Or – “How Saturday nights film inspired me to plot a revolution against my boss”
Valkyrie was good fun. Complete bollocks historically speaking, but nicely made and performed.
It also gave me some tips on how to oust my manager from his position of power and earn myself a wage-improving promotion in the process. Plotting his death may be a bit less effective than working hard and applying for the position when it arises, but I like to think outside the box when I can, and I hope he’ll appreciate my ingenuity. Just before I blow him to smithereens in the pet food aisle.

On a more important topic – the date wasn’t as totally disastrous as my nervous mind had convinced me it would be. Donna was as nice in a cinema as she is in a library, and the smile she uses when relaxed could melt the heart of an igloo-dwelling snowbeast. She seemed almost as nervous as I was – which is probably a good sign – and kept telling me how infrequently she has been on dates, which to me means one of two things. Either she has been saving herself romantically for the right man to come along, so I don’t have to worry about the damage caused by previous beaus, or she’s been in a long-running but awful relationship which has scarred her forever and given her huge amounts of rage and hatred, all of which will be taken out on her next unfortunate boyfriend.
I look forward to finding out which is true.
