The problem with watching That 70's show (a current obsession) is that I get songs stuck in my head that I didn't even know I *knew*.
*considers lobotomy to get "Fernando" evicted from brainmeats*

Got present wrapping done before eldest child woke up. And I only lost the scissors once. I'm callin' it a win.

When we found out that the Coraline movie was being released, Sam and I vowed to go if it was at all possible. We read the book together in preparation. But, it didn't seem right to go when the baby was in the hospital, and we had so much to catch up on when she came out.
Last week, I found a theatre that was still playing it, in Germantown, which is about an hour from here. But when they changed the lineup on Saturday, Coraline was gone. I'd checked online, so we weren't outside the theatre crying.
Okay, there must be *somewhere* still playing it...maybe a dollar theatre in the boonies?
The closest theatre playing the film was in Fairfax, which is about an hour and a half away, which would have been totally worth it in the first place, but this was Coraline 3-D. So, that's where we went today. Jeff and Charlie hung out in Barnes & Noble while we were in the theatre.
It was great. They'd changed a lot, of course, but the core was there. It wasn't nearly as scary/creepy as the book. Ms. Samantha says it wasn't scary at all. Though, she might have a different opinion if we hadn't read the book. Dunno...I just hope they do decide to release it in 3-D as well as 2-D.
I'm so, *so* glad that I got to take my kid to the movies.

Got my copy of "Ravens in the Library" today, and it is *pretty*. Can't wait to read it. Yay new books. :)
