Friday Five (on Saturday)

Friday Five: Regrets

Do have any regrets? Who doesn't? I think the longer we live, the more time we have to look back and second guess ourselves or see other paths we could have taken. But I do have a few regrets that were huge fuck-ups that could have been avoided if I had just used my brain.

If yes, then what's your biggest regret? ugh, something so stupid I'm still not ready to talk about it on here. So dumb. Like, beyond dumb. But the second regret would be not forcing my ex-boyfriend to get help sooner back when we were living together. I was far too passive in that relationship and I let his alcoholism, his depression, and his gender issues slide by and he just got worse and worse and it's hard to forget those nights at the hospital. If I had done something sooner, like told his family, maybe things wouldn't have ended quite so tragically.

If you could, would you ever go back and change anything? Yeah, though it would be hard to convince 20-year old me to listen, I'm sure. Though I guess if me from the future came back and said "STOP IT!" I would be freaked out enough to do so. Yeah, and the dumb thing I would stop myself from doing completely. But we all do stupid things when we are in bad places.

If you could, would you go to the future to see where your decisions have taken you? SPOILERS! Plus, if movies and tv have taught me anything, it's that knowing too much about the future can usually lead to everything falling apart and changing that future.

Movies of 2014

Even though I plan on using Letterboxd to track my movie viewing this year, I still want an LJ post for tracking too! This will be used to track only movies that are NEW TO ME. Not going to track rewatches because that just got crazy last year. :)

More thoughts on the Community premiere posted to my Wordpress blog (yeah yeah I know I said I was keeping my social sites limited but I like this blog and have a small community of peeps on there now so I can't give it up).

Played with my User Info today and tried to spruce it up a little. Not sure how I feel about it...the previous version wasn't loading in Chrome correctly, I couldn't scroll to the right, so I picked a vertical layout. Need to go back and add more things to all the little lists, but I wanted to make sure it was formatted correctly first before I really got into that.

Next up is I need to change my layout because I've had the same one for a year. I do love it, it is probably one of my favorite layouts ever, but out with the old and in with the new. It's a very SERIOUS layout, I feel like my next one should be something funny...perhaps Adventure Time related. I shall figure it out.

Still haven't watched Sherlock. SHhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Tomorrow is the Green Bay Packers game in the afternoon and maybedeadcat is throwing a mini-shindig here. Sylvia made me a Packers colored bracelet on her rainbow loom that she got for Christmas and I washed my dark green shirt so I'm all set. I am hoping I can finagle some hot wings in with the pizza purchase for dinner because I kinda love hot wings.

OH! I was soooooo bad and I ordered a box of wine from NakedWines.com. I got a coupon code with something I ordered over Christmas and I was like "what the heck! I love wine!" and placed an order. Which is sort of hilarious now because we have SO MUCH BOOZE from New Year's in the kitchen. I'm looking forward to trying the wines though, they are all from small wineries, some flavors I haven't had in awhile anyway. Should be fun. I'll have to blog about the wines...even though I don't really have the language to discuss wine beyond "it's red!" and "mmmmm tasty!" or "eeeeew gross!" but what more do you need to know?

And as it's almost midnight, I think I shall go curl up in bed with my iPad and a book and see which one I fall asleep with first...

Toodles!
