Movie-going

Listen, stolen internet hasn't been working, also camera charger has vanished. It's the perfect storm for no new blog posts. But you should see my Sims game, I don't want to brag, but do the words second floor DECK mean anything to you?! Ah Sims, why can't I quit you.

But today, dear reader(s), I will discuss movie-going. Zach and I take our movie-going experience VERY seriously. The only thing we take more seriously is our Rubios order (do not stand between us and the secret 4 oz salsa cups). If it's a movie we've been looking forward to, we see it opening night, of course. If we're really excited about it (i.e. The Dark Knight) we see it at the Cine Capri at Tempe Marketplace, of course. We get a large Diet Coke to share, extra ice. I get popcorn, Zach gets Milk Duds. Okay really I want the popcorn and the milk duds but Zach pretends the duds are for him so that I don't feel like such a sloth. We sit towards the middle, not too close not too far. We try to sit with at least one seat between us and any near-by strangers; and we get really annoyed if people we don't know sit directly next to us when the theater is in no way full and therefore rendering their closeness entirely unnecessary. Why do you do this strangers, why?

(I'm sorry. Camera charger - lost!)

So the other night we went to Four Christmases (meh.) and Zach was tapping his foot as he is known to do when he doesn't like the movie. And hey, I know it's annoying to have someone sitting behind you tapping their foot; but do you know what she did? No you don't, you weren't there, so I will tell you. The lady sitting in the row in front of us reaches back...GRABS his foot...holds it still briefly, and then lets go. What?! Bitch did you just grab his foot?! No touchy, spiky-haired lady. No touchy.

This post has no where else to go. Moral - don't grab people's feet, it's weird. Also, bring me some duds. Okayloveyoubye.

Thats weird! Who does she think she is? People need to be punched sometimes.

this is so funny. I'm coming out of lurking to say I can't believe someone actually touched his foot. I would have moved but NOT touched him! I can't stop laughing though - I'm sorry!

I take it the movie wasn't good? darn - I am supposed to see it this weekend :(

The spiky-hair lady obviously has teenagers and a shortage of xanax.

Ah young Erica Skywalker taught you well have I.

Tim has been tutored in the secrets and ways of theater.

Lol I'm in disbelief.

Lol to Michelle's comment, secret ways of the theater.

I think that either you or your other half need to get a part time job at AMC so that you can watch as many movies as you want...I got you thinking didn't I? I can see you in the makeshift suit/tux tearing tickets, you bet.

Oh no she deen't! Wow. What did you guys do after she did that? Move to the seats right next to her and chew your popcorn in her ear, I hope.

And go ahead and be a sloth, Caca, order the Duds and the popcorn. There is nothing better at the movies.

I like to be as far away from other people in the theater as I can, too. I do not want to hear their conversation or see the light on their cell phone when they are checking their texts midway through the movie.

We need a girls movie night soon.

What the ... are you kidding me? What a weirdo. You should have dumped your leftover popcorn kernels on her head.

Love the cat picture.
