How did people check movie times before the internet? And if a friend from home texts you, are you allowed to just ignore them? I'd say techno-free weekend was semi-successful. We were lazy but loved every minute of it.
We bought Avatar the day it came out, but we have been so busy that we haven't had a chance to watch it. Friday night we brought all the pillows and blankets into the living room for a movie night sleepover. I always used to make fun of my Mom when she fell asleep watching movies. She would say, "when the lights are off and my feet are covered, I can't help it." Well, I'm just like Mom. I think I saw maybe half of the movie.
We went to the beach Saturday. It was hot, hot, hot. I'm not a good beach go-er. I always end up with suntan lotion in my eyes, sand all over me, and a sunburn (no matter how high the SPF is or frequently I apply it.) And it was crowed! Look at all these people!
While Danny sunbathed, I was daydreaming about lunch. We ended up at a place that overlooked the ocean. At home, places like this are full of beer loving, laid back boaters. Apparently it's not like that in North Carolina. It was old-timers day and all the old ladies had big floppy hats on. We were sandy and in our bathing suits. To make things even more awkward some old lady yelled, "OH LOOK! A MARINE!"
We decided we wanted to see an early movie, that way we could have dinner at home. So, after a little shopping and a trip to Starbucks, we headed to the movie. We were a half hour early and Grown Ups was sold out. I didn't know movies sold out at 5:30 on a Saturday! Crazy! We ended up going to the Pawn Shop and getting a few movies. If you don't already get your movies there, you should! Ten movies for $20. Can't beat it!
Today has been so lazy. We woke up, had some breakfast, and have done n-o-t-h-i-n-g since then. That's why I gave up on being techno-free! I ordered 200 pictures on the CVS website...and only spent $18. Headed out for the Sunday haircut soon. And then we will come back and continue our lazy Sunday.
Have you read Gaile's guest blog? Totally appropriate and ironic, don'tcha think?!
Hope you are all having a great weekend!
