I've been on a flist catch up and it's been a very happy one with the no tags news and The Umbrella Academy trailer and Gerard's Hazy Shade of Winter song. I'm not linking as I suspect every one interested will have seen by now. But, happiness!

We went to see Glass yesterday. I haven't seen either of the two films that came previous to it, but it was entertaining enough. We had planned to go the day before but my MiL is ill again. With cellulitis, this time, which she knew was coming on days previously, said her leg was hurting but insisted she was fine until she couldn't actually stand up and agreed to call the doctor while packing up her stuff as she was sure she was going to end up in hospital again. Which she didn't, but why leave it that late? I really don't get it. Also, her GP is an idiot. We spent the afternoon at hers waiting for the GP to phone, when he did he prescribed antibiotics and said he may visit but may not as it's so hard to get parking outside her house. In the end he did turn up and was in all of a minute or so, and while there said she shouldn't run her electric heater as it's bad for her leg. And the damp is bad for her chest. Idiot.

We also saw Corey yesterday as he had a letter that needed dropping off. We chatted for a while and he seems so much happier than he was at the end of last year. Sleeping better and just better in general.

I'm going to Kayleigh's to meet her new girlfriend tomorrow. She told me she was dating again last week, and I'm happy for her as she said for the first time in months she wanted to smile again. But, I still feel bad about Shauna who still talks to me via FM messenger and is still heartbroken and doesn't know Kay is dating someone else. Plus, Kay actually said she wanted us to meet and gah, someone new and important in my sister's life. I need to make a good impression. Yikes.

At my latest trip to Company they were selling off live vac-packed oysters in the corner of wonder. Seriously, that corner is amazing, all the random oddments that end up marked way down as no one knows what to do with them I suspect. They were only £2 but I have no idea what to do with oysters. I've never tried them, have no desire to try them and don't understand how they can be alive.

However, the pre-cooked potatoes I bought were portioned up, frozen, and make excellent mash when defrosted, mashed and seasoned. So potatoes, yes. Vac-packed oysters, no.
