The Day of Tues

Nothing exciting ever really happens on a Tuesday. It is a day that is often overlooked, since it's not really at the beginning or the end of the week. However, this past Tuesday my mom and I decided to appreciate this neglected weekday. Last Saturday we saw Harry Potter while my cousins and aunt saw Tangled so we decided that it would be fun to go see it sometime soon. Having completed my homework early for once, Tuesday seemed like the perfect day to go.

At around 4 in the afternoon, we made popcorn at home and put it in large ziploc bags to smuggle into the movie in order to avoiding paying 5-6 dollars for popcorn. We headed out to Blue Oaks (so happy there's a theater so close now) and bought tickets for the 4:45 show. Since it was a weekday, there were only elderly people and some parents with very young children there. Munching on our illicit popcorn, we sat near the back row and watched Tangled in 3D. It's one of the cutest movies I've ever seen and really funny too! There were probably about 10-15 people total watching the movie.

We left at around 6:30 and drove to the Fountains for some shoe shopping. It was like a little winter wonderland town there, all decked out for the holidays. We stopped by DsW shoes and after that Payless before heading home. My mom had just bought a new electric griddle that day and we tested it out by making pancakes for dinner. Yum! For the rest of the evening we relaxed, drinking tea and watching Frasier on Youtube haha. I probably could have used this time to study for the numerous upcoming tests, but I'm glad we took advantage of this Tuesday for some valuable mother-daughter bonding time. Who says no one ever does anything on a Tuesday?
