Movie

Kristy and I took the kids to see Coraline. It was actually Kristy who got the whole thing going and I just kind of tagged along. I have to say that it’s been hard for me to get motivated to do things on the weekend when I’ve often been staying up till the late hours of the night to get homework done.

The projection was messed up, so the screen was set about a foot (I’m really just making that measurement up since I have no idea of the actual size of the screen or anything) too low and even after I complained about it the matter was not resolved. This became really obvious, because at one point during the movie something is written at the bottom of the screen and we could not see it. We got three free tickets because of it, and that is good enough for me. The movie was still enjoyable and the children seemed to enjoy it a great deal.

Quest: Get a New Television (Completed)

Eddy’s hand me down television, which was older than him, finally died, and we had to get a new television. I ran up to Wal-Mart, found the television that I needed for cheap, and got it. I found The Bourne Identity, but it was in full screen, so I am still looking for it in wide screen.

I was carrying the television with both hands and the employee at the door started yelling that she needed to see my receipt, so I did what I always do… I kept walking. She kept screaming and hollering like a mad woman. It would have been humorous, but I was too busy carrying a rather awkward television. Stores don’t have the right to treat me like a thief.
