Song: “Flash Light” by Parliament
Mood: 8
This has been a pretty good weekend. I caught up on some sleep, got some stuff done, and in the evenings watched some movies with J.
I’m feeling pretty well, too. I’m still thinking about work a lot but for some reason I feel a little less pressure when I think of it. After seeing some Halloween stuff in the stores already, I’ve got that and Christmas on my mind, too.
Last year, Halloween didn’t go very well. I found the voices and sounds of the kids outside quite distressing, even though they were just little kids out having fun. J handled giving out the candy while I hid in the basement and tried to distract myself from what was going on. I’m really hoping that this year will be a little different. I still expect to be uncomfortable but not as bad as last year. We’ll see.
Like I said, I’ve even got Christmas on my mind but I don’t want to get into that right now – it’s far too early to be worry about that.
J and I watched Guardians of the Galaxy last night, and then GotG vol. 2 this evening. Both are very good movies and had both of us laughing at several points. I didn’t even realize the second one had been out in theatres until J said she’d ordered it from Amazon. I really like what they did with the credits on vol. 2. I wonder how much effort and computer time it took to make it look like it was from the late 70s/early 80s.
On Friday, we watched The Magnificent Seven Ride! which was okay but not as good as the first one in the series.
Tomorrow, J heads back to work. I’m not sure yet what I will do – a lot depends on the weather. It’s supposed to be nice and cool for the next few days so I may spend some time outside.
Stay safe.
