As planned, we went to Original Pancake House for breakfast. In my never ending quest to try all varieties of their pancakes, I opted for coconut pancakes today. Quite tasty, even if they did fuck up my eggs twice. I ate the second batch without complaining; they were tolerable. Usually, they make them perfectly... must have just been a bad day. Everything else was fabulous as usual, and one (or two) eggs made not-quite-the-way-I-like-them hasn't lowered its status as my favorite breakfast place yet.

Also as planned, breakfast was followed by Harry Potter. It's been a long time since I read the book, so, although I had a vague idea of things missing, I couldn't remember what they were. The social classroom stuff, I know was deleted. I just don't remember the details of it. I need to re-read the books.

At the movie, I saw a guy there that I knew I knew, and couldn't place him. I thought he reminded me of Lee (Parker, not Dickson), but that didn't quite sit right with me. After the movie, as we were sitting in the theatre watching the credits roll, there were a bunch of guys standing around in the aisles debating the movie. One guy, wearing a Griffyndor scarf that I could see in the dark said something, and I thought his voice was familiar. We all left at the same time, and sure enough, it was [livejournal.com profile] joezer. I hadn't seen him in a LONG time, and went up to hug him. I'd forgotten that all the people who knew me from that time (the first 6 months I lived here, although I knew [livejournal.com profile] joezer before I moved down here, since he used to live with Shayne and [personal profile] logomancer) still call me Krista. It was strange to be called that. But when we hugged, there was something ...it's hard to describe. There was a calmness, a comforting feeling that I don't recall from before. I could have stayed in his embrace indefinitely, and went back for more after I had gone to the bathroom. I also re-introduced myself to a couple of people I knew from that time, as well. It was good.

On the way home, we stopped at McDonalds, and then watched The Ring 2 on On Demand while I performed manicures and pedicures on all of us. Now, I'm here, just wanting to record the moments of today.

For some reason, I got emotional a few times today, my tears catching in my throat, catching me completely off guard. One, I know, was because of King Kong... I've never seen any version of it, but it holds a special meaning for me. There was another time that I had that reaction, too, but I don't remember what caused it. Anyway, I just seem to be in a mood today.
