Fantastic Days Lead to Fantastic Nights
Today has been fantastic. Worked with my bestie today, and now I'm waiting on her to arrive here with my little puddin' pop (my goddaughter) so we can watch Pan's Labyrinth. I wanted to see it in the theatre but never got around to it. Our theatre here is very small, so the good movies are generally something you have to leave town to see, like at the theatre at the mall an hour and a half away. Mr. Bosseh' and I went to do some shopping and catch a movie, my choice of movie, but he shot down Pan's Labyrinth because he didnt' want to read subtitles.
Here's how it went down:
Bosseh': Ooh, Pan's Labyrinth! That looks good!
Mr. Bosseh': Wait a second, isn't that in Spanish?
Bosseh': Yup!
Mr. Bosseh': That means I have to read subtitles.
Bosseh': No it doesn't. You're Mexican and speak Spanish. It's a movie out of the part of Mexico your family came from, so there shouldn't be any dialect conflict.
Mr. Bosseh': But the words... I will want to read them. I dont' want to read a movie.
Bosseh': Fuck you in the face, man.
I don't remember what we saw that night, but it was not Pan's Labyrinth. And I wasn't a happy Bossesh'. At least he bought me a pretzel in consolation.
I've got some time between now and when bestie shows up, so I'm going to write a bit. I got the groundwork laid out for my first entry at 10iloveyou, and now I'm going in and fleshing it out with some sarcasm, some sneers, and more description. Next comes finding a beta who is tops with characterization and knows the difference between canon and A/U, and can accept a character being a little out of character from canon. Time changes people, man, and some people can't accept that.
