Movie magic
It has been awhile but Kyle and I went back to the movies.
We saw "Black Widow."
And it was fun.
Good to be back at the theatre {spoken in fancy British accent}.
Even better to be back with my movie buddy.
We tried to figure out the last time we went to the movies and we landed on "Rise of Skywalker," which feels like a lifetime ago but it came out at the end of 2019.
Stella
Ms. Frizzle is no longer the only yellow lab on the block.
Some neighbors of ours got a puppy named Stella.
And she is pretty cute.
Frizzy heads down to her yard every morning to say hello.
I have been taking my temperature every time we come back home to make sure I don't have puppy fever. No spikes in temperature... yet.
Wool sock advisory
It's still hot in case you were wondering.
How hot?
Well, I am glad you asked.
Well, I am glad you asked.
Check this out:
One of our bikes was parked by an outdoor storage unit in our backyard and got a fancy, new paint job because a spray paint can exploded.
So it is exploding spray paint can hot here.More dumb observations
#1: I was watching a rerun of the hot dog eating challenge at the gym recently and all I could think of was how horrifying their first trip to the bathroom must be and even more horrifying if it is a public bathroom.
#2: Is it possible to stand backwards on stairs?

I will try and do better.
I will persevere. I will keep moving forward. I will be the stream.
Exploding paint can hot
ReplyDeleteOmgosh. I cannot imagine.
It got cooler, Debby, but the air quality got bad.
DeleteLol on that IKEA cake! That hot dog challenge disturbs me every July 4th, but hubby keeps watching it. Exploding paint in heat is a new one to me. How are your bike and car tires?I know extreme change in temps affect them (we have that issue going the other direction in temps).
ReplyDeleteCar tires seem to be doing OK and we haven't taken the bikes because it's too hot.
DeleteAwesome that you guys got to go back to the movies. Faith is fostering 2 kittens and I'm having a hard time holding Tony back from keeping them. You could put some canvases next to more paint cans, then call it fancy art and sell it for a lot of $$$$.
ReplyDeleteI like the canvas idea.
DeleteI think the last time I was in a movie theater was 'Rise of Skywalker' as well. It's been a long time for me too apparently. I do want to see Black Widow, but despite all of the good things I've heard, I'll wait until it's free on Disney+
ReplyDeleteI think that is a good idea, Jon.
DeleteSo glad you and Kyle were able to go see the movie. That's a long time to go without a movie for a little guy especially. Sorry it's still so hot there, especially exploding spray paint can hot! I hope it starts to cool down a bit soon. The Ikea cake is so perfect lol!
ReplyDeleteI live the Ikea cake too.
DeleteOh, man, yes - watch out for that puppy fever ... it's far too easy to catch that.
ReplyDeleteExploding paint can hot - good thing there were no people there at the moment. Wow.
That first meme is spot on. I try hard to go with a list and stick to it, but sometimes the stuff just jumps in the cart. Have a good week, Mr. S and family.
So far still no puppy fever.
DeleteVery glad you got to go to the movie.
ReplyDeleteTomorrow we are supposed to be
104. Oh noes! Puppy Fever! What a
cutie-pie. xoxo :-)
It cooled down to the low 90s but it is supposed to get hot again by Sunday.
DeleteMy friend and I were talking about a movie again. So far we can't find a date or a movie we both want to see.
ReplyDeleteHope you guys can find something to watch.
DeleteThat 90 on Friday looks positively chilling!!!
ReplyDeleteI cannot remember the last time we went to the movies, but I'm guessing late 2019???
Ms. Frizzle has a new mentee in the 'hood!!
It was the low 60s this morning and I almost had to put on a hoodie.
DeleteWow - exploding paint can hot is really hot! How did you two like "Black Widow"? We have not been to the movies since before the pandemic started but we will be going to see "Black Widow" in the next week or so.
ReplyDeleteWe enjoyed Black Widow a lot.
DeleteOhhh yay for movies!
ReplyDeleteI have yet to go to a movie theater. Really. Haven't been in one since last year's. In January? So it's been more than a year. I don't even remember what was the last movie we saw in a theater...
The exploding paint can heat IS memorable and I love the Target meme. No lies detected.
XOXO
Thank the fat bassets I have kids who can remember stuff because I wouldn't have remembered without them.
DeleteIt's been so long since I have also been to the movies, not that I was a movie going kinda person. But when it was shut down during the pandemic, I suddenly wanted to go. But I wanted to go because I wanted the popcorn, not to watch a movie. I'm babbling.
ReplyDeleteYou should go, JM.
DeleteI'm pretty sure the last movie I saw in the theater was the Rise of Skywalker. Before that, I'm pretty sure it was The Last Jedi and before that The Force Awakens. I think you can probably see the trend going on there.
ReplyDeleteSo you are a Trekkie?
DeleteI haven't been to a movie theatre since A Star Is Born. Whew long ago. I love the IKEA meme. But you must explain to me why you hated the Morning Show.
ReplyDeleteI hope you found my explanation OK.
DeleteThat Target meme is so Balder Half! I stopped going to the movies before the pandemic. I figured I can fall asleep much cheaper in my chair at home. Yes, I'm at that sit still slide into sleep age.
ReplyDeleteI am at the point now where it is hard to stay awake in the movie theatre. Comfy chairs, darkness and I am out.
DeleteI miss going to movies (usually an early afternoon show) and then out to a Happy Hour. Perhaps soon? Exploding paint can hot! That is horrible to imagine. Fall is coming, right?
ReplyDeleteI hope fall is coming.
DeleteI figured the heat wave would be over by now. My grandmother owner a small store when I was young. We would call it a party store these days. Back then soda came in glass bottles. I remember during the hottest days of summer we would have to refrain from making loud noises. Because an unrefrigerated bottles of pop would occasionally burst. Does anyone else remember something like that?
ReplyDeleteI do remember getting soda in glass bottles but don't remember them bursting.
DeleteI haven't been to the movies in years. I used to take my daughter when she was younger but I don't have patience for idiots and got kicked out one time for yelling at teenagers who wouldn't stop kicking the back of my seat. lol
ReplyDeleteA darn good reason to avoid the movies.
Deletethis is the coolest weather we've had here since I can remember...and I'm old..
ReplyDeleteBeen a strange summer for sure.
DeleteWow that sounds hot. Here in the UK we have had 2 days of sun, and hopefully tomorrow will be hot too, and that will probably be it for this years summer. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteDon't think I'm quite ready to sit in a cinema yet, but we certainly have been eating out a lot recently.
Enjoy all of that sun, Joey. I think I would need more than that.
DeleteThat Target meme is right on ... target.
ReplyDeleteNicely done, Mike.
DeleteOur Lady of Lourdes, intercede for me and my family, cover us with your sacred mantle, I thank you in the name of the father of the child and the holy spirit amen 🙏
