castalieHi, guys. I'm writing this entry from my bed, warm and comfortable, for I took today off and I'm the most relaxed I've been in quite some time. Two of the big deadlines I was getting ready for at work for months now have come to pass (I'd been working on one of them since past May) and everything worked like a charm. Bossman and a couple of the other men I worked with on this project thanked me, which, you know how it is, "thank you" are just two words but two words that go a long way, so. To be fair, my boss is the kind of man who always thanks us when we did good on something so I wasn't surprised but coming from the other two dudes, it was pretty sweet :-)
Funny thing is, I didn't stress as such over Last Night's Project but, when it was over, I did feel like a weight had been taken off my shoulders. And today I feel so mellow, it's awesome :-) Well, mellow but also sore from the little dive I took yesterday morning, on my way to work. Dude, I don't fall often but when I do I make up for it! I have bruises on my right leg and my back hurts a little. Guess I have an even better reason to stay home today :-) As we French say "plus de peur que de mal", meaning I basically scared myself more than I hurt myself but yeah, soreness today!
Onto more interesting things. I - finally - got to see Danny Boyle's production of Frankenstein Monday night with Cookie,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jedicathy and rosengirl. When they broadcast the show live last year, France wasn't included in the lucky countries who showed the play but they finally decided to remedy it and offered us some screenings. We started with the version that has Cumberbatch play the Creature and Miller Victor Frankenstein. It was amazing. What a performance, wow! It was riveting, really. Also, I found myself taking a couple of notes for my thesis, that was fun ;-) We'll see the second version next Monday, I can't wait!
Apart from that, my Renner obsession is still going strong. I've purchased some more of his films and downloaded some others so that I didn't bankrupt myself ;-) I'm also enjoying some nice fanvids, like that one, for instance, which is a tribute to Jeremy Renner in The Hurt Locker - which I haven't seen yet, even though the DVD has finally made it home.
Speaking of Renner, I think I'm going to watch some more of The Unusuals, now, and keep on not moving from the bed since it's on the laptop \o/

Congratulations on finishing your work projects successfully \o/, and ouch!wince for decking yourself. I hope you don't feel too sore - a day in bed is such a good idea.
