Serenity
I went to the charity showing of Serenity this morning. The movie was just as good as I remembered from the other two times I saw it in the theater. I bought a bunch of raffle tickets, and I won a book that isn't out yet, so I just got a voucher for now. It was good. But then the typical rude obnoxious people here had to start a conversation right in front of me, making fun of fat Americans. The longer I live here, the more I am convinced that the people here are mostly soulless and evil. Even gawky ugly nerds at a sci-fi movie think that they have a right to be rude to strangers.
Needless to say, I didn't go to the after-movie hang-out at the bar.
I keep asking my husband if we can move to Canada. Halifax looks nice. I'm getting sicker and sicker of the people here. Even the adults here act like obnoxious junior high students, and I hate even contemplating how horrible the children are. 70% of the people in this country claim to be Christians, but so far I have not experienced a single instance of Christian kindness, or even basic humanity from most of them.
I'm tired of being here. Being a fat American in the UK is roughly equivalent to being a Jew in Germany in 1940, or being a black person in Mississippi in the 1950's. The way I'm treated by complete strangers saddens and enrages me. It's probably for the best that guns are illegal here.
