Yeah my hubby dragged me to the theater yesterday to see Avatar: The Last Air Bender The Movie in 3D and trust me on this, I prefer the animated series to the movie! All through the movie I was sitting in my seat thinking 'Are you EVER going to SHUT UP Katana?! Geeze you've been yakking for the last twenty five minutes of this movie! SHUT UP ALREADY! GEEZE You've already given up critical details of your mission and NOW you're saying gobbledygook! SHUT UP!'
God! Why couldn't they adapt the animated series to movie form?! Now THAT would've made the time I sat in an uncomfortable position worthwhile! But nooo! They had to go do a live action piece of crap! If you expect me to sit through a movie based on one of my other favorite anime's then you could at least do the animated series justice! Aang was HORRID! The sound effects? Crappy, the special effects? Cheesy! The dialog? Tedious!
The characters just wouldn't shut up! Every five minutes they HAD to quip a stupid old saying! After the movie was over my husband was like a five year old kid who had just got through seeing The Ninja Turtles on the big screen for the first time! It was 'Did you see that scene where Aang summoned that great big gust of wind and blew down the enemy fortress?! Wasn't that AWESOME?!'
After listening to that over and over and over and over again I finally snapped and said 'For the love of GOD you've obviously NEVER seen the animated version have you?! It's TEN MILLION times better than that piece of shit we just spent an hour and forty three minutes watching!'
It's not my husband's fault the movie wasn't worth the price of admission but for a show that started an entire hour late because of a bunch of kids that were there for a birthday party were still getting to their seats, it just wasn't worth sitting in a hot car parked directly in front of the theater doors since 8 A.M. with greasy A&W breakfast to eat isn't my idea of how I envisioned how I wanted to spend Friday at all!
But did hubby notice that I was dehydrated,hypoglycemic,starving and down right bitchy after not eating anything but a greasy A&W Breakfast?! Noo, the only thing he could think about was getting into the box office,getting his tickets, his concessions, getting into the theater and getting settled into just the right seats in just the right position to maximize the viewing of the movie with stupid over sized 3D glasses that were so annoying and awkward with my own eye glasses underneath that half way through the movie, I couldn't ignore the twinge in my lower back anymore.
I got up and walked out of the theater leaving my hubby glued to the screen,went and got a ticket for Despicable Me in 3D! Now THAT was worth my time and money! Plus there weren't any screaming,crying,laughing,whispering and giggling kids in that theater! Ahh peace and quiet! I guess some where along the line my husband leaned over to whisper in my ear something related to the movie but found out I was gone! After yapping on and on for an hour about the movie, he harped on and on and on and on about how I 'abandoned' him in the theater all by himself.
Aww boo-hoo! he KNOWS I've already seen Avatar The Last Airbender with my younger brother whose birthday was on Friday. I don't know HOW many times I told him 'Sorry I've no interest in seeing that movie again! I already seen it once and I'm not inclined to go see it again. If I DO see a movie again, I'd rather like to see Despicable Me instead.' His reply 'But HONEY! You KNOW I'm DYING to see this movie in 3D with you! Don't be a poor sport! I've already got two tickets to go see it!'
If you've read the review of Avatar: The Last Air Bender then you know my position is in alignment with the critics: This movie needs to be put out of it's misery and FAST!
Pinky: Gee Brain,what do you want to do tonight? NARF! POIT! Z
I so wanna see Despicable Me. :DD Cranky Russians FTW.
Despicable ME is worth sitting through. Too bad I can't say the same thing for The Last Air Bender. Dear GOD it was boring! My husband? LOVED IT! Still texting his friends about the movie. Some Days I wonder if I married a GIRL instead of a man!
Imagine if it was Twilight he was obsessing over. It'd be ten times worse.

