Work & Solo & Dreams
Only just started it, really, (I go in for my third shift tomorrow) but the summer job has been going well so far; a little stressful, and much more fast-paced than any other job I've had before, but not unbearable and time usually passes pretty quickly. So, yeah, I can't complain. And I have made a couple of dumb mistakes, but not as many as I worried I would.
Another perk is that so far I'm usually only scheduled for one or two days a week--I'm sure that will change once the summer picks up, and I could use the extra cash, but for now it's nice to have time to do other things without always feeling rushed or exhausted. My sister and I even had time to make a very spur-of-the moment decision to watch Solo last weekend. It's not my favorite Star Wars movie, not by a long shot, but I walked away much more in love with certain characters (read: Qi'ra) than I expected to be, plus there was a lovely soundtrack and space pirates!(And, even more importantly, girl space pirates!) The ending seems to kinda-sorta-maybe be hooking in for a sequel, too--even though I wasn't especially interested in Han himself, I would like to see more of Qi'ra and Enfys, especially. So who knows.
(Also, some Star Wars-related weirdness: Last night I had a dream that morphed into an hours-long, super-detailed Kylo/Rose epic featuring much bickering and UST and we-care-about-each-other-even-if-we-don't-like-each-other feelings, which was just...very interesting, and I wish I could remember more of the details beyond that, but I'm also wondering if I'm more obsessed with them as a crack pairing than I first realized, if they've literally started showing up in my dreams.)

Do try to ignore all the negative stuff, because even though it isn't perfect (what movie is?) it was so enjoyable and I'm really glad that I didn't go there either expecting to be blown away or ripped off--I was hoping for an interesting, fun movie and that was exactly what I got.
It's a pairing with a lot of cool possibilities, I think! And yeah, who knows? :)
