gottawonderToday I am grateful for:
Decent sleep, though lately it feels like I rarely get uninterrupted "whole" sleep.
When I got up, my Sweetie said we should go to the city, since Dan wasn't working today. We hadn't discussed this earlier, but okay.
I mainly wanted to go back to the fabric store to find a material to line the cape I'm making, so we did.
I did find some material that I think will look great, and also some other stuff. A yard of material to make tea towels, as it was this nice smooth cotton that I especially like for some reason.
Then we went to buy tickets for the movie (Project Hail Mary) early so that it didn't sell out before we got there (if we just got them at the door).
Then we walked around the box stores near the theater. We went into Winner's just for entertainment.
Then I went into Sephora and did find things. I haven't been there in forever.
Then we went to a Barburrito which was okay, at least it checks off the boxes. It's not as good a chain as Mucho Burrito, but it did the job.
Then we went to the theater, and we had opted for the Imax version. We hadn't been to one in years, and it seemed like a good movie to see in that format.
Our seats were way too close to the screen (only the front rows were left), and we were able to move back one row after a while, which was oddly quite a lot better for only being one row back.
The show said it started at 7pm, we sat down about a quarter to seven, and the movie didn't start until about twenty minutes after seven. So over half an hour of way too loud, choppy and annoying movie trailers and ads for other things that were driving me absolutely mad. I keep saying we need to be smarter about just sitting outside the theater and sticking our heads in to see if it's the movie yet, but we never seem to do that.
Anyhow, the movie itself was very good. Wonderful to look at, excellent effects, and though a lot of it wasn't improved for being on a bigger screen, the space shots were great at that size.
Of course the science wasn't perfect, as many will point out, but it was more of a buddy movie anyhow.
I enjoyed it, and found it to be quite immersive.
