After spending last Sunday morning trying to record Comes and Goes and failing to get even halfway through it without messing up more than once, I decided I was going to need more time. I still haven't played it through clean yet, but it's getting more and more automatic and I am cautiously optimistic about next weekend.
This weekend, instead, I watched Worlds and went to see The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel with mom. The movie was sweet and fun, much like the last one, with Judi Dench and Maggie Smith highlighting it with their fine work. A little worried they may try to push things for a third though. Worlds had Meagan Duhamel & Eric Radford winning, which was great, but there were a couple of reasons to be heartbroken too. I fear that might have been Kaitlyn Weaver & Andrew Pojé's last chance to win a World title, what with the way Gabriella Papadakis & Guillaume Cizeron proved so authoritative in their takeover-it seems likely they'll win all the things until at least the next Olympics. Though at least Madison Chock & Evan Bates, though rewarded for their classless decision to use the music he'd once planned to use with Emily with a world medal, at least didn't win either. Mom and I watched the first part of the NBC broadcast while eating Chinese food after coming home from the movie, and she approved of the placements, and enjoyed Gracie Gold, who she's loved since we saw her in Boston last year, but admitted she wasn't at her most impressive performancewise.
Also started editing a new montage tonight! I have managed to download and install the old Movie Maker, and am trying to get it to behave by converting all the videos I use to wmv. Although it was the media player that was acting up instead today, refusing to remove files I'd deleted from the library; I finally had to delete the library files from the computer and have the library build itself afresh.
