I am very happy with my new desk setup. I promised a picture and I will take one later today and include it in tomorrow's post. The last time I included a picture of anything was a couple years back when a certain person left scratch marks all on my back. Ah those were the days. Sex, single, depression on a constant basis. Yeah, why wouldn't I miss them?
Yesterday was pretty good. Got up, meandered on here, found a couple new shows for B to watch, waited for her to wake up. Once she was up we went out around 11 to go see Avengers. The movie was at 1 but we needed to grab a couple of things at the mall before hand. Got into the theater at 12:30 and it was wonderfully empty. By the time the movie started there were maybe 5 other people in the theater with us. This is why you go to an early afternoon movie on a Monday.
As for the movie itself? I enjoyed it. I do not understand everyone's complaints about Hulk and Black Widow. I think they are reading more into than they should. Overall I felt it was similar to Two Towers. Let me explain. Fellowship sets up the story, Return of the King is the triumphant huge bring it all together end, Two Towers is the one that gets the story arc where it needs to be. Doesn't stand alone well but without it you can't have the other two. That's how I feel about Ultron. It is a movie that has to exist because they have to setup all the other characters (Falcon, Vision, Scarlet Witch), get one more Infinity Stone out there, and preface the feud that's about to come between Cap and Tony. SO without Ultron there are no other movies but by itself it's a little disjointed. It doesn't really feel whole. It's a good movie but I felt it was serving to tell a bigger story the whole time (which it is).
What I COULD have done without is the 40 minutes of fucking commercials before the movie. It used to be you had movie trivia and behind the scenes stuff. Now they don't even pretend, it's blatant fucking commercials for Target and Toyota and so much other crap it pisses me off.
Between previews, commercials, and other bullshit, a 1 pm movie let us out at 4. Got home, made a roast for dinner, relaxed together watching some TV and I ended up falling asleep on the couch around 10. B woke me up and sent my ass to bed.
I'm old. Shoot me now.
