mom picked me up about noon & we went to The Olive Tree Cafe for lunch. sadly, i wasn't expecting to go to a new place. my camera was still on my desk from uploading pictures instead of in my purse. so, no pictures from the cafe! *pout* i'm sure i'll go there again, tho, it was pretty tastey (for a Coke place, lol)!
i wanted to see eclipse or toy story 3 - mom & i had talked about seeing both of those last week. however, apparently she saw it w/ aunt jan over the weekend, because she forgot our entire conversation. i felt ... sad. i mean, half the time i feel like she doesn't listen to me, but to have it so blatantly proven... idk.
anyway, so we saw the last airbender, which was okay. there were some really great aspects, and some not so great aspects, but all in all i enjoyed it. mom, not so much, but she didn't like eclipse, either, and she even didn't really like toy story 3, which i think is just craziness! *laugh* oh, i tell you what - i am so NOT impressed by the way Rave runs things. this theatre has been around for YEARS, and i've been going there quite often since it opened in this location. when it was showcase, when it was national amusements, (when it was PEPSI, lol) it mostly made sense. altho, the NA phone system was crap - couldn't ever get a straight answer for showtimes, they at least had those showtimes on their handouts. the Rave handouts are ridiculous. for example, the current one says it's for shows July 1 - September 30. Then 1/2 the shows don't list ratings, and there are NO times listed. WTH?? how is this helpful? they're now a Coke establishment (but to be fair, it's good Coke). and today, their management didn't anticipate the volume (hello, holiday monday??) of customers. apparently they RAN OUT OF ICE and alllll their ice machines broke and they ran out of root beer, and 2 managers walked off the job!!?!!? seriously. oye. we said okay to the no ice in the coke, but then it wasn't even COLD coke. oye again.
we rounded out our day of fun at the DQ for some blizzardly treats. yum! : )
when i got home, it was back to the dvd's and getting started catching up on the blogs i missed over the weekend! i'm saddened, tho, because one of the blogs i follow has disappeared! and i can't even get to the profile to send challis an email to see what happened! *pout*
back to work tomorrow. one more episode of Angel & then i must get to sleep! i hope your monday went well! ttfn! (oh yes, and i got this nifty post card in the mail...woot! love it!)
