thursday afternoon movies

my friend and i have been going to movies on thursday afternoons.  not every thursday, but some thursdays.  we went today.  we feel like we're robbing a bank or something.  we feel like our kids are going to come find us, drag us out of the movie and make us go home and do chores or something.  but there's something so refreshing about shutting the door behind us to our committments at home and enjoying an afternoon of popcorn, diet coke and mindless entertainment.  i heartily recommend afternoon movies.  today there were like 25 people in the theater and we were mad that our secret was getting out.  we are used to five or six others sharing our movie.

my suburban just drove off to st. george.  with people in it of course.  craig, sam and isaac are headed for a baseball tournament in dixie, where it's supposed to be warm, but it's not going to be this weekend.  the low is supposed to be 30 degrees.  i stayed home with caroline and jake--it's jake's birthday tomorrow.  caroline and i had planned to go to ikea on saturday and i didn't remember that when i told craig i could trade him cars.  grrrrr.

girl's basketball tonight and 9-year-old basketball tonight.  the girl's game was wild as ever.  did you know that when girls foul each other in a church game, they often apologize.  i think that's funny.  isaac's game was close and isaac was naughty.  when he made a great play, he blew kisses to the crowd.  i heard a couple sitting near me say what a poor sport he was and that he should be benched for showboating.  i think he was just having fun though and the referees high fived him a few times.  maybe those people just need to lighten up.
