You know you are parents of 4 boyz when running for more snacks at the beginning of date night is urgent for next day, normal and more exciting doing it together. Who knew Walmart aisles could be a bonding experience? But so true, I'm like I thought you liked these kind of chips? No, really. Wow ok. Since when? Ah. You want this? Hmmm... Interesting. And by the way as we pass the deodorant aisle please please get yourself your own deodorant really any kind and more than one- go all out my love it's on me. Mysteriously ...my deodorant keeps disappearing & not coming back for days at a time so so not good for my sanity! (this was the sweetest I could be with the thought of having to search high & low to find my deodorant as I rush out the door & not finding it, no hard feelings really ha!) score now that was fixed. Huge steps already, now on to the movies. We decided to try this out since we don't normally sit through movies or go.
We get there and realize Saturday night is a big deal for the movies and the show was sold out until the 10:20 show. We look at each other and decided to wait it out. This was a rather relaxing wait as we snuck into an empty theater to sit and eat popcorn. As we go to sit down for our movie, I realized we weren't the ideal neighbors for movie goers. We couldn't figure out how to recline the seats, we had our pops in the wrong cup holders, and we should have opened the candy boxes up before, also forced my sidekick to put phone down so we could really bond now. To our disbelief the chairs electronically reclined back all the way back and soon it hit me why I don't sit or relax like this. It knocks me out. I'm go go go then BAM! I got to be honest there is some noticeable twitching as my body is fighting out this desire and passion to sleep. I didn't want to sleep so I tangoed with myself and felt like torture trying to stay awake. Head bobbing got invited and repeat blinky eyes who both forgot to invite coffee to help them out and moral support lol. That's me then there is my other half hacking up a lung. Totally lagit since he has every bad ailment from a cold. So there's the twitching mama & the hacking hubby struggling to get through the mildest date night ever. Epic! On the way home, We concluded that movies aren't us and we aren't for them, they don't run wild in our blood, & we have to stick with non-reclining dates for the near future to prevent malfunction and shutdowns. Here's a pic of a summer ribfest date night that kept me on my toes & twitch-free. Peace!
