  • totally awesome and confidently badass?
  • or, sad and pathetic.

Bad. Ass. A month ago I saw two movies back to back by myself. I only paid for one, of course. It was a great way to spend a rainy day.

If you don’t like spending time with yourself - movies, dinner, anything - why should anybody else?

I went quite a few years ago now, but haven’t really thought about it since.  Must do so in London one day.
