Concert tickets & shirts acquired! Movie tickets...not. Plus bonus fangirl daydreaming!
--I think I'm finally resigned to the notion that 2D Civil War tickets won't be on sale until next week, just like most movies opening that weekend. (Resigned, but not pleased. >.<)
--In happier ticket-related news, Metric are playing the Halifax Jazz Festival in July and
scruloose and I decided to go. (I waffled, because I don't know if/how much I'll like their music live, and more significantly, being out among throngs of people in Halifax, specifically, often sets off my anxiety. But I figured I'd rather go and risk not not loving it than skip the concert and regret it afterwards. So.) My familiarity with Metric's catalogue is extremely erratic--I know Fortunes pretty well, and some of Synthetica and some of Pagans in Vegas, and that's about it. Guess I should brush up.
--Sometimes one needs a little happy place to retreat to while at work (other than KittenCam, which may go without saying). Today mine was having this pic from
StitchersTV open in a tab at work and blithely ignoring that it's Stitchers because Scags is wearing a perfectly lovely Georgia Mason-appropriate expression in that shot. *wistful*
--On the gleeful-dorks front, Ginny,
wildpear, and I ordered Murder Squash Song shirts from Maggie Stiefvater's Society6 page. (And we really lucked out with the timing, because yesterday I reminded Ginny that the shirts existed and weren't black-only [alas, not black at all, nor rich colors, which would've made me and
wildpear much happier; neither of us were able to find a color we loved, but wanted the shirts anyway], and then it turned out that, yesterday only, the shirts were on sale and had free international shipping.)
