Horror Prom Parties, Flowers and Writing

Emory and I finally bought a few things for our trip to Colorado. It might be a little chilly when we go, because it will be "autumn" by then, so the trees will start having beautiful colors. We plan to do a bit of hiking, so we got those big hiking hats. We might need new shoes, but by then... one word... tariffs. 

I want to attend Shadyside High Senior Prom'88 Fear Street Experience: Netflix. It's next week, so we really need to get our tickets if we're going to go. It's a fake prom, but when I told Ann, she was really confused. I had to tell her it was a PR event for a movie coming out. This is California! We have events for movies. 😂

I went to a Mother's Day event that allowed us to make flower bouquets for our mothers. I'm so excited. I saw a preview a few days ago, and the flowers were beautiful!! The vase they gave us was glass, which was more than I expected from the event. I had a little help picking out flowers, and you can make your own card. It was really a fun day.

I'm re-watching Peacemaker. I really like the "characters" and think that each actor really brought these people to life. I really couldn't imagine anyone else doing as good a job as they did. Honestly, I might have to watch the show for a third time. This might be my comfort.

I am finally watching DareDevil Born Again. I'm emotional about the opening storyline, but I can't give any details in case someone hasn't watched it yet. Someone pieced together this song with maybe 30 seconds of video of Frank Castle finally realizing who DareDevil is. I have watched that tiny reel a million times. If they keep getting hits... well, I'm 1,000 of those hits. 

We're finally hitting the gym again after two weeks of just running around. We stayed at the commune for a week. That was fun, but it was super cold that week that we were up there and turning the heater on... well, it's a super big place, so we didn't want to run that bill up for them, so we just turned the space heater on. 

Sue said it'd been hot at the commune the following week, so she took Miss Sass-a-Frass up to the other commune that's so much closer to the beach. It's chilly up there, but I love it. It's super close to Ventura Main Street, like maybe 5-10 minute drive. I can't go to the main street without buying something. *le sigh* 

Writing update:

I finally posted chapter 11 of a story and got the best review on that chapter. I felt a little insecure about it because I wasn't sure of the timing of the action/fight. The review I got was so freaking awesome. It really made my day. I copied it and sent it to everyone I knew. I know we're trained not to write back to comments, but I gave in and told this person that they really made my day.

I still haven't posted chapter 6 to F.C. yet. I have it, but again, feeling a little insecure, (like) is the story moving too fast? Do I have enough details? Is it logical? 

I want to work on the story I would love to get published, but again, I'm nervous.
