Today was Eva’s annual Winter Dance recital and fundraiser at one of the local school. Each of the classes do a little routine to Christmas music and it is a lot of fun. It is an hour long and afterwards they do a raffle. I was there for the show and then headed home to get some sleep. This has been a poor sleeping weekend. Luckily it is the last weekend of work before a weekend off. I’m looking forward to not being at work for a little bit.
Yesterday I picked up new phones for Allison and I. She has upgraded to the iPhone 8 Plus and I did the Google Pixel 2 XL. They are great new phones. However, I need to spend more time with mine because I thought that I took a video of Eva’s dance but I only turned on the video camera. I totally messed up the video. However, the camera will take motion pictures which means that it takes a picture and also takes a short video before and after so it is only a second or so. I haven’t figured out how to share it correctly yet.
Today I met Brian with Built from Bricks over at the movie theater. He bought tickets on the day that they came out. I was lucky that he bought me one, too. He got the first two tickets for the theater and we were the only people in the theater for weeks leading up to the movie. Then this morning he said that it was sold out. That is a good thing since I wanted to see it with a crowd and feel the energy of the moviegoers. I know that I can never, ever recreate the incredible excitement of seeing Thor Ragnarok with the cast and creators. That was incredible. But I wanted to get an excited audience and feel that energy.
While the movie was really good, I enjoyed it a lot. I look forward to seeing it again with Eva. Eva and I talked about the movie all the way to Dance rehearsal tonight. I don’t want to give anything away about the movie but I will give you some of my thoughts after you check out this new featurette.
