At my 10th high school reunion, I stayed with my brother in Dallas. My friend came along for the ride. My brother had 3 DVDs, Darktown Strutters, Off the Charts, and another documentary about the Sex Pistols, I don't currently recall the title. The first one we watched was Off the Charts. If any of you remember how in the back of comics they'd have all of those ads and there was always one to convert your poems into music, these song poems and the people who write them are the subjects of this documentary. One of those song poems was "Night Whispers." There was a sweet old man who wrote and then "sang" "Night Whispers." One of those really bizarre but endearing moments.
Meanwhile, the non-relative person in question I interacted with very briefly yesterday. I had once asked him if he wanted me to invite him to certain movies events, and he said yes. One of the events was scheduled for tomorrow. Much to my surprise, he said he'd go even though he wasn't really that much of a fan of the movie. It seemed to be a kind gesture. I was so happy when the 3 of us got invited to go--my other friend who's a HUGE fan of the subject, even does improv based on the subject matter, was also going to go. It's nice having someone else cosplay with you to these events! Later on last night, I was asked if I like a certain series, and I had only seen a couple of episodes of it before, and I liked those, so I told him that. (There were several years when I was extremely active in different things, so television from a chunk of about 10-15 years, I never watched.) I had always meant to watch this series, but I never got around to doing it. He said that he wanted to watch it, and I said I did too, and he said that maybe we can do that, and we both agreed we liked the idea. It made me feel very happy that we can try to be friends again. This time, though, I'm much more cautious and reserved.
Then, today happened. I had my photoshoot ALL day--left the house at 8:45 this morning, didn't get back until after 5pm. Such a long time! These generally never take that long. While I was out there, I got an email about the special movie. Due to the guest star's schedule, the event has been moved to Saturday, the one day my friend said he couldn't come. -_- There has never been one of these on a Saturday, and this was even discussed, and then here it's moved to Saturday. I felt really bummed about it. I was actually looking forward to this tomorrow since I'm going to be by myself here. Even my cat is gone for his blood sugar evaluations. It's going to be so quiet. A lonely quiet. I rather like the company of my cat, and being out here, it's nice knowing someone else is in the house even if we don't cross paths that often. It'll be really quiet here the next few days. There isn't even anyone to invite over of those I'd consider asking. Tomorrow would have been really nice and fun. As for watching the series, I don't know if it will ever happen or not, I hope it does, but I don't want to feel disappointed if it doesn't happen. I'm going to try to not think about it unless it's brought up again.
It felt so nice outside today. Warm with a really good feeling wind. Now, to look at today's pictures. I hope they're good!
The Masters followed by the Norse,
Their tactics used were sinister.
The peasants fought with brute force,
Upon the Masters were called the minister.
