Wicked.

Went to see Wicked on Thursday - was very awesome and one of my pals has seriously got their geek on over it since. XD

As a result today we went to queued for Aberdeen's first ever ComicCon in costume. She cosplayed as Elphaba. XD (And pretty much melted at every child that looked at her in awe.) I got to wear the mouse costume inspired by Alice

Any photos of the Elphaba cosplay? :o I have a number of friends who'd probably really love to see a good one.

Went with a group of friends to see Mad Max yesterday. We ended up seeing it in 3D. I'm not sure if the ringing in my head was from that, or the cranked-up volume, or the 2-hour car chase, or all of the above.

But it was a great movie, in a lot of ways.

This is her after the sodding sodden downpour we stood through.
(I'd share another pic, but my friend's facebook is pretty security tight... But you might be able to still see it since it's now her user image.)
I suck at taking pictures. Another friend took a better one but probably won't upload it for a while.

"Good time at the 1st GCCC (Granite City Comic Fan), so popular looks like few hundred people won't make it in before closing."
- Gentleman Friend's status on Facebook. XD Horribly accurate.

I had a sore head/eye when leaving the Cinema but I put that down to being still damp with a sore throat combined with the thumping beats throughout. Volume was pretty loud. (We saw it in 2D.)
Had you seen any of the other Mad Max films?

[rae00]

cool. Let me know if more go up.

Nope, first Mad Max film. A friend looked up the others and apparently they're not that good; I probably won't even try to see them.

[dagronrat]

Will do.

Fair enough. XD Me neither.

[dagronrat]

Oh hey, that happened. (The weirdo with the mouse ears is me. :P)

Local newspaper website article for context.

Lol. Pretty. :X

I get headaches from the cranked up volume in cinemas as well, which is another reason why I haven't been watching anything these days.

I hope you won't come down with a cold, Dag. *pats (It's odd how everyone seems to be having a cold these days. My last one was over for one week before the new one crept up on me.)

[dagronrat]

It'll be the weather. It's been ridiculously changeable of late.
(And considering I'm croaky as a frog today, I'm pretty certain I've got the cold. On plus side I'm feeling better than last night!)

*hugs*

[fs_playground]

Ouch.
I hope you'll get better soon. *hugs

Despite the hay fever, I'm really happy about the amount of light we get these days. *loves the warm weather

YOU HAVE WARMTH? SEND US SOME! :D

Seriously. The local mountains still got snow this week!
