Nothing here but my musings about daily life, books, anime, and food.
I finally got to hang out with my hun today! We haven’t been able to sit and hang out since Wednesday last week! So we watched a movie, She’s Out of My League. And we both enjoyed it! My hun says it was a good movie. And I agree with him. Sure it was a typical rom-com but I really like the fact that you don’t have the typical pretty boy as the leading man. I am so tired of it. This was a really solid movie, the characters were relatable, and the insecurities were real. We did not like Kirk’s family. For the whole movie or the whole screen time they were in, it was just horrible.
After watching the movie, we just talked since we haven’t really talked lately. We just ended up catching up. I talked to him about Beastars. And he talked to me about the games he played with his friends. I talked to him about the movies that I had playing in the background while I was reading. And then we watched some trailers of movies that we are interested in watching – Bird Box, Ava, Lucy, Limitless, Death Race.
Planning on reading after I post this – maybe 50 more pages. We’ll see. I need to start looking for my next read after this. I’m thinking of nonfiction – Born a Crime or Crying in H Mart or Know My Name. I have a few options, but I also keep looking at Darling Girl and The Verifiers. At least I have options.
I decided not to go to work. Aside from the fact that maintenance needed to fix something in the apartment this morning, I was just lazy. So when the apartment office called me yesterday to say that maintenance will stop over this morning, I just went for it, why would I let an opportunity not be at work pass?
So…my hun and I decided to hang out early. I asked him if we could watch this anime called Library Wars. I like it. What’s not to like? It’s about protecting books from censorship, it has a military feel to it, and it has action. Again, what’s not to like? Not to mention the artwork is definitely good. I mean sure it’s anime, but the artwork is different compared to regular anime we are used to watching. I was worried about suggesting the anime to my love, to be honest. But he seems to be enjoying it. So that was nice. I get to enjoy this anime with hun instead of me watching it alone.
We also watched John Wick 2. It was good. I mean, I preferred the first installment over this one but that is okay. I am not saying that the second one was awful, I just liked the first one better. I personally feel like the rule that John Wick broke at the end of the movie was just done so that a third installment can be made. Aside from that, I pretty much enjoyed the movie, I mean it’s freaking Keanu Reeves.
I’m going to try and read today. I read 50 pages last night, so I am hoping to do that again. I mean, I have nothing planned at this point anymore since my hun will be hanging out with the boys until he goes to work later.
I also added two new pages on the website – Foodie and Books. To help at least navigate the blogs.
I am not a fan of meetings in general, but what’s worse? Back-to-back meetings when I do not even have the time to do a bio break. Yeah, no thank you. But this company just likes to do back-to-back meetings. It gets annoying to be honest. Anyway, moving on.
Got to hang out with my love today after work. We caught up first since we did not hang out yesterday. We ended up just watching a movie after – The Lost City. We enjoyed it. Sure there were some cheesy parts, but I am not complaining – I love the cheese. Daniel Radcliffe did really well with his character, Fairfax. Of course, Brad Pitt was also in the movie – so gorgeous. The only thing that I wish is that they should not have dumbed down Channing Tatum’s character. I feel like it was not needed for the movie, to be honest.
I am going to try and read tonight. I tried reading yesterday while my hun was hanging out with his friends, but I could not focus. Three sentences in and my attention wandered – reading was a no-go yesterday. So I will try tonight, see if my attention does not waver.
I mean, by the title alone, you can already tell how my day went. Granted, I was still productive and did what I planned to do which is good. But really the rest of the morning was spent in bed. With my dog. I also made some carne asada fries at home. I really need to a lot more cooking at home. It’s just cheaper.
Date night was good! I really enjoyed the two movies we watched.
First movie was Tropic Thunder. I have not seen this movie in years. My hun said he wanted to watch a bad comedy and this movie was suggested. But a certain word was used in that movie that I have not heard in years, and it made me uncomfortable just a little bit. The movie made me laugh. And honestly, that movie would not fly anymore. A lot of people do not understand satirical comedy nowadays and a lot more sensitivities now too.
Second movie was Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Ah, we really enjoyed this movie. Tails is just so cute, Knuckles is just broody and naive, and Sonic is just full of energy! I love it. My hun nerded out a little bit – by that, I mean a lot – when something happened to Sonic, and when he saw the end credit scene. My love is just too adorable when he’s nerding out.
We also got to squeeze in an episode of House. And honestly, I’m getting tired of this Tritter arc. I really have issues with story arcs that is not needed! I just cannot. And yes, I debated of skipping the episodes, but at where we are at right now episode-wise, we will be missing a lot. My love said that Tritter arc has 16 more episodes to go. And I was like damn it! There is just no way we will be skipping 16 episodes! We will be missing a lot! I hate it. I hate it.
Tomorrow, we have a movie lined up – The Lost City with Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum. We watched the trailer earlier and it seemed interesting. I’m pretty sure we would enjoy that movie. But then again, a Sandra Bullock movie is always good.
I won’t bore you with the mundane BS that happened at work. It was really nothing exciting. I did however manage to read a few pages of A Dirty Job at work during my lunch break. And you know what, I find the book interesting. I am only in chapter four but the pages I read were dripping with dark humor. And I love it.
I’m glad this work week is almost over. I’ve been pretty done with this week early on. Well, I’m always done with any work week before it even starts so we can just leave it at that.
I’m glad I get to hang out with my love tonight. We did not get to spend time together yesterday – an emergency on his end. And he is working a double shift tomorrow. Not going to lie, I was a bit worried earlier when he said he would be playing some video games with his friends. I got a little scared that he would tell me that he will have boys’ night instead. That sounds horrible, I know. And I am not the type to stop him from hanging out with his friends either, I just miss him is all.
We got to watch Monsters, Inc. It was a rewatch for both of us. But we got to enjoy the movie together this time. And we both got an allergy attack when Sulli brought Boo back to her room. Him more than me though.
We also watched an episode of House. And it was torture every single time that that policeman was on screen. And yes, I took my headphones off and I did not look at the screen. Yeah, can you tell I do not like that storyline? I said that I get annoyed with unnecessary storylines. Doesn’t help that I can’t stand his voice, and the way he always chews a freaking gum. Yeah no. Huge pass. I let my hun summarize what he says, although I really don’t care.
We also watched an episode of Rosario + Vampire. And my hun enjoys guessing what monster the villain is on the episode. And he was right most of the time. What a nerd. I love it.
I will not rehash my day at work. Nothing really exciting happened there. Same shit different day. It’s Monday. How good my day could really be?
Anyway, I have been itching to watch MTV Siesta Key. But I don’t have cable TV and it seems like this show is not available on any of the streaming platforms I have. The show is available on Paramount+ unfortunately. So when my hun told me that apparently he has Paramount+ and we can watch Invader Zim, I was so excited because I CAN WATCH THE SHOW!
So we ended up watching three episodes of Invader Zim and I already have a favorite character – Gir! He is so adorable!!! So cute!!! And when he wears his disguise…OMG! My heart. The show is interesting. I liked how Zim was sent to a planet they don’t know (Earth) to die. And I would like to see how he plans to invade Earth – since that was his directive.
We also watched an episode of KenIchi. Personally, I’m enjoying it. I really like a person’s journey to reach a goal – in Kenchan’s story, his journey to be strong.
I am planning to read tonight. I was not able to read last night…I passed out as usual. So tonight, I will read before sleeping.
