Hello, I love you

I did not get all or even most done today, but it was a full day at work and I've been running nonstop for hours. I'm trying to make some room and rearrange for my new friend Gus Gus, who is applying for the position as my new dog. Everyone tells me it's a done deal and he's already mine. He sneezed today and it was the most adorable sound I've ever heard. Mini is also trying not to love him, but as you can see from the pictures below, that is probably going to be impossible for either one of us.

Fair enough

Sunday I went to see Baby Driver with Jeffrey. It was just as fun as I'd hoped. I didn't read too much into it until the next day when my coworker made me think of how things go when we're in sync in our world. There are certainly moments and sometimes days that line up and everything feels smooth and right. Then there are the other times...

The movie was a nice reminder not to just buy other people's ideas of how you should behave. That's just how they see the world, and being loud or sure doesn't make them right.

That movie was a lot of fun, and has a lovely soundtrack, of course. Plus you know I love heist movies.

Tonight I went to see Valerian with Amanda and Sarah. I've never heard of it, but Amanda grew up with the books. I hope it went over better with her than it did me. It felt like a space movie cobbled together from other space movies, and how original are you if you have to come up with many alien species and they all have two arms and two legs? I thought this one was kind of terrible, but as Sarah put it, "It was a good movie for $5 movie night. I would have been mad if I saw that on regular priced movie night."
