Phil's Wedding and The Clone Wars
So, Phil got married. He had never been married before and he's in his 60s. I decided to go to the wedding, mostly because my brother was going too. The wedding was last night. I had a lot of anticipatory stress about it and it was actually quite stressful for me. It was a lot of people and people I don't know well and a lot of noise too. My parents' friends flew out from Idaho to attend the wedding, and while I know them, I still felt very uncomfortable because I don't see them often. Most of the time I just sat there, ignored, and stressed out.
The wedding was pretty slow moving. The ceremony was nice at least. It was actually held where my dad went to college. It was outside with a gazebo and the weather was nice. It took a while to get started and then afterward we went in the building to get some hors d'oeuvres, which were yummy. I got some cheese and crackers and a bacon wrapped scallop. The actual meal was really good too. I got the salmon with this yummy cream sauce among other things (roll, caesar salad, scalloped potatoes, and fruit). I didn't dance, but no one else did either, but I enjoyed bopping along a bit to the music. There was also a little photo booth where you could pose for funny photos with props. I did that with my mom. I wore a clown wig, while she held a pinwheel.
We left not long after that. Parts of the wedding were good like the food, ceremony, and the music, even though it was too loud to hear anyone talking. That was another issue for me, I really couldn't hear what anyone was saying. Most of the time was spent just sitting there stressed out of my mind, but I got through it. I'm happy for Phil.
In other news, I finally finished Star Wars: The Clone Wars the other day. This was a great show overall, but I'm mostly just going to comment on the last handful of episodes. They were powerful and harrowing. I'm glad they focused on Ahsoka. She has really become one of my favorite Star Wars characters of all time. She goes through such a great arc and actually what she went through was pretty heartbreaking. I really felt for her. I can't wait for her live-action series coming in August.
The last three or four episodes felt like a step up in production and oh the music. It was haunting at times. It of course leads up to the Order 66 turning point. It was a great supplement to the prequels. Actually, Clone Wars is what I wish the prequels could have been. I admit I couldn't be too fearful for Ahsoka and Rex because I knew they survived by watching Rebels. Clone Wars probably should have been watched first, but it is what it is. It was still intense. I was very happy with this show.
I will be watching Tales of the Jedi and The Bad Batch (What became of those guys during Order 66 anyway?) next, but first the new season of Black Mirror came out, so I'm going to watch that. And then, probably Pokemon. Yep, it's still going. But Ash's time is coming to an end eventually. That's going to be emotional I'm sure. Once I've gotten the Star Wars stuff out of the way, I will start on Star Trek: TNG, barring any more interruptions, which I'm sure there will be.
One more thing that is game related. So I had to abandon Murderous Muses. I only got to night one and I didn't know what the hell I was supposed to be doing. There was no indication of what I was supposed to do either, so I said screw it. Now I just started Stasis: Bone Totem. Yeah, a new Stasis game. The sequel actually. Knowing how that game is and Cayne, I know I'm going to be in for an intense and messed up time. But The Brotherhood does good work. Horror is not really my jam, but their games are good.
