!

Enjoy the movie t!

Msbelle, $500 still sucks though. Sorry.
