Yesterday...
The Skeleton Key with Mom & Aunt
--We are the only ones in the theater, which means we can talk all the way through. Most of our comments revolve around the fact that Kate Hudson's character is a FRICKIN' MORON.
Mom: Um, if there's a creepy rattling door in a creepy attic, DON'T OPEN IT.
Aunt: Have none of these characters ever seen a movie before?
Me: Unless everyone in this film has spent their entire life living in a box, this level of stupidity is not only ridiculous, it's anachronistic. A lack of meta is now an ANACHRONISM.
--Kate Hudson applies for a job at a creepy house in the middle of a swamp where everyone and everything is CREEPY.
Me: There is absolutely no reason to take this job.
Mom: None whatsoever.
Aunt: None.
Peter Sarsgaard: Hi. I work here.
All: Never mind.
--Then, half an hour before the end, I guess the "plot twist." We go get sushi.
While we're waiting, I express a preference for pajamas.
Aunt: Once you're having sex regularly, you'll change your mind. You'll never want to wear pajamas again.
Which makes for a nice transition into today...
The 40-Year-Old Virgin with Mom & Dad
--Seeing a raunchy sex comedy with your parents is not at all uncomfortable.
Then, Steve Carell goes to get his chest waxed.
Mom: That may hurt, but it doesn't hurt as much as a Brazilian.
Me: Er, I bet.
Mom: You know, a Brazilian wax.
Me: Yeah.
Mom: (Stage whispers) I've had one!
Me: Okay! Thank you for that.
So...officially one month and eight days until I get to move out. ::smiles weakly::
