Remembering how to be mellow
Well, the second biggest factor in my emotional stress has mellowed out a bit (*ahem* let's just say that was the WORST time of the month I could have gotten that news?) and I'm feeling a bit less distraught. I'm sure if I stopped to really think about it I would still be upset, but I'm not fighting back tears multiple times a day now. Thank goodness.
Last night Bryon cooked dinner-brats with peppers and onions, plus home fries-and somehow convinced me to watch Slither
(mostly because Nathan Fillion is in it). As Bryon said, it's a horror movie, but it doesn't take itself very seriously. There were plenty of really gross parts during which I was covering my eyes and burrowing my head behind Bryon's arm, but overall it was okay and there were also some really funny parts (squid stickers!!). I would probably venture a peek at a Slither 2 if one ever came out.
I didn't know before watching this movie that Jenna Fischer was in it, or that James Gunn directed it. And yet, it made a lot of sense. A while ago I accidentally found Nathan Fillion's MySpace page,* which is a miracle in itself considering that I avoid MySpace as much as possible. He had both Jenna Fischer and James Gunn listed as friends, although sadly, had just made a statement about their recent divorce. I guess Slither must be how they met, or are they all in Slither because they already knew each other? ...Side note: Perhaps the most amusing thing about Nathan Fillion's MySpace page is the fact that he took a Firefly character quiz and ended up as Kaylee. XD
Anyway, it was a pretty calm evening. We found Support Your Local Sheriff
on TV, which is one of my favorite movies ever (and Mike hadn't seen it). I read for a little bit, and went to bed fairly early. I'm hoping for just as relaxing a night tonight.
