Score for French doors!! This was made possible by the free washer and dryer we are receiving from my mom and dad. My parents are awesome!
So I usually update my blog on Mondays, but I'll have you know that this past Monday was date night extraordinaire. It was pretty much a second honeymoon in the great big exotic city of Knoxville. And the best part--it didn't cost us a dime!!!
The first thing we did was treat ourselves to quite the exquisite dinner at Red Lobster.
I even let John order the most expensive thing on the menu. Whoa, I know. High rollers here. Buuuuut it's only because we had a $50 gift card (thanks again, Mom and Dad).
Next, it was to the movies (again, only because we had a gift card). Let me just go on a little rant here...
I think the movie theaters are ridiculous. The only ones I will willingly go to are the ones in Middlesboro because they are $3.50. Paying $10 for a ticket? I mean, heck, John and I could practically buy the Blu-ray by the time we went to see a movie in theaters. Does anyone else find this insanely ridiculous??? I digress...
So we went to the movies. We saw... (drum roll, please) The Grey.
Now, without giving away the plot (because it's so intensely complex.....), I will say that this is definitely NOT a chick flick. In fact, it is the opposite of a chick flick. Perhaps a dude uhh... Well, I don't have anything that rhymes with dude. But it's a man movie. Lots of fighting and dying and dramatic moments and absolutely NO romance. I mean, what's a movie without two people falling in love?
Needless to say, I was not a fan of the movie. Not to mention that this couple sat in front of us and talked THE ENTIRE WAY THROUGH THE MOVIE!!!
Now, it's my opinion that if I just paid TWENTY FREAKING DOLLARS to sit in this uncomfortable place where I can't even recline and put my feet up, you had better shut your mouth while I'm in there. Nothing bothers me more than people that talk in movie theaters. So if you are one of those people, beware. Had John not told me to let it go physically held me back, I would have beat them up. And then that gave me an idea...
I do believe next time I go to the theater, I will take with me a Nerf gun. Then when people talk, I shall shoot them in the back of the head.
I like the looks of this one.
So John and I finished the movie and ended up going back to his hotel (paid for by Verizon, thank you very much). The next night (that would be Tuesday night), we went to Chili's and something amazing happened. We saw a celebrity!!
Yep, you guessed it. We saw the guy on the left at Chili's. As he was walking out. It still counts.
And for those of you not from around here, you're missing out. This guy is practically famous for his Ogle, Elrod, and Baril commercials. WE COME TO YOU!
As a closing note, has anyone ever heard that on the first day of the month when you wake up, you are supposed to say white rabbit three times before you say anything else? One of my school teachers told me that a long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away and I've been trying to remember to say those two words three times each every first of the month every month since she told me that. I've never been successful. It's supposed to give you good luck.
Which I could have used on my test tomorrow (you can't tell I have a test or anything, right? I mean, I'm not procrastinating or anything.....).
Happy Wednesday!!
