Would you believe me if I told you that I haven't seen a movie, in a movie theatre in over two years? Would you believe me if one of the main reasons that I haven't been to a movie theatre is because the smell of popcorn makes me nauseous? Or that my attention span is way to short to sit through an entire movie!? and now knowing all of this, would you believe me that on Saturday night, me and one of my other mommy friends [robyn] drove an hour away to a movie theatre...just to see
Step Up Revolution 3D?! hahaha.
Well believe it, because it totally happened.
We are married, with children, in our twenties, usually in bed before 10pm, and we drove an hour to see Step Up...show time: 10:35pm.
When I had mentioned the idea to Kalob a few hours before, he was a little concerned. We live in Colorado, and the Aurora movie theatre shooting still hits close to home, so the only way that he would let us go was if we were packing.....
Wasp Spray.
[it's an item that is said to be extremely more efficient and better
than pepper spray for self-defense]
and of course I had to stop at a gas station and pick up some starbursts.

[GASP. I took in 'outside' food and drink! Oh stop, you know you do it too!]
And because we were just so awesome, we saw it in 3D

so we got to wear these gorgeous looking things!
And I can't even begin to tell you how worth it, that movie was!
Hope everyone's weekend was amazing and spontaneous...clearly mine was!

I used to HATE going to the movies. The theater was cold and uncomfortable and having to set there without being able to hit pause for bathroom breaks was just intolerable. Now, I love going to the movies. We went to see the new batman movie a few weeks ago and after it was over I said, "I just made it through a 3 hour movie without a bathroom break. YES!!!!" I was very proud of myself!
ReplyDeleteI so want to see that movie!!! And I also want to dance in it.. Maybe in another life?! Lol. Or maybe they'll take white girl moves as back up dancers??
ReplyDeleteYou ROCK those 3D glasses! Fabulous! I can't stand going to a movie, I can't sit there that long. & it's just plain loud lol. But I sit through it when boyfriend wants a movie night! Stopping by from the GFC Hop! Loving your blog. Say hello to your newest follower from Texas! I'm so excited to read more from you.

My first movie in FOREVER was Katy Perry: Part of Me 3D last month. I feel sooo much better now.
ReplyDeleteI came across your blog in "the hop." I don't know exactly what that is, but I'm pretending to. Well, not anymore. The cat is out of the bag. Oops.
Anyway, cute blog! You have a new follower!
Happy Blogging,

That is great that you went to see Step Up Revolution at 10:30! I am the same way - usually in bed by 10:00 (married and NO kids, just sleepy!) and I don't know if I could do a 10:30 show! I haven't been to the movies in forever either, until Batman came out!
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised that you can't stand the popcorn smell! I actually love it...it always makes me want to buy popcorn but I almost never do because it's insanely expensive. You make me want to see Step Up Revolution, though!
