I got back from vacation Friday morning. It was an uneventful trip; it's more a visit to my sister than an actual beach vacation. Don't get me wrong, I love spending time with my family and we did do the beach one day, shopping one day, pool one day, etc... I just really am ready for an actual beach vacation where I can sit on a balcony and see the beach, do a morning beach walk and an evening one, go out and eat for breakfast..... next year maybe.
Anyway, I've been in the light gray on Shapa for at least 2 weeks but finally today made it back to green! YAY ME! I kind of maintained during vacation, which is good.
I started my weight loss over today on the Lose It app. It didn't really change anything but I always like fresh starts.
I'm a HUGE movie buff and really like going to the theater to see a movie whenever possible. Our local theaters have been doing "Mystery Movies". You basically pay $5 to go to the movies and have no clue what movie your going to see - they are new movies that aren't out yet. I saw the new Jurassic World movie this way. The only thing you know is the rating of the movie (obviously that helps families). The theaters claim they don't know the movie until it starts; I've looked it up online and that seems to be true.
The first Mystery Movie we saw was "The Last Rodeo", the second was "Jurassic World:Rebirth", the next was "Oh Hi" and more recently "Sketch". I actually guessed right the first two; but not the last two. I enjoyed all of them. I had never heard of "Oh Hi" - it was R rated and therefore not family friendly (it really wasn't) but I don't remember seeing any children there.
"Sketch" is rated PG-13 and is kind of like a scary form of movie for younger kids (think Goose Bumps) - the rating definitely says PG-13, so that pretty much should tell you that younger than 13 it may not be appropriate for.
I found it funny that under the theater FB page; some parent stating she wished they gave more information so she'd know whether she could bring her child; another said she had taken an 8 year old to see what turned out to be "Sketch" and parts frighened the child.
"Give more information"? How much more can they give? It's a Mystery Movie!
"8 year old"? It was rated PG-13, certainly that should of been your warning!
I mean, I get it; but don't ruin the fun for everyone else. I enjoy these and I don't want to see so many complaints that they stop showing them. You want to take your children to the movies, go to one that you know what it is. Yeah, I know...the Mystery Movie is only $5.00. Well this particular movie theater offers $7.00 for all their movies on Tuesdays - go then.
