Accawesome

My days of being a bachelorette are over. Mr. Man has returned from the east and is back to full occupancy of the manor. The days without him went by so fast! The longest we have been apart and I was worried it would get boring but I kept my chin up and played as hard as I could.

Sadly, my lame attempt at a girls night was a bust. I forgot to save a stay home night and in the last 3 days of living solo, threw together a movie night to prep for the movie Pitch Perfect 2. You have to watch Pitch Perfect  to know the plot of the sequel . I recorded the show days ahead thinking there would be no problem with that. I actually know how to use that play back function of the television. It only takes 1 remote and I have 5 to choose from!

The company was awesome. The food I served was limp. We nestled in to watch the show only to discover the recorded version wouldn't play due to connection issues and we tried direct view rental from Amazon which was surely going to be easy.  That was great if you didn't mind taking a 30 minute nap every 10 minutes of paused movie time....again, poor internet service.  Acca-awful! VERY impressed that one of us had an adult child willing to drive to our rescue, go and rent the movie, bring it over here, plop it into the blue-ray and make it play without any jerking pauses.  Andrew, you are my movie hero! Accawesome!!

You know you have super nice gal pals when they over look the tufts of fur sticking to their black pants and lay panting under an ineffective fan as the air conditioner tries to catch up and cool us off and down play the long wait time between movie scenes. We missed Rebel Wilsons mermaid dance and had to wait 3 hours to see it in play back ! It only took 4 1/2 hours to watch the 1 hour 53 min. movie but it was great having the house guests that provided distraction and entertainment with many belly laughs and a new game called "bead scramble".

One of us knew all the words to every song. . . . in fact, I think she knew all of the dialogue too so when we were missing parts, she filled in without a pause. Accaentertaining!

Looking forward to seeing Pitch Perfect 2 now that I have been Accaprepped and reintroduced to the cast. Just don't ask me to sing harmony. I only do solos in the car on the freeway.
