05.01.22 – It’s Gonna Be May

The morning didn’t start out great. I woke up late, well later than what I would’ve liked. Not surprising since I think I was up late last night. Since I planned on going to the store to do some groceries, I would’ve like to have woken up as early as 6 AM. But I mean, it was fine. I just don’t like going to the store when it’s crowded already.

And Costco was just that. A crowded mess. Hard to believe when I actually went there a few minutes they opened. Too many people. Especially when a lot of them don’t like to follow the keep right unspoken rule. Some of them in the middle of the freaking aisle. So yes, my anxiety was on high alert this morning. It was not fun.

My hun got lucky and the Twilight Saga movies have been removed from viewing without live subscription on Hulu. He dodged the bullet of watching those movies for now. He procrastinated long enough. I’ll keep an eye up on those movies though. I want to watch all the movies with him.

We finished Persona5. And I was right about Akechi being the “Black Mask”. I knew there was something so untrustworthy about that guy. That was a good anime. I liked it. Sad that they won’t be able to go the metaverse anymore. But I’m glad that Morgana still ended up with them. I actually thought that he will be gone since the metaverse was no more since he was not technically from earth. He was such a cutie cat. I would love to have a plushy of him. Well, his metaverse version. Going back to the anime, I love the backstories of each characters. They were fleshed out. Even Akechi’s backstory was pretty awful – still doesn’t excuse what he did. I would’ve liked it even better if Morgana’s story was a bit more explored. It just felt rushed to me to be honest. I still think that Haru was a very random addition.

My hun and I were kind of not in the mood to watch anything in particular, so we started watching Blue Exorcist next. Three episodes in. So far, it’s interesting. I feel like Rin is one of those protagonists that has the potential to be unlikable. He’s very stubborn and loud and impulsive, not to mention hot headed. With the episodes we watched, he was definitely difficult to root for. But I do understand the intense surge of emotions coming from him. Why he needed answers right away. I mean, this information was just kind of thrown at him at rapid speed. And he needs to be okay with those in snap. My hun said he doesn’t change. So we shall see. I’ve been known to give up on animes with unlikable protagonists.

We also watched Beetlejuice today! That was fun. I watched that movie before – a long time ago – and I don’t really remembered much from the movie. So it definitely felt like I was watching for the first time. Michael Keaton in that movie was chef’s kiss. He played Beetlejuice really well. And a young Alec Baldwin, oh god. Such a hottie. The little goth Winona Rider, YES! And that red wedding dress! And now I want that Handbook for the Recently Deceased in my collection.

Today has been relaxing. It was needed. I was not sluggish which was nice for once. But we shall see how I feel tomorrow. Mondays are always difficult for me.
