If we were having coffee – All blitzed out!

Organised by Diana (Part Time Monster).

If we were having coffee I would tell you I took my nan to the cinema yesterday to see San Andreas. We had an additional treat because my youngest daughter decided to grace us with her presence! She assured me it was a desire to spend time with us, but I think it’s more likely she had a hankering for a Tango Ice Blast! Those things have quite the pull for my Gracie 🙂

Still, she enjoyed the movie; as did my nan. It made me giggle because Grace constantly looked across at me to gauge my reaction – to check if it was okay to be scared out of her wits! At one point we both had our hands up to our faces; mouths hanging open in horror as the action unfolded. San Andreas is a lot of fun. It’s a disaster movie and, in my opinion, a good one. Sure, the main character dodged falling buildings with a helicopter, containers from a cargo ship in a much smaller vessel, and basically escaped an avalanche by the skin of his teeth. But he’s The Rock. So he gets away with it!

If we were having coffee I would ask about your week, and the movies you’ve seen recently. I’d ask if you’re looking forward to Jurassic World as much as I am. I can’t wait! I have a slight obsession with Chris Pratt and his special brand of humour; in his interviews and movies – in particular Guardians of the Galaxy.

If we were having coffee I would tell you I was Blitzed yesterday! If you pulled that ‘huh?’ face I’d quickly explain that it’s a blogging event organised by DL Hammons and his team. A wonderful concept which (in his words) ‘concentrates the support, encouraging nature and community spirit of the blogosphere on a single blogger.’ This time I was chosen, which can either be a random selection or through a recommendation. It was overwhelming, the amount of blog love I received.

Of course, true to form I had a technical glitch on my site, which made it really difficult for people to drop a comment. But, in addition to taking the time to stop by, bloggers actually navigated through the quagmire to say hello. How awesome is that…pretty damn awesome!

I had to laugh at the notification I received from WordPress (your stats are booming: you’re getting lots of traffic). I had a ‘no shit, Sherlock’ moment because I don’t think my blog has had that many views in…well…ever!

If we were having coffee I would pause for breath, and listen to the rest of your news. I’d thank you for dropping by because I always enjoy to see you, and then we would head on over to Diana’s place and catch up with everybody else. Hold on to your mugs, because it’s always an adventure 🙂

Have a great weekend. Until next time.
