shadowhiveAfter Friday’s post a few things happened that I didn’t post on the Saturday post.
First I had some luck, I was half watching the x-box uk stream and ended up winning a game, a deluxe version of Borderlands 4! I looked it up and it was £90 which is crazy.i expected to need to mess about with the Xbox storage but it was only 30gb which surprised me. I’ve never played Borderlands before so I am curious, but cause of the weekend (more on that later) I didn’t get to go on it yet.
Awsten was doing a signing of his book and merch with purchases on Friday. I wasn’t going to do it cause shipping is horrendous, but the live said the anniversary version of the book was gonna be gone soon so… I caved. Having it signed does justify the expense a little but still…
In the night I watched Hotel Transylvania 3 cause it was leaving Netflix. It was entertaining enough and I liked the music and performances though it’s one of those things where you kinda knew how it was gonna go. That’s not a bad thing necessarily though.
Saturday night the last night of the proms which was very eclectic. The conductor was very sweet and got into conducting cause of fantasia, so it was so cool that it included two pieces from it, especially sorcerers apprentice which was her fav. The rest included all kinds of things, a musical section of my fair lady, boherimian rhapsody and Bill Bailey on the typewriter. It was pretty fun and it’s good to have something that’s good as opposed to *gestures*
Yesterday though ended up being a bleh day. I was tired from all the working Saturday and then mum decided to be bitchy and the two combined to make my mood low so I just kinda spent yesterday tuned out.
In the night I did finally go on Dave the diver which does seem pretty good so far, though it does feel odd to have sushi made from every single fish you find.
Today I woke up and I’ve been headachy so I ended up lying down and napping, which seemed to help a bit.
Other than that my Owen pins came today and they look nice. Also I read the fantastic 4 issue 3 I picked up and that was fun too. I felt so bad for Doom though cause for all his brilliance he couldn’t solve the problem at hand.(and then there’s a strange wooden thing that can mind control people?)
This week mostly feels like it’ll be low energy. I have to chase up student finance to check if it’s being processed ok. There’s the food shop delivery. A funeral (of a relative of mums friend, I think I only met her twice but she was about 100). And then there’s going out Saturday and dnd Sunday.
I do wanna do a few other things (like the aforementioned Borderlands 4, plus the Isla hope to fic and catch up on Alien Earth). But also there’s new stuff coming this week with new Futurama tomorrow and High Potential Wednesday.

Since it’s unlikely I’ll be going to the cinema again before Saturday here’s the second month round up of the cinema pass. I went twice and saw 4 films total. I think my ranking is this:
Honey Don’t
The Toxic Avenger Unrated
Freakier Friday
Jaws
The first three are all pretty close to each other and I really enjoyed all three of them. Jaws is a classic thing and I’m glad I saw it even though I enjoyed the others more.
Speaking of Saturday some of the cinema times have been put up. I’m going to see Thunderbirds and it looks like I might see The Bad Guys 2 alongside it (the last conjuring film is also a possibility, but The Roses is out cause there’s currently one showing and it clashes).
There’s two mystery showings been put up too, one on the 29th and one on the 6th. Assuming they’re different I’d bet the first is Him and the second is The Black Phone 2. The first would be a welcome distraction after the stressful phonecall that day.
I feel that’s everything though I also feel I missed something.

I really feel that this third month of the pass will be used a crazy amount I think I’ll be going about 5 times
