Busy, busy weekend...

[cairistiona]

I'm taking a semi-off-the-grid weekend, just because of being busy! Good busy, what with my sister visiting and shopping and a taekwondo tournament and an evening last night watching Captain America: The Winter Soldier again. But yesterday we had to leave early, early in the morning for the tournament (which we had to leave early because she's having trouble with her left leg... sees the doctor on Monday for that. I'm guessing a pinched sciatic but have no idea really).  Anyway, what with one thing and another, I didn't have a moment to post the Aragorn-a-day! Hate when that happens. I'll definitely be posting it today, fear not.

After watching Cap2 last night, I'm still more than ever fascinated and obsessed with the Winter Soldier character. And adoring Anthony Mackie's the Falcon character. The entire family is firm in our conviction that Sam Wilson needs to be in every future Marvel movie ever, no matter what. We also had a laugh-til-we-cry moment when Dink grabbed the bobbleheads at the "Who the hell is Bucky" scene and cuddled them and whispered to all of them, "It's going to be all right...." and then proceeded from that point on to watch the rest of the movie while by turns cuddling, comforting and acting out the scenes as they played out, complete with commentary that seemed to run mostly along the lines of "Aww, sad puppy Bucky!! and sad puppy Cap!!!". She then informed me that I must buy all the Marvel movie bobbleheads. (This after every time we had to stand in line at the mall Saturday, she'd turn to me and say, "I'm with you to the end of the line, Mom.")

And she accuses *me* of being obsessed.

Good Sunday to you all!

She does have it bad. Yesterday afternoon she found the screechy Winter Soldier theme of the soundtrack on youtube and played it while she moved Bucky bobble menacingly toward Cap bobble.... until she realized that the clip was 6 minutes long, at which time she turned it off and said, "I can't do this for six entire minutes."

Cap was relieved.

Yay! I see you're having a blast. I hope the doctor soon fixes Dink's leg!

I hope so too. It's a worry, no mistake.

Dinks is GREAT!!! Shall have to start watching these... and get some bobbleheads.. or can I use my bears instead?

LOVELY... thanks for telling us. Made me have a great big smile that did.

I would think you could use anything your imagination suggests. *g* I do think you'd enjoy both of the Cap movies... lots of explosions and stuff but some really good humanity drama going on. First one is a wee bit cheesy but only enough to make me feel a little amused nostalgia. And you know how I feel about the second. *g*

Your daughter is HILARIOUS. And a genius, to have created a channel for all those H/C feels during the movie. :D

I'm going to have to steal the whole standing-in-line comment, too, because that is Pure Gold.

It'll be all your fault if I start collecting bobble heads. ;D
