The Big Cheese
I have hereby dubbed it "80s Day" at Sourcebook Central 2.0. Seeing as I have the house to myself this evening and am in dire need of cheering up, I've basically been sitting down in front of all those cheesy 80s movies that I try not to subject ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dodgyhoodoo to because I know he hates them and kind of makes fun of me for watching them. Which is all well and good, seeing as how I do tend to feel the same way about his Giant Monster B-Movie fetish. In any case, it all pretty much follows this whole "The Big Cheese" cheesy 80s music theme night deal we used to have over at DeMontfort Uni.
So it was Footloose followed by Pretty in Pink (which I'd never seen before but, y'know, 80s teen rom-coms were pretty much all along the same formula anyway), and I am now moving on to Pump Up the Volume. Depending on what time it is after, I may or may not watch Heathers.
This, I figure, will adequately distract me from the fact that I can progress no further in FFXI without some serious help (at least to get to the next spot I need to get to for levelling BLM) and possibly even get me writing. I did try, but beginnings are my weakest point, particularly when there's a whole universe that I understand but the reader doesn't. It's aggravating. But I'm sure I'll get past the block somehow.
As for what I'm going to do about dinner ... that's a toughie but I'll forage. I'm sure I can find some raw ingredients or something somewhere in the house. I am continuing this "thinking positive" thing because frankly, it's got to work sometime. (Which is a cyclic argument - thinking positive about thinking positive in hopes that the thinking positive about the thinking positive will make the thinking positive actually work - but hey.)
