I finally printed my Studio Movie Grill passes, so tomorrow I get to see Magic Mike, and only pay for my food and drink. It is going to be SO MUCH FUN. SO MUCH.
I did not talk about this sooner (I don't know why), but last Saturday night was amazing. I went karaoke-ing with Chelsea, Tina, and Liz (
waderapspoorly, who I have known online for a decade), and then we went back to Chelsea's and watched Anchorman. It was awesome. The only terrifying thing was that I learned that I know the first verse and chorus of "What Makes You Beautiful", and I've become even more convinced/worried that next I'm going to be trying to score tickets to their show next summer and I'll start fighting thirteen year olds for Zayn.
Also, I did go see Brave with Chelsea, and I had a little feelings-splosion about it. Merida and Elinor's relationship kind of reminded me of how my relationship was with my mom for the longest, in a way, so I definitely got teary at a few points. Merida's brothers were little terrors, and awesome. (Also, the animation is amazing. All the work put into Merida's hair? RIDICULOUS.)
On Tuesday I saw Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter! There were some guys in the theater who were really into it. Every time there was a particularly epic vampire kill, they would cheer. It was fun, really okay, but I have to say that I like how the book ended much more than the movie. (The book's one of my favorites of everything I've read this year so far; I still want to read Unholy Night by the same author.) I'm not usually the biggest slash fangirl, but I came out of the movie wanting to read any and all Henry/Abe that I could find, and any Henry/Abe/Mary that I could find too. Of course, that would require Mary knowing about everything far sooner than she did. But I don't care, it was entirely too adorable when she used Abe's hat to kiss him. TL;DR: read the book and love it. Watch the movie, have fun, and then gripe to me about the difference.
Since I finished talking about moviegoing: I know some of you have already seen this, but I'm still enjoying it: INTO THE DOME, MOTHERFUCKER. There are things I would change (Toilet of Shame, begone! And the older population can be JUST as chatty at theaters as teenagers), but overall, would LOL at again.
And this post has gone on for a while, so I'll close with an Avengers gif:

So far, this has got to be the clearest version of this gif I've seen so far.
