Sunday blithering
Mar. 6th, 2011 11:00 amI slept horribly last night, due to hip pain on both sides that would not let me sleep for more than 45 minutes in a row. Entirely due to it being that time of the month. Ah well. I gave up around eight-something and just got up.
Yesterday was awesome, though. The Mummy viewing went spectacularly, and by the end of the evening I had a killer headache from laughing too much. Best way to get a headache, btw. It was so heartwarming to see friends and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Dinner was wonderful and the MST3K of the Mummy was hilarious. Many geek references were made and I hope that we can get together again soon, because this was very restoring on so many levels.
One of my friends brought her fiancée, whom I have never met, but who was definitely my kind of person; he had a tattoo of the Rankin-Bass Bilbo on his arm. Awesome. The only detriment to the evening was the lack of chairs, as I don't have enough comfy seating in my living room. Some day I really need to fix that. Furniture is so expensive, though. :( Thank goodness I have lots of pillows. Friend's son has shot up to over six feet tall, and it was quite amazing to see him again. He's becoming an adult! Shocking how that happens. He was adorable, though, and held the squid through the movie because "the squid wants to watch, too."
All in all, it was a reminder of what I miss out, being a hermit so much.

It's so funny--I went 30 years without ever knowing anyone else who loved that film, and now they seem to be coming out of the woodwork.

Children grow so fast - isn't it amazing how quickly they change when we, of course, do not change or age at all? :-)