He's moved from obsessing over Twilight to obsessing over Avatar. Next obsession: Cats and Dogs or Grown Ups. At this rate I give up.
Sitting in a car whose owner is to freakin cheap to have the A/C fixed in 98 degree heat for seven and a half hours. Each time I said 'Hon, it's too hot to sit in the car, I'm going to the mall to cool down alright?' I was greeted with 'We agreed that we would wait for the box office to open up to get our tickets,then our refreshments then get into the theater and get our seats and wait for the show to begin! Why are you reneging on our deal?!' All I could say was 'Hon, it is way past ninety degrees outside add on top of that five more degrees inside this car and it is past dangerous and into down right critical! I HAVE to get out of this car,get something other then greasy bacon,eggs,sausage and hash browns with butter soaked toast with questionable coffee for breakfast and a disgusting lunch of sweet and sour sauce soaked rice with half cooked vegetables and tough as nails meat with lueke warm tea! I need real FOOD! Not theater hot dogs that are cold and not edible! I'm over heating,dehydrated, hypoglycemic AND I'm getting very bitchy! I'm going to Subway to get a sub,a salad and a nice cold cup of pop! Enjoy your sweat box!' He wasn't happy but I got something in my stomach to make the cramping go away then I went to DQ and got a Large Cookie Dough Blizzard and sat and enjoyed it while bringing up my sugars from the danger zone.
The last obsession was Avatar another disgusting waste of time.
I heard that someone got a sandwich at Subway and the wrapper was covered in blood.
Cookie Dough.. ahhh Oops. (wipes up drool)

Oh if only that were true. There are days when I would LOVE to kill the guy but the last thing I want to do is spend 20-life in the pokey. Then there are the days when I just want to take him to the middle of the bridge and throw him off! He can get SO ANNOYING! Especially when it comes to food! He's like a toddler! 'I don't LIKE Ranch Dressing!' well don't get ranch get Italian! or something as simple as deciding if you want dessert with the meal or take the receipt up to the counter and have them make it after you've eaten supper or lunch can become a humongous source of humiliation for me. He'll want a medium banana split blizzard and he'll want it later. I won't say nothing and he'll make a big ass of himself when we get our drinks and sit down saying something like 'Well I don't want my ice cream to melt while I'm eating my chicken wrap! I HATE melted ice cream! Why are you being so MEAN to me?!' ME?! I haven't said boo and already he's accusing me of being a bully! Sometimes if the heat and humidity get to be too much, he REALLY becomes a big baby! Just last Monday during the height of the heat wave at 4 A.M. I got up to use the washroom and turn up the A/C just to get some relief from the night time heat, right as I got back into bed he says 'I want the quilt on the bed! Don't be such a big bully! Let me have the quilt!' WTF?! I just came from adjusting the A/C, I'm half awake,drenched with sweat and sick from the humidity and suddenly I'M THE BULLY?! All because I said it's too hot for a quilted blanket?!
That's weird. Usually it's the woman that's cold because of her lack of surrounding muscle (men's muscles are distributed around the body while women's are more concentrated towards the inner organs).
And who hates melted ice cream? It's awesome.

I'm former Gymnast,Figure Skater,Ballet Dancer,Hockey Player and I used to do mixed martial arts but I still keep in shape so I still have a decent amount of muscle on me. But unfortunately I have sensitive skin and I get hot really fast and I can only tolerate so much cold before goose bumps start breaking out and I start shaking and shivering. My husband? He can sit for HOURS in a hot car and shop in the coldest of stores in nothing but a danged tank top and not even feel the least bit cold!
When I got back from doing some retail therapy after a nice lunch, the temp according to the sign across the street from the bank read 101 Degrees at 4 P.M. and he was STILL sitting in the driver's seat, windows rolled UP, A/C OFF! I banged on the driver's side and said 'Get your damned ass out of that car NOW! I'm fed up with you acting like a child! Now come on or I call your folks!' That didn't budge him so I said 'You have until the count of three to get your sorrowful ass out of that car! If you don't get out of that hot car I'll start treating you the age you're acting!' THAT got him out of the car! The thought of being treated like a two and a half year old wasn't very appealing to him.

I so wanna see Despicable Me. :DD Cranky Russians FTW.
