All year long we had planned to drive twelve hours in a car to Wisconsin to see the movie with Sara but then when it got down to it, Katie and I thought it was a pretty crazy thing to do for an hour and a half movie so last month we got some tickets right here in our own back yard.
On Friday after work we met up at Buffalo Wild Wings for some dinner...no we did not make the midnight showing the night before because we are o-l-d and old people can't get up for work the next day if they are out too late.
Jon and the kids met us for dinner because...well they hate to eat too and when dad is in charge it's usually restaurant food or take-out. Hey, I can deal with that as long as I get a few hours of me-time!
Our show started at 7:00 so at six we decided to make our way over to the theater, we knew there was going to be a lot of people but thankfully we had our tickets in hand so we could walk right through. There were probably twenty people in front of us and within minutes the people poured in and it was out the door.
Oddly enough one of the workers went into our theater with a mop bucket and when somebody asked him what happened, he said "you don't want to know" which leads me to beleive the sex scenes got to somebody (Pee-wee Herman style). Or...you know, somebody had the stomach flu.
Anyway, we got in our seats and we didn't move an inch. When we saw a woman walk in with a brand spanking new baby and two toddlers I thought it was going to be another opportunity for me to get hauled off in a cruiser, but we never heard a peep out of them. Even so, the sex scenes were very graphic, as was the birth of Bella's baby so if a movie is rated PG-13, it was for a reason - poor kids have been scarred.
The two calorie counting chicks refused the pop and popcorn and somehow I held Katie off the lady next to me when she brought in some nachos. I saw the look in her eye, she came close to sticking a finger right in that chick's cheese. You don't want to know what came out of her mouth when the lights came on and she saw the deliciousness thrown on the floor.
The movie was good but as my friend said the day before, Kristin Stewart looks constipated at all times, she is not a good actress at all...I wouldn't say the movie blew me away, but it was good nonetheless.
We met up with a few friends after the movie for a drink (read: dessert) to "discuss" what happened, what we liked/disliked, blah, blah, blah, eat and drink.
{I would do anything for peanut butter pie...anything}
Breaking Dawn: just another reason to get out of the house for food and drinks, without kids.
