Mar. 2nd, 2019 02:33 pmIt's March, which means hi-fives go to those who survived the February they dreaded, and hugs to those who now have to face this month.
I've been tag-teaming being ill with James. He had to take a day off work and didn't even put his leg on that day, then I got the cold again and spent days as a snot monster. Thankfully we both seem healthy now, so fingers crossed he doesn't get the cold off me again.
But things have happened. First, I achieved a h/c bingo challenge \o/ Yes, you heard that right, I actually finished and posted my story in time. It's winterhawk, has a lot of running through trees and punching of faces but more than anything. I got my bingo. Such giddy heights, maybe next time I'll get a full bingo. I can only go up. Or you know, never achieve one again and this is my glory moment *g*
We went to see 'Fighting With My Family' which was actually really enjoyable. Predictable as hell, but still enjoyable. What made me roll my eyes was the couple who turned up 45 minutes after the start of the film, and I mean the start of the actual film, not the trailers/ads. To set the scene, it was an early afternoon showing so the screen wasn't full in the slightest. I was sitting next to James in the middle front row behind the low wall, then there were three empty seats and then a couple on the aisle. As the film had been on so long I'd spread my stuff out on the empty seat next to me, then this couple came in. Instead of going to any of the completely empty rows behind they inched their way between the wall and me and James. They must have picked seats next to me as the man stood watching as I tried to gather up my stuff until the woman told him to sit on her other side. Then they both sat and ate pasta salads. Which, come on people. Odeon are great letting you take in your own snacks and drinks anyway, but that doesn't include full meals. Then they sat talking every now and then and kissing.
The weather was beautiful during the week so we went for a walk at the Wetlands, well I walked, James used their electric scooter. Not that many birds were around, but the flamingos and otters were in good form.
We went to see the Circus of Horrors at the theatre. I'll cut for details as some are pretty gruesome

Yesterday we got tickets to see The Book of Mormon in the autumn. I was on the mailing list so could get advance tickets, but obviously, lots of people had the same option as despite getting tickets only a few hours after release we're still halfway back in the stalls. Centre aisle seats though, so they're still good. Plus, I've heard it's a great show so I'm looking forward to it.
And ha, I started writing this earlier and had jinxed the situation as when he got to work James was sent straight home. Thankfully he can join this set of sickness to the last so it's only classed as one. But man, when will it end?! If he infects me again I may have to kill him. Just saying.
