If #2 son is going to end up living in the basement, #1 son will have to take the attic. Both kids are back from camp, and I didn’t wait more than an hour or two before messing up their social lives.
We went to the movies. “John Tucker Must Die.” Not bad at all. A considerably better romantic comedy than “My Super Ex-Girlfriend.”
But afterwards, #1 son looked around and said, “I just went to a PG-13 movie. With my family.” (looking down at the fake Crocs on his feet) “In my ridiculous plastic shoes.”
I told him on the way out that he could go again, with a girl, and pretend he hadn’t seen it.
The usher handing out mints at the door thought it was a pretty good idea.
Which is worse: going to a teen date movie and getting dating advice from your mother, or from the usher with the mints?
LOL!
WHat kind of mints? Butter mints or chocolate mints? We don’t have any mint-handing-out ushers in So. CA.
Starlight pepermints.
It makes no sense to me, other than that it’s Starz Cinema. It’s not like, after a big bag of fake-buttered popcorn I’m thinking, “Gee, I need a mint.”
They could hand out floss. Or maybe toothpicks. That would work.
Definitely floss or toothpicks for the popcorn! Maybe they’re thinking you had a hotdog with onions on it? 🙂 I’d have preferred buttermints or chocolate mints though. 😉
