Having such a wonderful weekend. Sat around watching movies, playing online and squeezed in a little exercise on Saturday. Today we did much of the same until noon, at which time I headed to Birmingham to catch a couple of the last films at the Sidewalk Moving Picture Festival with my little Robin. Loved Ready, Set, Bag, a flick about those who aspire to be the fastest and most accurate grocery bagger in the nation. It's inspiring to watch people do what they love to do. I don't think it matters what you do in life as long as you either enjoy it or can find a way to enjoy it. There are those jobs, I've had a couple, that no matter what you do, it's never going to be fulfilling. It usually involves working with some crazy bat killjoy. Obviously all these people work at the best grocery stores EVER! Heck yea, I'd work at a grocery store if every one was so nice. To be honest, I'd love working at our local Piggly Wiggly, here in Cleveland, Alabama. It the only place I buy my groceries if I can help it. So friendly. No one has really mastered the bagging thing. I throw them off a little walking in with my 5 eco-bags. They know I expect them to cram all my groceries in them or I'll leave with some unbagged. It's never a problem and they dig the bags, but they are hesitant to put some stuff together. I assure them it's fine and everyone is happy. The second film was Evil Things. I got off a couple of screams despite the fact that the found footage horror films are so over. Last years Dead Snow and House of the Devil rocked so hard! We even added them to our home library of horror movies. So screaming about three times due to boo! techniques, thinking these people were to stupid to be alive after getting lost in the woods, and never once seeing anyone actually get killed was quite the let down. Regardless, I got in some quality Robin time. I wish we could all still live together, like the hippies we used to be, but dadgumitall, I guess we had to grow up...sort of. Hello, October :) Time for horror movies galore, haunted houses, and the goodies that go with them.
