Maybe Next Time...

Well… I did not make it to the movies last weekend. Mom and I watched Twilight on Friday night and New Moon on Saturday night. But then she didn’t answer me when asked about plans for seeing the movie on Sunday. I didn’t find out until mid day that she’d been enduring frequent headaches and back pain for days. Mighta been nice to know that in advance, not that we wouldn’t have watched the DVDs anyway, but so I didn’t feel blown off Sunday morning. She mentioned seeing if there was a matinee time after work. I guess she thought the pains would go away. But a) the times were too close to her shift end time and b) the headaches and back pains have yet to go away.

Now I’m torn. I told myself I wouldn’t miss the movie in theatre. I don’t want to wait until it’s gone and it’s too late. But this time around it’s not like she’s blowing me off. Well unless subconsciously she still wasn’t ready to go and thus caused the physical pains. So I don’t know what to do. This weekend there’s all these movies I’d like to see out. Movies I know she’d like too. I’ll see them all eventually, I’m sure. Dad will likely buy them and I’ll borrow them. Or I’ll catch them on HBO when they get there. But some movies you just want to see on the big screen, y’know?

So… What to do? What to do? Part of me wants to say, screw it and just go alone. Eventually, that’ll be the way to see movies, right? Issi’ll move away. Sarah already lives away. Mom’s like never leaving the house. And I think Dad still isn’t ready to enjoy movie going either. He went for Avatar because I so desperately wanted to see that one. I haven’t had a movie that I wanted to see THAT badly yet. I mean I WANT to see Eclipse, but I’ll live if I don’t y’know? And that leaves who else? Nana? She says she wants to see this movie or that, but the woman can’t sit still for five minutes let alone two hours. It was a miracle the time we saw one of the Lord of the Rings movies… (For two reasons, sitting still and movie choice! :P )

Anywho… If I go, I’ll just ask Mom if she’d mind me going alone. I mean if I went with someone, she’d not mind. She’d be jealous but she wouldn’t mind cuz I was having fun with someone and she wants me out having fun. We’ll see. Eventually I’ll have to get used to it if I want the theatre feel that or make new friends (cuz I do that so easily :P).
