My extremely hard life, by Dee, aged 31 and a little bit

Jun 06, 2011 19:57

Mr Dee has a meeting stupid-far* away from the city tomorrow evening so date night is off again, luv. The reasonable part of me says, ok, no worries, we'll just go and see a movie on the weekend, so what if we'll pay a little more. But the unreasonable part of me desperately wants to see X-Men: First Kiss and knows that on the weekend we're going ( Read more... )

You could go by yourself?

Mr Dee has already refused to go see the movie with his geek crew so that we could see it together, so that would be most churlish of me. :D

Aw <3

We just put off doing anything for our anniversary until, like, two months later due to exams and the poverty of being students. TAX RETURN I AM WAITING FOR YOU

X-Men is pretty awesome. I don't want to overbuild it, but it's worth seeing. I bet it won't go away early, though.

I bet it won't either, which is good, because I suspect I may want to see it another two times at least. :)

Huh. The thing I actually like about Chadstone is its movie theatres.

But then I grew up near Chadstone, and it may be bad but it is a 1 000 000 times better than, say, Brandon Park.

Also I remember what Chadstone *used* to be like, before they gave it NATURAL LIGHT (!!!)

They are the only good thing about Chadstone. Their size and willingness to screen things weeks after the city cinemas have stopped is terribly endearing. But the rest of Chadstone... it's the sheer SIZE of it that... I'm not even sure how to describe it. It's not quite horrifies, it's not quite terrifies, it's not quite sickens, but it's sort of all of them together. It's the fact that it's the size of a large village and it's a seething, anonymous mass of consumerism, like... like it's become something organic.

Seriously. SERIOUSLY. It makes me practically Lovecraftian here. I don't even know, it just bothers me.

Oh, no, you're completely right about the size. It's quite obscene.
