Ha'way the lads!

We went to see Mission Impossible -- The Final Reckoning, yesterday, and it was a ridiculous, OTT, action packed and fitting end to the series I felt. Though, I did see more of Tom Cruise in his undies than I expected.

While at the Metrocentre, I also went to get my monthly eyelash tint, but went to a different branch as the one I've been going to was busy. They actually did a better job in getting the lower lashes, but nearly scrubbed my eyeballs out of my head when getting the dye off at the end. So, not sure which one I'll be going back to next time.

Today we've picked up my MiL as she's staying until Monday, and we've come home because Sunderland are playing at Wembley this afternoon to, hopefully, get back into the Premier League. James has bought himself a EE TV day sports pass so he can watch the match with my MiL, while I'll be casually watching from my desk. So, fingers crossed that they'll win, as it'll be huge for the region to get back into the top league.

Tomorrow the plan is to go out for Sunday dinner, then bank holiday Monday, meet up with Corey somewhere before taking my MiL back home.

Congrats on the promotion, Sunderland!

LOL what a conundrum with the eyebrow places /o\

[turps]

YAY!

Cats went everywhere due to the noise when the second goal went in \o/

I know, right? They look good, but talk about heavy-handed scrubbing.

I'm glad you enjoyed the movie. I hope to be able to see it, but I fear it won't be coming to my local theater. (It's a big enough movie that there should already be a 'coming soon' poster up, but no indication, which isn't a good sign.)

Having your eyeballs scrubbed out doesn't sound fun. o_O

From the comment above, I take it the game went James' way? Congrats!

I hope you have a good dinner out today and a good meet up with Corey tomorrow.

The movie was good, though I'm surprised it isn't coming to your local theatre, the franchise is such a big one I thought it would go everywhere.

Ha, no, eyeball scrubbing wasn't fun at all. I mean, I liked she was so careful to get rid of all the excess dye. But I do like my eyes to be in my head!

The game did go James' way. They did well :D

It was a lovely dinner and meet up. Now, I'm enjoying being in the house alone again.

[spikedluv]

We never got the new Captain America, either, but I'd think this one would be right up the red neck alley of our county. o_O

Now, I'm enjoying being in the house alone again.

I feel that so hard! There's only so much socializing a person can be expected to do. *g*

I'm afraid all those MI movies are a bit OTT for me, but glad you enjoy them!

It sounds like your cats aren't sports fans? LOL. Well, I hope your team won.

I hope you have a good visit with your MiL, and Corey, too!

Oh, the Mission Impossible movies are ridiculously ott. I doubt I'd like them so much if I watched at home, but I do enjoy a big budget, throw the budget at the stunts and effects on the big screen.

Our team did win, but no, the cats aren't sports fans at all. Unless it's wrestling together *g*

The visit with my MiL went well, and we all enjoyed going to see Corey.

I did enjoy watching the original Point Break on the big screen. And that was back (1991) when we still had really had BIG screens, before they split all those rooms in half and made the screens a lot smaller.

I don't know if you remember Tober, aka "Shadow Cat" (see icon - she died Dec 2007), the kitty I had before Lennon and Macca. But she loved watching sports. I put an ottoman right in front of the television, and she loved to sit right there. Her favorite was soccer, she'd attack the screen trying to get the soccer ball. She also enjoyed hockey, but there, she was aiming for the players. And she also enjoyed attacking the horses for Grand Prix Jumping. I wish I'd been able to capture a video (but didn't - long before I could do videos), but I'll always remember one day, a horse jumped off-screen, and Tober leapt to the side of the television set expecting to capture that horse! It was hilarious! None of my other cats have cared much about television, but Tober LOVED watching sports, but didn't care much about regular shows or movies.

Glad you had an enjoyable visit!

Good to hear you enjoyed yourself at the movies. Despite all the undies :-)

Getting your eyeballs scrubbed out sounds quite bothersome so yeah, might not be worth it.

I hope they won and got back to the top league! Also that the MiL visit went well and you all had a good time.

[turps]

So many undies! But yeah, it was a good film.

I do like having my eyeballs in my head, but on the other hand, she did a great job. Dilemma!

Sunderland did win, so that was great. And I did have a good time with my MiL :)
