Sold my soul for your eyes
Feb. 28th, 2025 09:01 pmSo since the gig I’ve been pretty low energy, a mix of usual gig tiredness but the addition of the stressful return from it didn’t help.
Mum did let me order the next read Christie book, The Thirteen Problems, andit came as part of a boxset of other Marple stories. Well I say came it got delivered to the other house with the same number and I had to chase it up. This one is a collection of short stories and I read the first one which was pretty good. I love that Miss Marple’s kinda so unassuming people seem to forget about her (even though they’re in her own house!) and how she got the solution that was so obvious but also so easy to overlook at the same time.
Yesterday was the Pokémon presents thing and it was mostly lil announcements in celebration, along with a new set for Pokémon pocket which was a highlight (it released today and I got some good pulls already). And there’s some more info on the next game which looks cool. Also it reminded me of Pokémon Conceige which is another thing I need to watch.
Also yesterday the new Doctor Who magazine came and while I’ve not had chance to properly look I did flick through and holy fuck. It’s been 20 years since the new series came out that’s totally crazy. It really doesn’t feel that long how has that happened?? (Also a hasbro thing reminded me it’s 29 years since Revenge Of The Sith too what is time??)
Mum wanted to get a few bits and I suggested heading to town cause Morrisons sent a voucher, not expecting her to want to and then bam! Off we went today to town which ended up being tiring cause mum insisted on getting beans and soup (totally 12 cans) along with three boxes of cat food which was heavy. By the end we were loaded up on bags so either of us had hands free.
However I did luck out. The Works had the Guardians Of The Galaxy book I regretted not getting when I saw Sonic 3 (which is still playing in cinemas this weekend??) along with two puzzle books (a Christie one and Stranger Things one). Smiths had the new SFX, Lego Minecraft magazine and the new Doctor Who chronicles, which is about season 7 which is the next boxset. And B and M had both of the Stranger Things sets yay!(Yeah I have a Stranger Things problem now how could you tell)
Speaking of I finally watched the next ep tonight (which I just finished before starting this post). I had hoped to watch earlier in the week but between depression wave, tiredness and the Twitch Rivals geoguesser last night I’ve just not had chance.
Tonight’s ep was The Dive and damn. It was like a major mood shift every time the scene changed. Susie’s house with feral children, Joyce and Murray surviving the plane crashing (and that threat to Yuri), Hopper’s prison time, the investigations in Hawkins, Eleven’s memories it was wild whenever it switched to someone else.
Honestly I hate sportsball captain so many, he’s such a dick and has such a hate boner for Eddie it’s embarrassing. I groan whenever he shows up on screen and I’m praying for his downfall. I’m not an Eleven guy but I kept looking forward to her memories for the ‘friendly orderly’. Why does he look so good in that outfit being all… like that. (Though was he electrocuted at the end??)
I am glad that we got some more Eddie in this one cause it’s felt like he was pushed to the background a bit. Honestly though not a fan of how he’s being demonised and in hiding/on the run the whole time. I ,I’ve he’s such a nerd and talks in Lord Of the Rings metaphors. I do love he decides to go to Steve’s make out spot (which to me suggests they made out there).
And speaking of Steve I’m a huge fan of him stripping off (though not that it’s in the dark) and then him being dragged under by a tentacle into the upside down. If there’s not tentacle fics of him out there I’m gonna be upset but I’m not gonna even look until I’ve finished the season cause I’m sure I’ll be hit with spoilers.
Honestly I do wanna watch the next ep but at same time I worry about my focus so I might watch tomorrow night instead cause I wanna know what the deal is with the title? The massacre of Hawkins Lab?? I feel it’s gonna reveal something and something big.
But I also wanna do other things tomorrow, namely read more The Thirteen Problems, get back to song Saturday and, of course, the Tubbathon is starting so there should be a schedule of the planned events (I hope anyway).
