I had a day where no one bugged me. A day off, basically. Sounds like a day in bed for me. Nope, today wasn't. What?!? Am I sick? Crazy? Not entirely ready to give up on life? No. Well, maybe the last one. Focus Jas.
I get the urge to go to the movies. When I was younger I practically lived in the movie theater. I would see at least two movies a week, sometimes two in a day. I decided to go to one movie every week last November. This, of course, making my desire to constantly see movies very persistent. Growing up slowed down my movie going. Today I found myself lacking the satisfaction a recent movie viewing grants me.
Look at that, I'm getting to a point. I wanted to go to a movie. Actually I wanted to go to two. I reminded my sister that we spoke about seeing Ride Along. She was game for seeing it still so we made it a date. Also, since I like to go to the movies in the middle of the day, I made plans to see That Awkward Moment at 11:15 AM. I let my sister know I was planning on seeing it as a way to explain why I chose the time for seeing Ride Along. She took my notice as an invitation and thus a sister day was born.
Instead of sleeping the day away, I was up and out of the house before the breakfast specials had their last call. My sister and I went to our first movie. It was delightful. With the hour we had in between movies, we ate lunch. That was delicious. Then it was time for round two. Ride Along, for the record, was funny and thoroughly enjoyed. After that my sister wanted to go and get her nails done. I sat and chatted her through her pedicure. We wrapped up the night with an hour long discussion of how to best tackle executing my mother's party. It was a discussion that ended exactly the way I expected.
All in all it was a good day. I enjoyed my day with my sister. Two movies in the bag and family time. I didn't miss my bed at all.
