the letter is of course from you.
Oct. 17th, 2011 02:14 pmSo, in terms of my to-do list, this weekend was TOTAL FAIL and I don't want to talk about it. :P
But! I did lots of RL things, including a volunteer shift at a local clothes sale and making (more) brownies and having lunch with K, and also saw movies!
( Moneyball (aka that baseball movie that I'd heard was kind of good). )
And then my mother's Netflix was ( X-Men: First Class. Which is old news by this point, but cut just in case. )
Mostly, it didn't surprise me much at all; thanks to fandom osmosis, I knew a lot going in. (My mother: "-and Kevin Bacon was good-" Me: "Kevin Bacon's in this?!" My mother: "Yeah, he's the Nazi guy-" Me: "Shaw, Mom. His name's Shaw." My mother: "I thought you hadn't seen this.") Sometimes I wonder why I don't just give up on source material entirely, and interact with media solely through fandom - some things would be so much easier! I would probably like all the characters better!
And then the sequel to God's War arrives in the mail, and I remember. \o/ YAY THIS IS PROBABLY GOING TO BREAK MY HEART YAY.
