Arghgh.

Migraine headache and slept wrong on my left eye last night; it's taken most of an hour for the vision to go back to normal. The migraine started last night around ten and hasn't really gone away despite acetaminophen use. (Excedrin Migraine is acetaminophen, aspirin, and caffeine; I haven't got items 2 and 3 so I just went for item 1.) On the bright side, I do not especially ache from yesterday's karate, which is a step up from aching two days after the first karate workout in years.

Last night's headache came hot on the heels of watching movies with batyatoon and sdelmonte. We decided to settle down and watch our newest milliways_bar characters' canons together. After flipping a coin to see whether Sergeant Wells or Alexander Knox went first (I called tails), we watched Dog Soldiers. Lovely, lovely werewolf movie. And, yeah, Sean Pertwee resembles his father more and more every year, both in face and in voice.

Batman, the original movie, came next. I have got to rent the DVD and screen cap it for sdelmonte to use. It's been forever since I watched even part of the first movie, though, so my brain was a bit unprepared for some of the old stuff. memo to self: criticizing Joker for being cliched and ludicrously over the top and stereotypical is like criticizing Shakespeare for using weird phrasing. Where did you think the stereotypes came from?

Anyway, I left before the movie finished, 'cos I had to have the car back by midnight. It was a Prius, btw, and they are fascinating cars to drive if you do not mind the fact that every so often THE ENGINE NOISES JUST GO AWAY. (That's the electric kicking in.) I got into the car and turned on the radio...

... now, it's been a while since my third-string superpower of turning on the radio after a movie and having the first song be appropriate to what I watched kicked in. But last night it kicked in, HARD. First song? "Once Bitten, Twice Shy". I fumbled for my cell phone to call batyatoon and tell her. ANd as I did so, the second song came on.

"I'm Not Crazy, I'm Just A Little Unwell".

... ya-heh.

And I take it that Sean Pertwee's father was Jon Pertwee, the BEST DR. WHO EVAH? (And also the most queer acting, and the only one portrayed as having a crush on one of his companions - female - until recently. I think they felt they had to do that just to keep people from saying he was gay.)

That'd be him, yep. Alas, I have not actually seen any of the Pertwee Doctor Who episodes. (Although I'd love to see the Milliways player who has the Doctor bring in that Doctor just to have Sgt. Wells stand up, blanch, and go "... Dad?"

Oh, that would be rather cool. :)

*wince*

Have we developed a psi-link or something? I woke up with a headache too...granted, mine was from walking into a doorframe at about midnight last night.

[camwyn]

Possibly. I was blaming it on the weather system, though.

Well...it couldn't have been a link from me to you, now that I think of it. Your headache started at 10 and my face hit the door at 12.

But maybe if the link worked from you to me...;)

if you want to borrow my copy of Batman, I can get it to you.

[sdelmonte]

BTW, since you left before the film was done...

Batman won.
