Where did you get your highlights?
Dec. 29th, 2024 12:50 amSo yesterday I managed to go see Sonic 3! Yipee! I did wanna do my nails for it but I couldn’t find black polish even though I know there is some which was annoying. There was a further annoyance in the morning of the bus website claiming there was no service for our stop (thankfully I spotted one go past).
Anyway, I headed to town and ended up being there an hour and a half early so I ended up wandering round more than I hoped. I didn’t get anything exciting though money did drain which was annoying. My best purchase was probably a funko mini puft from b and m and Mandalorian lip balm from there. (Alas nowhere had Frozen Empire). Also WH Smith’s didn’t have dnd stickers boo (if anyone spots them somewhere lemme know)
It was pretty eerie though, cause there’s been this mist/fog around on and off these past days so it felt pretty spooky.
Anyway! Once I was seated in the cinema there were a bunch of trailers, though I think the only interesting one is Elio (I’m a sucker for space). I’m still sceptical about the Minecraft movie though.
I loved that the rating card for Sonic was an art piece by someone, that was really cute. But anyway, film thoughts!

Unfortunately I missed the bus by a minute and at that point everything was shutting so I started walking and got the bus halfway back so that wasn’t too bad. Plus I liked the spookyness of walking in the fog.
Once home I found out mums friend, who was meant to come today, was too sick to come. I hope she feels better but it felt ironic. She was meant to come last week but mum got her to stay away so she wouldn’t catch what I had, only to get something anyway.
That meant today was a more restful day. I watched the rerun of the Agatha Christie documentary from a year or so back. I really need to read those books mum got me, I’ve not read a single one which is a shame. While the two poirot films were on (Death On The Nile and Evil Under The Sun) I built the next Lego set I got, the Up house.
It looks nice, though one piece has gone awol. The interior is a bit lacking though. There’s nice references to the film but it’s just a bit cramped which tends to be an issue with some Lego buildings. Still it was super on sale (and a gift) so I can’t complain really. The figures are good though and I love Russell’s overloaded backpack though it does feel odd that the bird’s not included.
Since this is a film post, mum wants to go see the Robbie film Better Man.i can’t say I’m too surprised cause she does like Robbie, but her interest has really peaked these last days. She wants to go to the Bentley Bridge cinema when her money is in cause the local cinema isn’t showing it, but that’s both an awkward place and tickets are twice as much which feels a lot to me. Of course the bigger issue is that I’ve got the biopsy in a few days, which means I’ll have stitches so 8m not sure how I’d be going. If I’m up to it we could go next Friday and eh, even if it’s not good I’ll be able to go to the Wolverhampton Forbidden Planet and Entertainer so should be able to get a sale thing or two.
But ugh I can’t lie I am starting to get anxious about it. I still half expect it to get cancelled last minute but then I’m also like… what state will I be in with stitches? Will I be able to sit or lay down without hurting? And, with it being new year, will I be safe to drink? And then, of course, there’ll be the waiting for the results. What will happen first, the results, Seapeekay finally sending the poster or the Set It Off gig?
Ah well.
Tonight I finished the last ep of Stranger Things season 2 and mum was down here for it. I put it on cause I thought she was heading up but she didn’t and I could see her watching occasionally, probably confused as all hell as to what was going on. It was really good though, we got Billy being sexy then a homoerotic fight with Steve and then everything going down. Clearly closing the gate isn’t the end of it (there’s two more seasons out already after all!) so I’m curious how it’s gonna go. Unlike with season 1 and 2 (where there was a massive gap between them and I forgot stuff as a result). I’m gonna start 3 next year. By which I mean in a week or two. (I’ll probably watch The Rig season 2 first)
It did make me wanna go back on Dead By Daylight though, so I did that and played a few matches as Steve un the winter event. I’m glad I got his slutty lil outfit but it’s a shame it seems to not have a bloody version to unlock.
Anyway, now I’m gonna bundle up, maybe fic and then there’s the rest of the weird days between Xmas and new year. (At least tomorrow has the Taskmaster new year thing and Quackity lore stream, then Monday has Incredibles 2)
