The husband and myself went to a movie this evening and I left with a few notes of interest. Well, first I must say that we saw "The Blind Side". Great movie...great story...you should all go see it...well, all 2.5 people that will read this. (The .5 is my sister's dogs who are probably laying at her feet while she reads).
Anyway, the reason we are all gather today...Points of interest:
1. When did a "small" coke at the movies become the size of a small sea?
2. When did a "small" wild cherry slushy at the movies become the size of a slushy small sea?
These are SMALLS people...small, medium, large...tiny, average, huge....none, some, lots. (Granted, the price does in no way reflect the small status, but follow me here) Now it is like Huge, Hugger, Huggest. I think that movies and The Biggest Loser must have some silent pact that non of us "civilians" know about to keep each other in business. Think about it.
3. People with small children should not take them to a non-G rated movie at 8pm on a Saturday. And if you do completely lose your ever loving mind and decide that a 7-year old at a movie at 8pm on a Saturday is a good idea (which it isn't)...may I suggest that you please NOT sit in different rows and then 1 hour through the non-G rated movie, send the 7-year old to find his mother (seated next to me) some rows back. The 7-year will proceed to "whisper" mom....mom.....mom. Guess what kid, probably 75% of the females in that theatre were moms (non-silent whisper). Bad move parents of the year...bad move!
4. Tim McGraw should get hair implants...he looks good without the cowboy hat...but with hair.
5. After seeing this movie, I felt the need to go adopt someone. To which my husband rolled his eyes and said, "Not every adoption will end up with an NFL star." Toatlly missed the point and I still want to adopt someone.

Tomorrow I tackle Christmas decorations and the blue bird.
Hey Abby! Make that at least 3.5, 'cause I read it! Didn't know you had a blog, thanks for sharing. How's the Blue Bird? I'm jealous! She looks beautiful, and a sunroom for her to be in sounds nice, too. What is the Blue Bird stitching together right now?
ReplyDeleteI loved your description of bikers and cyclists, btw. Mitch would definitely fall into the category of cyclist, although he doesn't get out as often as he wants, and I would be a biker who can morph into a cyclist at times. Add to your definition: bikers ride to get someplace, cyclists ride to ride.
