Oct. 2nd, 2016 03:23 pmI'm feeling almost back to normal. It helps that I've been out and about the last few days, including going to the cinema both Thursday and Friday. We went to see Magnificent Seven -- Goodnight/Billy exists, right? it has to -- and then Deepwater Horizon, both of which were very tense to watch. My new drink of choice is a small iced coffee, which lasts me the whole movie, very different to the pepsi max, sweets and nachos we used to have.
I'm still tired at night, usually heading to bed for 9, but that's getting better, and in a few weeks I'll be able to go swimming and lift heavy things again.
I also went to Lush to get some of the new Halloween products and oh my goodness, the Christmas range is out. Little Christmas dinos on sticks. Penguins! Snow Fairy body conditioner! *__________*
This week a fresher died of meningitis at Corey's uni. I feel so bad for her parents, I know how hard it was when Corey went away last year, to think of your child doing that and dying in the first week. I can't even imagine how hard that must be. I've been talking to Corey asking if they've arranged for the students to have meningitis inoculations if they haven't had them. I know the risk will be tiny, but better safe than sorry.
I bought Living With Ghosts. Obviously I like TBP CD but the other was good too. It was interesting to see how the rough mix songs evolved from those to the ones we actually know now. The Five Of Us Are Dying kept catching me out, thinking I knew where it was going and then changing completely.

It's awesome to know that you're feeling better every day, T. :)
OTOH, hearing about the death in the dorms is totes a downer. I hope that the school gets going with vaccination efforts.
For whatever reason, perhaps because WB fumbked the marketing for it, I totes forgot about MCR X. I'm curious to hear the demos (like any obsessive MCR fan, of course), but I didn't feel the need to rush out and get a copy of it. Maybe for Christmas.

I really am. Now if only I could crack needing so much sleep at night.
I've just been reading about the vaccinations and how the uni is dealing with it. But iof course that depends on the students actually going. Sadly they tend to think they're invincible at that age.
To be honest it's not something you need to rush out for. The rough cuts are interesting to hear, but not essential. I have to agree, though. The promo has been terrible.

It is! I plan to go there tomorrow. I suspect I may come home with a Christmas dino on a stick.

That's awful. Her poor parents!
I'm usually a completist but I don't think I'll ever get around to ever buying Living With Ghosts. I'm just not that interest in the Black Parade, I'm afraid.

It was horrible. I still feel bad for her parents. Their lives will be destroyed.
Yeah, considering it's no way near your favourite album that's not a surprise.
