Hannah and I went to the movies today. For the longest time I knew that the Penn Theater had a kids movie on Thursdays during the summer, but because it was the only day that we had a car, other things ended up happening for us. Well, now that we have a car, those other things happen at other times and we got to go to the movie today! Kung Fu Panda 2 was playing today, but the theater was the star of the show. It's one screen in the middle of Plymouth. It was like walking right into the past! The theater was dark, comfy and there was no surround sound! We will definitely be going again next summer.
People are moving more and more. When I was a youngster, it was a rare instance for a friend to move away. Now it's me that moves away. We've moved a lot, especially when we first got married. It was something like five addresses and three states in the first four years of our marriage. We've slowed down a bit. In the midst of all that moving, we've made some friends along the way. I try to keep an open line in case of times of grief and celebration. One of the best tools I've found for keeping in touch with loved ones far away is Facebook. As much time as I could spend doing other things instead of checking it, it's the best thing I've found. It allows me to communicate with others, without having to call. I know calling is amazing, hearing people's voices, but for introverts, there are no body language clues for us to pick up on that help make our conversations easier. It's also why we prefer to video chat :-) Back to Facebook, some etiquette.
