Finally started feeling better yesterday. My throat isn't 100% but it's pretty damn close. Close enough that I wasn't in screaming pain. Hurray for not being in pain? You reach a point where pain becomes the norm and you don't know how to function when you're not in any. I give my throat another couple of day before it is back to normal but it is better at least. Good enough that I made it through class without any serious issues.

The last two days and today I have only one student in my class. This makes for a very flexible schedule obviously. We started class early and as a result finished early. I was done with class by 1pm. Took a nice nap, then decided I was taking B out on a date. We did dinner and a movie on a Tuesday night. Look out, we're wild.

We went out around 5, had dinner at Chili's because she likes it, then went to the movie theater. We saw Boxtrolls. It is a GREAT movie. However, people piss both of us off. Boxtrolls is from the same people who made Coraline and ParaNorman. Neither of which are really "children's" movies. BT is no exception. It is rated PG and really wasn't suitable for small kids. But there they were - families with kids 3-5 years old expecting some happy movie. The movie is about the extinction of entire species. Yes, it's a movie basically about bigotry, hate, and genocide. Perfect little kid fair. It's dark, it's creepy, and it is for younger kids, scary as hell. Once it started most of the little ones were either bored or terrified. It is also extremely well written and frankly I think the dialog was above the heads of half of the audience. We absolutely adored it.

There were some good previews too like Book of Life. I can't remember some of the others, but there was at least one other movie I want to see.

After the movie we tried to go to Foster's Freeze for dessert but they were closed already. It was after all a Tuesday. We got home around 10 and headed to the bedroom. A perfect date night it was. We both decided we need to do this more often. Not just the sex part, but the whole night for ourselves. On a Tuesday.

On the plus side, I have two days off next week. Not just no class, but completely OFF. I am taking Mon/Tues completely to myself. I am going to get shit done even if it kills me. This was confirmed by my boss yesterday but also came with the warning that I may lose my December to travel. Sigh. I am so fucking close to platinum this year on AA that I am willing to deal with it. I just need like 8,000 more miles after the two Texas trips. And as for Hilton? Fuck. If they don't give me a new super secret level after this year, well, poop.

Okay time to finish up my 1:1 class.
