Trying to stay positive and I don’t know how you fuckers do it. Every day is a struggle to care, but I like to tell myself I am getting stronger. Who knows.
Read in English class that there is a diffefrence between “everyday” and “every day” and “everyone” and “every one”. I’ve forgotten already. Just White people being White as far as I’m concerned. But I do support the whole less vs fewer thing now that I understand the difference. Don’t necessarily think we need both words, but at least the difference makes sense.
Classes are still going fine. Kickboxing is great. We had a third workout day today and it was not as terrible for me, but my lack of cardio health is very apparent. I am also super inflexible. I miss being in a dojo. Once I get a childcare job next month, I am going to look for one here in Detroit.
There’s a really beautiful girl in kickboxing, like just amazing. Her smile, eyes, face structure, perfect breasts, and a wonderfully shaped ass are to die for. She’s very lively, smart, and geeky. We talk each class and I made her a mixtape and gave her my number. She never uses it, but told me to add her on FB. I don’t like doing that, adding people I barely know, but it’s her preference. We had to run a 1.5 mile and email our teacher the results, so I asked her if she wanted to do so together. She agreed. Afterwards, I asked her out but she said she had a lot of stuff to do at home. I had asked her out a week or so before, the run was last Wednesday, and she turned me down because she wanted to go to a gaming session with her friends.
It hurt when she said that even though it was perfectly reasonable. I felt bad because of how it sounded. “The dance sounded fun, but I really wanted to do something with friends this weekend.”
This was back on July 4. I am not her friend, just a classmate she has only known for 3 weeks, but it hurt anyway cos I like her so much and want to know her better. I am getting the vibe that is totally not interested in dating me, but she hasn’t been demonstrative in either direction, so I will wait and see. My original idea was to just talk to her, be friendly, then ask her out at the end of the 8 week course. That way, if she said no, we wouldn’t have to worry about things being awkward during class. I will stick with that idea and try to keep my infatuation in check.
Does it make me a “hater” to be so dead set against DC Comics films that I refuse to even watch the trailers for Suicide Squad and Man of Steel 2? Yeah, probably, and I am cool with that.
I hated Man of Steel, think Ben Affleck is a terrible choice for Batman, hate the idea of rebooting Batman instead of carrying on with Joey Levitt, and think Suicide Squad is a bad idea at a bad time. Plus, there’s all the disrespect Warner Bros is showing their TV shows by not connecting SS movie to Arrow and then making a Flash movie that is not connected to the TV show of the same name. And don’t get me started on this nonsense with Super Girl and Teen Titans being on separate networks from each other AND from Arrow and The Flash. PLUS, Teen Titans won’t be connected to any of the Justice League movies despite Robin being the leader and initial reports claiming Batman will be mentioned though likely not seen.
It’s like, could DC/WB be any more dysfunctional?
So, no, I have absolutely no interest in any upcoming DC movies, especially Batman vs. Superman, but maybe a tiny bit in the actual Justice League movie, if it ever actually comes out.
I gave Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell a chance on BBCA. Just as meandering and poorly paced as the novel. I have not watched episodes 3 or 4 yet, and not sure I will. I can’t comment on the adaptation since it’s been so long since I read the novel, but as a series, it just has not drawn me in. If I had not read the book, I would have given up after the first episode.
The only thing I care about from San Diego Comic Con is the exclusive toys that will soon be available at online retailers.
I told an old friend I might be in Atlanta in August and they asked if I was ever coming back to Dragon Con. No, definitely not.
My director never got back to me as to if he was able to get my volunteer badge reinstated, and that really hurt. I have never liked cons in general, but Dcon has always chaffed me, so I would never buy a ticket. There are probably one or two people I know on door duty who would still let me in if I asked, but I don’t even care to do that. So, no, no dragon con for me.
I smiled when I read Hannibal was cancelled. You brought it on yourself, Mr. Fuller.
Went to a small beach last weekend, at a lake. It was fun. Played with my friend and her kids then her girlfriend and her kid showed up and they joined in. Lots of splashy fun. Ate at Big Boy afterwards.
I don’t like watching TV. It’s too much work. I try hard not to get involved with more series because it’s just not worth it for me. Most recently, I allowed Arrow and The Flash into my quiver. Before them, there was Agents of SHIELD, Sherlock, Call the Midwife, and sometimes Doctor Who. Doctor Who has gone real downhill since season 6 so I don’t put much effort into catching it anymore. I like Peter Calpaldi, but hate Clara and found season eight’s stories to be lackluster. Missy was awesome, though.
I am considering giving Humans a shot, is the point here, but I don’t really want to. I gave Orphan Black a chance a year or two ago, but was utterly bored by the first 2 episodes so gave up. The story was not remotely engaging and the characters were just insanely flat and uninteresting. If you only have 8 episodes in a season, you should really be able to convince me to care about your characters before the end of episode 102.
I never saw Tomorrowland, Fast 7, or something else I wanted to see in theaters and that makes me sad. I also wanted to see Ex machina a second time, but alas. I saw Inside Out. It was ok. Don’t think it is as spectacular as folks are making it out to be, but that’s White people for ya.
