I don't care what plans you had for this weekend, change them and go see Deadpool. Seriously. It was the funniest, greatest movie I have seen in a long, long time. Yes I know it technically opens today, but many theaters started showing it last night and we went to a 7pm showing. Words fail on how incredibly awesome this movie is. As Iron Man remade and revitalized Robert Downey Jr's career, Deadpool has made Ryan Reynolds. Anything he has done in the past has been erased thanks to this 1 hour and 48 minutes.
So my morning started stressed out with no servers. I emailed and texted my boss every half hour from 4:30 until 6 when he finally responded. Luckily everything was up and running by 6:30. My students had no clue how bad I was freaking out prior to their arrival. Four students, all of whom have been in my classes before which made life very easy. During my lunch break, B asked if I pre-ordered Deadpool tickets as we had talked about seeing it in the fancy theater. Since we decided not to see it there, I hadn't ordered tickets. Her friend back in MI was going to a midnight showing so I looked up if it was playing anywhere here early. Lo and behold at 7pm there was a showing near us. Boom, tickets purchased.
Finished up class around 2:40 and then went to the store to get something quick for dinner. We were going to need to leave early for the movie which derailed having a complicated or long cook time dinner. I grabbed a pre-cooked chicken and we had an early dinner around 5. We knew it would be a little crowded at the theater and left the house at about 5:15. Got there at 5:30 and we were first in line. Yay us! By 6 there were at least 100 people behind us. Best decision ever getting there super early. We were first in the theater and had our choice of seats.
Got home around 9:30, grabbed last night's tv shows, and went to bed around 10:30.
Today is day two of class, followed by a weekend of laundry and cleaning. Nothing exciting planned. Our Valentine's Day will be low-key. No big gestures scheduled. I have a gift on order - a treadmill - but it doesn't get here until Monday. And yes, I know how it sounds ordering your wife a treadmill for Valentine's day, but it's what she wanted therefore it's what she gets. I have a couple of smaller things coming too which I can give her on Sunday.
Going out last night helped my mental state. Plus I got paid this morning which is helping even more. I will do bills either tonight or tomorrow and will feel even better.
