Day 3 of 30 Day Photo Challenge - Tradition
This is my friend Ivy and I at the movie theater tonight (I MADE her take this picture with me... she wanted me to just take a pic of the popcorn bucket). We have a standing tradition of going to the movies about once a week together. We've been doing this for well about 5 years now I guess. We both love movies and popcorn and it's a nice time to catch up during the dumb commercials before the movie starts. I'm so very grateful to have Ivy as my friend!

30 Days of Gratitude 2013 Edition - Day 1: Color
It's that time of year again! It's time for the 30 Day Gratitude Photo Challenge . It is one of my favorite things, so I'm going to try and do it EVERY day this year.
Day 1: Color
Brown the color of my coffee that I desperately need every morning. Today I broke down and stopped at my favorite local coffee house Port City Java and got an iced skim Carmelo Leche (similar to the Starbucks Caramel Macchiato).

Movie Monday - The World's End
The World's End is about a bunch of old high school friends in England who get back together to attempt an epic pub crawl they did as young men in their hometown. Gary played by Simon Pegg is the aging addict ring leader who rounds up his old school mates who are rather relucant to do this all again. Gary pretty much cons all his old buddies into heading to their hometown and start their pub crawl. About 2 or 3 pubs in the old friends along with Sam played by Rosamund Pike (the sister of one of the friends and an old flame of Gary's) discover that their hometown has been take over by alien robots who bleed blue ...... um lube. Ok anyway they continue on with the pub crawl because if they don't they will be figured out and turned into robots too. Their mission is to make it to the last pub on the list The World's End. So as not to spoil the whole movie I will stop there because you don't need to know anymore for this review and it's always good to let the movie actaully tell you the whole story.
I enjoyed the movie while I was watching it. I laughed a lot and enjoyed Simon Pegg and Nick Frost as Andy. Once I left I though it seemed more and more silly. This was way more my kind of movie than Ivy's. I am a sci fi nerd so this appealed to me more than her and I love Simon Pegg. It was a fun watch while your in the moment but forgetable.
My rating is 2 1/2 pop corn puckets out of 5.

Movie Monday - The Way Way Back
The Way Way Back follows a shy, nerdy 14 year old kid named Duncan played by Liam James on a summer trip to the beach with his mom and her boyfriend and his daughter. The boyfriend Trent played by Steve Carell is a smile wearing asshole, so when he's being an asshole it doesn't quite feel as nasty but it actually feels worse later. Trent is an asshole to Duncan but never really in front of Duncan's mom Pam played by Toni Collette. Duncan is naturally having issues fitting in with Trent's daughter who is older and all her friends so Duncan stumbles into and unlikely friendship with Owen played by Sam Rockwell the manager of a aging water park. That is really the plot right there with some twists thrown in and finally the shy boy comes into his own. Sam Rockwell makes this movie along with Allison Janney who plays the hysterical drunken neighbor. I was also impressed at how well Steve Carell plays an asshole, which is against his usual character type. This movie was funny, sweet and a little sad all at the same time. Ivy and I both really liked The Way Way Back. I would even go so far to say it's one of the best movies I've seen this summer. It's not really typical summer movie fare but I liked the break from the action packed box office stuff that's out. I am giving The Way Way Back 4 1/2 out of 5 popcorn buckets!
