Overdue happies.
Wednesday's happy was that I started catching up on Arrow (first watching the ep from before Christmas where Oliver "died"; yes I was that far behind).
Thursday's was...hell, I don't know. Oh, Big Bang Theory was so good in dealing with the actress who played Mrs. Wolowitz's death.
Friday's was that I got my art for my Derek/Stiles big bang and it's gorgeous.
Saturday's was that I went to my first conference KU game since 1990 and OMG so much fun! Yes, the refs sucked and we tried to give it away again, letting TCU back to within five points in the second half after going up by sixteen, but we were above the student section at the north end so while they stood the whole time the sane adults in the six rows in front of us sat down, dad enjoyed himself (he hasn't gone to a game in about fifteen years), two of the seats in our row were empty so we had plenty of room, and just...really, I'll say it again. Any fan of college basketball needs to see a game at Allen Fieldhouse in their lifetime. It doesn't matter what game--exhibition to playing the #1 team in the country--the place is packed, the crowd is loud and into it, and it's just wonderful.
Also, while we had some freezing rain overnight, it all melted as soon as the sun came out around 8:00 and it reached 51 degrees by the time we went to the game. :)
And I posted my big bang and it got good reception.
Sunday was bitterly cold and windy. I hadn't done the dark load of laundry so was reduced to wearing a shorter knit skirt, and I don't wear hose, so my legs were bare going to church. A little girl asked how I could go without tights. *g* We had a visiting minister, a social justice Christian, who gave a very moving sermon about being active and fighting for change as "we don't have time to hate". I teared up.
Today's happy, though, was seeing Kingsman, a truly brilliant movie. Very violent and raunchy (pretty much every third word was fuck) but so worth seeing. Samuel L. Jackson continues to prove that he can play any kind of character, Colin Firth just keeps getting more handsome as he ages, and Mark Hamill even had a cameo.
Also, you will never listen to "Freebird" the same again. *g*
Sadly the weekend, as always, went too quickly. *sigh*
And now I'm watching more Arrow eps and I have the KU game on tape to watch again to see if the refs calls really were that bad.
