It has been one of those weeks.
Sick kids,
running to the orthodontist day after day for loose wires,
and doctor appointments.
But the worst of it was my husband working 6 days straight and then "deathly" sick on his only day off.
Last night, after having the doctor call in a prescription, I headed to Layton to the closest 24 hour pharmacy. I was enraged to find out the prescription wouldn't be done for 1-2 hours! I told them forget it because I was not coming all the way back and drove away. As I drove down the street I spotted the movie theatre and thought to myself,
"I deserve a night at the movies".
I headed back to the pharmacy with my head hung low and told them to go ahead and fill the prescription.
I have never been to the movies by myself. I must say, it was empowering. I can't say much for the movie. It was very disturbing and I left very paranoid about my surroundings. Heck, a lone woman leaving the theatre at 11:00 at night after watching "Taken" is very scary.
I heard once that women should go to the movies by themselves once in awhile and I never understood why.
Now I do.

that movie left me distrubed too! and Jake was with me.
I think I'll have to go see a movie alone this weekend. Thanks for the suggestion.
just seeing if the email thing works for me... If anyone knows how I can have emails sent to me when other sites put on new posts, let me know.
I love that you did that! I can see myself doing the same thing. Going to a busy restaurant does the similar thing also...but you don't leave creeped out! I love the pict of the twins, and the popcorn story was great!! Hope we see you guys sometime! It seems like it has been forever!!
I have never been to a movie by myself...I think I might fall asleep and be the gal sitting there that has to be awakened by an employee...that's why I need a friend there, I guess...to wake me up!
Is everyone feeling better now?
Oh, and I go to readergoogle.com. I put in my blogs that I read and it shows you when it has been updated, but it does not email you. I don't know how to do that.
You are awesome, Nan. I feel like going to the movie by myself all of the time. Maybe I'll follow your example.
Scott and I saw that movie (had no idea what is was about beforehand) and I hated it. You're brave to see it by yourself; I had nightmares afterward. At least you got out. Next time go see a chick flick! I'm thinking about doing that by myself since Scott only likes action/violence.
