ANTICIPATION IS A BITCH
Wednesday, August 24, 2005 10:19 AM
So, it’s currently 11.07 a.m. which means … um, let me do the math here … nothing plus nothing (plus a couple a hours) equals …uh huh …. 9 hours and 8 minutes …I have exactly 9 hours and eight minutes, no wait, 7 minutes, to go before I see the BDM ….
AM so excited I may pop .. but what if my credit card doesn’t work??… What if there is a bomb somewhere in London and the tube stops working??… what if there’s the wrong kind of rain on the train tracks??… What if my friend who’s flying back from New York this morning just to see it with me is so damn GROUCHY that I stab him with a broken beer bottle, get arrested and am thrown in clink before the film starts???
All these things COULD happen … Am just a bundle of nerves …
Mostly I just keep thinking: “must lower expectations!! Must LOWER expectations!!”
What if it isn’t as good as everyone says and my long LONG wait ends in horrific disappointment?? … NAH! SO NOT GONNA HAPPEN!!
Actually, is kinda nice that am going to see the BDM with the friend who gave me my first Firefly DVDs and told me to watch it – there’s closure for ya!!
Hurrah, now I only have 11 hours and 2 minutes to wait ….
