Midweek Check In

Happy Hump Day to you and yours!  Anyone else having a case of the "short week feels longer than a regular week" yet or does that hit tomorrow? Unfortunately, Monday afternoon the tweens/teens found the pool not too far from the abode so we got to listen to the hootings of young, insecure males attempting to show off for both girls and their fellow brethren.  I'm really hoping this is just some cousins visiting or something for the weekend because I know of only one teen boy here and he's a loner.  Is pool season over yet?   It always starts strong like this and then typically dies down within a month but what an irritating month it is until then.  We did some more work out on the patio Monday.  It was going to be the last sunny day before two days of forecasted rain...again.  I made sure to get the new picket painted and hung to cover this delightful sight: When the picket was off, I could see how bad the support 2x4's looked on the fence.  ...

Hump Day Poll: Tappin' Out


Movies so bad you can't even stay until the end.  Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion.  I wanted to leave 10 minutes in.  The Mr and I kept looking at each other every 10 minutes and neither of us said anything.  Afterward, we both said "I wanted to leave from the beginning."  Then we sat there appalled that we wasted our lives on that shitshow and vowed never to sit through a movie that bad again.

I fell asleep during Phantom Menace after Darth Maul died so while I didn't leave physically, I left mentally.  Trainwreck with Amy Schumer we actually left....10 minutes before it was over.  I literally couldn't take it anymore, was so ragey and the Mr was like "I give zero f**ks how this turns out."  We were at a drive-in and since we had a long drive ahead of us, I considered it a plus.  I can only imagine people being like "wow, you hung in that long and are leaving now??"  Yep.  The movie was aptly named so I blame myself for not taking them at their word.

Have you ever walked out on a movie?

  1. My son's then gf insisted we go see Don Jon. I didnt know what is was about. After about 10 minutes of vertigo from dizzying porn flashes and noticing my son with his head in his hands, I announced I was leaving. They quickly followed me out. I marched up to the counter and told them the movie sucks and got a refund.

  2. Romy and Michelle is the only one I have ever wanted to walk out on like that, but didn't. But yeah that Trainwreck was aptly named!

  3. I don't think I've ever actually walked out of a theatre. There have been a couple I would have liked to, but the people/person I was with was enjoying it so I stayed for them.

  4. I've never walked out of a theater for a movie I didn't like (although I've seen many I didn't care for), but when I was young I remember leaving the theater because of being bored and my attention span was wandering.
