Reading Spoilers
Dec. 18th, 2017 01:06 pm I haven't see Star Wars: Last Jedi yet and I have no idea when I will. All through the weekend, I did my due diligence and avoided being spoiled. Then, this afternoon, I thought: why? I kind of want to know what I'm getting into, frankly, if/when I go. YEAH, you saw it. There's an "if" there. I liked Star Wars: Force Awakens a lot, but I walked away from that movie with some things in my heart that are going to make any follow-ups... difficult.
Poe and Finn are never going to be boyfriends. This makes me unaccountably sad. I kind of don't even care if they give me more hints of subtext in this current movie, I now want TEXT and only a moron thinks that's going to actually happen in the Star Wars franchise any time soon. ( I think this is a spoiler since I found it under someone else's cut )
I was in the minor minority in that I liked Kylo Ren. I liked him the moment he walked on the stage and I never stopped liking whiny-baby Kylo. Not once. From what I've gathered, I might start to hate him in this next film. This makes me seriously consider just not going.
So, I started reading the spoilers looking for reasons to want to go. I haven't found any yet. If you've seen it and you want to tell me why I should go, drop a note in the comments.
My weekend was otherwise nothing to write home about. Shawn and I made rosettes--well, okay, I made them, while Shawn kept me company. I spaced out and accidentally only made a single batch--apparently the recipe tells me to double it, but I didn't read all the words. (A perennial problem, honestly.)

I spent today wrapping the last of the Solstice gifts. My family gives gifts a bunch of times during this holiday season, so I'm actually FAR from being done with holiday shopping and wrapping. But, at least this part of the holiday is ready to roll.
I work tonight at Shoreview, so it's a good thing that Shawn made double batches of lasagne yesterday, too. We'll just have leftovers, since I have to dash out at 4:30pm.
