Squeee! Part 2
The staycation is still EXCELLENT.
- Sunday (evening)
- Watched a bunch of my Netflix movies: Bill Maher's "I'm Swiss," The Haunted Airman, and How to Be. The first was funny (as Bill Maher always is), the second was god-awful, and the third was cute-ish but weird, and I was not happy about Robert Pattinson with shoulder-length, scraggly, Kurt Cobain-type hair. Blech.
- Someone rang my buzzer at about 10:30 last night and I think it was an accident (people push the wrong button once or twice a month, at least), but it caught me off guard and it totally freaked me out. I hid in my room until I was sure that nobody was trying to show up unexpectedly. For some reason, I always think it's going to be someone from my past showing up drunk and ruining my current state of mind (which is better than it has been for a long time). That or someone sneaking in and hurting me.
- Monday
- Got up, had Basic 4 cereal (omg I love that stuff), and saw the matinee showing of A Christmas Carol with Ashley. The 3-D was AMAZING. I'll admit I was stoned at the time, but seriously, it was the best I've ever seen. It felt like the snowflakes were falling right on my head! Anyway, it was a good movie, but even *I* got a wee bit scared at a couple of places, so prepare the little ones if you take them. P.S. We had the entire theater to ourselves during the movie. Don't you just love that?
- After the movie, Ashley and I went back to her place and when Robert got off of work, he made homemade focaccia bread (holy fuck it was gooood) and spaghetti. We lit a fire because it was cold as hell, watched something about Custer's last stand on the History Channel, got really, really high, and enjoyed some major relaxation.
- I was going to go home and go to bed after that, but I ended up seeing New Moon again. I've decided that I LOVE THIS MOVIE.
- Tuesday
- I renewed my lease for another year, and am getting $125 off my December rent, just in time for Christmas! YAY!
- Did a little Christmas shopping at the mall, got some stuff at The Container Store for organizing my closets, filled up and washed my car, and got my hair cut (just a couple of inches and some layering).
- My mom is coming over soon and she wants to spend the night (which she has never done), so we are going to have some dinner (I'll probably take her to Pho on 6th because it's my new favorite place ever) and then see New Moon. I know, I know, it will be my 3rd time seeing it, but I really don't care. Also, my mom's asshole boyfriend will be out of town, so maybe she'll actually be mentally available tonight.
- Wednesday
- I hope to go through my bedroom closets, get rid of old clothing and shoes, organize all the stuff in my memories box (which is now overflowing to the point that I can't put even one more thing in it without the box breaking), and just generally make it prettier and easier to find things.
- I'll be driving to Fort Collins after that to settle in for the Thanksgiving holiday, but I think I'll just stay one night and come home Thursday evening. We'll see.

Man, your staycation has been really busy! Sounds like you're having a good time. Good for you. 3 times for New Moon already, can we say obsessive lol
I *do* love an empty theater! I feel like your staycation is beaming sunshine through the San Francisco fog and making me feel a bit warmer!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Pho is the shizz, pho shizzle! We have it at least once a week.
Happy Thanksgiving!
I miss watching movies high. Everything made sense on whole different levels LOL
Hopefully Christmas Carol will be playing in 3D during December. I want to see it then.
@comet555 - Yep, I'll admit it: obsessive. I saw Twilight in the theaters more times than I care to say. I'm hoping it doesn't come to that with New Moon, but I wouldn't be surprised.
@jim_the_american - YAY!!!!! Happy Thanksgiving to you, too.
@Mom_with_a_Chainsaw - Isn't it fab? Happy Thanksgiving!
@Emancip8 - They would be idiotic to NOT have it playing in 3-D during December. It's a Christmas movie!
Shelly, someone coming over unannounced is one of my WORST FEARS. i will literally hide behind the peephole, not breathing, scared shitless if someone knocks until they go away, or run and hide in my room too. I don't know what it is, but when you're in your home safely and you hear that knock/buzzer when it's the last thing you're expecting.... ahhh!!! i'm freaking out right now thinking about it!
@corradz27 - Wow, I thought it was just me being a nutjob, but apparently not. I wonder how those women in the '50s did it, always keeping their homes perfect just in case someone stopped by for coffee or drinks or dinner? Good god, I would want to kill myself.
So.... did something .. *happen* in this abandoned movie theater? Something that involves copious amounts of popcorn grease and fistfulls of skittles?
