Honey Honey ah hah honey honey

Yesterday I spent the best afternoon of madness in years!

I decided to go to the cinema to watch the Tuesday afternoon showing of Mama Mia. Yes yes, I know, everyone must have seen this by now, and yes I know it is rather tragic to see this by myself. However, I decided that it would be fun. I fully expected the cinema to be empty and on my journey there, upon discovering i was running late, I thought the showing may even get cancelled. This was not the case.

I bought myself the afternoon bargain ticket, topped it off with a diet coke and popcorn combo, and headed into the screen. Upon turning the corner into the screen I nearly dropped the popcorn. The cinema was packed!

Now here I know you are gasping at this amazing fact.... but wait... there is more!

The cinema was nearly full, and full of OAPs! it was insane! I tried very hard not to laugh and made my way to my favourite free seat (the one in second row, in the middle, with the bars infront of the seat) and sat down chuckling to myself. The trailers had already started but I was to busy laughing to enjoy them.

The laughing continued from almost the first moment of the film. I loved this film. I know i shouldn't, but i loved it! I'm trying to think of the last time i had the same feeling at the cinema... its that feeling where you aren;t sure whether it is actually the fact it really is good and funny that is making you laugh... or whether it is SO awful, that it is good and funny!

Watching Meryl Streep dance, and hearing Peirce Brosnan sing are two things that will stay with me for a long time. On top of this, the first song Honey Honey made me smile so much i couldn't eat my popcorn. How on earth they were allowed to write a lyric that goes "honey honey, let me feel it, uh huh, honey honey" I will never know!

After this afternoon of hilarity I left the cinema for Ikea... And I am now the proud owner of the third rug from Ikea bought specifically for my lounge. It is a shaggy black rug, which my cats now LOVE! they roll around on it and seem to pretend it is some kind of hunting ground, where they have schizophrenic episodes of jumping and pouncing!

Aside from all of this I have now realised it is mid week and I have not done as much work as i would like, so am going to make a concerted effort today. This will, however, be hampered by the fact i need to go out to buy more cat food and facepaint for my friday night halloween party. I'm currently thinking about being a Bad Fairy in my New Rock boots and stripy tights, but am also swayed by recreating the Elliot in ET halloween costume-think he was supposed to be a zombie- as this involves black clothes a grey hoodie and face paint! easy! I also have an idea forming in my mind whereby I wear leggings and balck longsleeve top and put ripped white trousers and top over the top of them to kinf of look like a mummy/zombie! I really have no idea.. ideas welcome please!

Ok for now it is time to have breakfast and think more.
