I got sick. I did indeed, I got sadly sickified. I developed a sore throat Sunday afternoon while at the theater w/my family, my best friend's family, and my Andrew to see The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy (for the second time... yup, still a good movie)... and by Monday morning I had a cold, a flu, the works. Guh-ROSS... and gross I remain to this very moment. Now it's just odd breathing, occasional coughing, and a bit of nasal trouble. Tuesday was the worst... quite torturous. Oh, and did I mention I had no bedroom for all of this? Yes, my brother was using my bedroom b/c the spare bedroom somehow turned into storage. My sister, under a delusion that she would get the loft set up in her room in the two days between my arrival and Ben's, put large pieces of lumber in her room so I couldn't stay there. The good thing about the couch being one's bedroom whilst one is sick is that one needn't get up at all to watch tv.
Did I watch movies? Oh yes.... *rubs hands together villain-fasion* ....yes I did. I watched *drum roll please* Star Wars! I watched all of them except Episode II because we don't own a copy of that one and my punkwad family forgot to rent it for my poor sick self. *sniff*
Wednesday night I mustered my feeble self to go to the midnight premier with my family (the only show we could possibly catch before my brother got shipped back to Iraq). OH MY GOODNESS, can I tell ya, I was SO IMPRESSED!!! Happily surprised was I by how much better this one was than the previous two prequels, and how smoothly it set up for the original three films.
*happy sigh* I can die happy now. It looks like that will not be the case, however, as it seems I am on the mend.
