Less fluffy
Jul. 24th, 2017 09:44 amDear caffeine, please hit my system soon so I'm less cranky and whiny and basically less of a brat. Or, if that's not possible, could I at least not realize how much of a brat I am? I could be blissfully unaware and that could be fun, too.
Let's see. This is going to basically jump around as my interest comes in waves and also I'm in a mood.
The less fluffy stuff first, I suppose.
( Cousin stuff. )
Went out yesterday with Ari & D. We hit the mall and stopped at the foodcourt so she could eat and we chatted and it was nice and weird all at the same time, as all things with Ari will probably be until the end of forever. I think I caught her on a not so great day (not bad, just not... great?) but I don't know for sure. I hadn't seen her in forever for a variety of reasons (namely, I'm 92% sure her uncle, who had a stroke sometime within the last year, moved in with them and things have been extra chaotic and also I am very good at flaking on things but so are they) so I did not flake this time. She put her head on my shoulder at lunch which was nice because hey, sweet and also weird because pre-Incident Ari wouldn't have done so unless she was dead tired or hiding from something in a scary movie. But a new normal is to be expected, so you roll with it and as far as things go, it's a nice change.
Wandered around FYE while D did an exchange and I debated buying all kinds of useless stuff I don't need but decided to save my money in case we hit another store with more interesting useless stuff for cheaper. We did not, so I didn't spend my money. Huzzah.
Then we went back to their house and basically watched movies. Watched You've Got Mail which I know I watched way back when and fucking hated but I don't remember if Ari and I watched it together or if it was one where we both saw it, but not together. In any case, I figured I might as well give it another shot. Sometimes you change enough to appreciate movies you previously disliked.
NOPE. I'd forgotten it opened with them blatantly emotionally cheating on their SOs and basically coasting on, "hey, you liked Sleepless in Seattle, right?" to gloss over that. Sigh. On the plus side, at least D was just as outraged by the ending as I was when I first saw it. FINALLY. I swear, when it first came out people would get really upset if you said you didn't like it, especially if you were at all computer friendly. "B-but you should love this movie!" No. I shouldn't. Because it is AWFUL. So vindication at last!
( And I blather because why not. )
That went and got long. Not sure if I feel better having vented or if the caffeine finally kicked in but I'll take it either way.
I think I'll put the fluffier stuff in its own post and leave this as just needing to ramble.
