Yesterday being the boy's birthday, a big group of us of course had to see the movie last night.

Am going to see it next Saturday with my sister B. Cannot wait, but am nervous (quite) about the despair factor which you've described so well. The hope is part of what I adored about the show(s) growing up. So a big yes to this: " I didn't want to witness all of that wretched fear and violence.."

PS. Don't spend too much time cleaning, kay?

PPS. I hate it when Spock dies.... :)

Well, watch it and decide for yourself. I've seen a lot of mixed reactions, and I still don't know quite what to make of it or how I feel about it--it did have some lovely character moments.

I spent only a few hours cleaning yesterday! And then managed to drop the vacuum cleaner on my foot but still went dancing, so. :)

I've read some spoilers and am concerned about the amount of crash/burn/violence which never does well for me. But I will go in with an open mind/heart and take what good I can from it.

Wait, wait!? You dropped the vacuum on your foot? See, I knew they were evil. *hugs* I hope that you'll still be feeling ok today.
