yesterday, my dad, my sister and i went to gateway to see date night starring tina fey and steve carell. actually, that's a lie. we left the house without knowing where we were headed or what we would do once we got there. i guess indecision runs in the family. that and a lack of communication.
anyway, we got there just in time. and believe me, that rarely happens (to me, anyway). we got there at around 3:45 PM and the movie starts at 3:50. it really was a miracle because it was a saturday and there wasn't an impossibly long line for tickets. we were at the gateway cineplex on a saturday and there wasn't a line. who woulda thunk it? my sister got snacks (no line either) but she sure took her time salting her popcorn. we enter the movie theater and we arrived just when the last trailer before the movie ends. we settle into our seats and enjoy the opening credits. now that's what i call a photo finish.
the movie was really funny. like laugh-out-loud funny. there were also a lot of "WTF?" moments so that made it fun. i laughed the hardest during their stripper dance. it was all kinds of wrong but oh so funny. i loved that amazon's kindle was on the movie. yay for product placement! speaking of the scene with the kindle, the car chase was extremely funny. :))
after the movie, we browsed some of the stores in gateway, not really looking for anything in particular. then we ate at burgoo for dinner and headed home. the day started with lots of tension but we ended up having a good time. too bad my mom couldn't come with. i hope she feels and gets better.
in other news, i've finished The Titan's Curse, the third book in the percy jackson series and i must say, it is very funny. i've been spamming quotes from the book on my tumblr all night. now that i think about it, sea of monsters was not as good as the first and this third one. maybe because the gods are really the source of most of the comedy in the series. anyway, i'm excited to read the fourth, The Battle of the Labyrinth. wonder what kind of trouble nico di angelo will cause. oooooooh. i'm excited.
