My Mall Excursion

My mother in law gave me a Macy's gift card for my birthday. Although I love new things, going in a mall before Christmas is not high on my fun meter. It ties with blood drawn, Mr. Armstrong's high school history class, or running trails in the Cross Country race. You can keep Stenky Creek!

Now that another Christmas has passed, I ventured back to the mall. I don't think I've been there since before Halloween. Spending a day at a mall meant material for my humor blog.

Did you know that for a mere $38, one can buy one's very own Michael Kors rabbit foot? Of course if you want toe nails, you're out of luck. Those must be extra.

And if you haven't thrown out enough money with your defective rabbit's foot, you can spend $58, plus tax, on a coin purse. The fact that this object is on the shelves for that price is pretty humorous. 

                         
Going through the mall, I spotted a manikin whose pants needed to be pulled up. Hey! It could be worse. One plastic chick wore NO pants.

 

Finally, I took a picture of, of, well you can decide what it is. It needs some sparkles to keep up with Elvis. I hope the lady who wears this shops at Victoria Secret for pretty underwear because it will show with this outfit!

Oh, and by the way, I bought exercise pants, a wallet, and a six dollar shirt. I still have $8 left on my gift card, too. Whoo hoo!

#MM: Adam Levine

Although I'm not a fan of the tattoos, I still love Adam Levine. Not only is he an amazing singer by his own right, but did you know he does great impressions, too? Take a listen.

And finally, take a listen to Adam Levine singing as ADAM LEVINE!

Star Wars

Last night, we ventured to the dark side by seeing Star Wars in our favorite theatre. For $7.50 a ticket, one gets to see a first run movie. Plus, the audience adds great entertainment with their timely comments.

"Don't go in there. He gotta knife! He gonna kill you!" etc.

Unfortunately, our screening of Star Wars turned out to be private, so we had to provide our own funny comments. The extra commentary wasn't nearly as fun as The Hobbit, but a private screening of a first rate movie during prime time was awesome!

Plus, for two more dollars, we got the cool 3D glasses.

Daniel sported a hipster look with his 3D glasses, but I thought of Elvis Costello. Mitchell looked pretty cool, too. 
         
             


The Star Wars flick was especially fun because a lot of the 1977 cast was in it. The humans aged a lot more than the others. Chewbacca hadn't aged one bit nor had Admiral Ackbar. Princess Leia didn't wear her gold bikini, but that was probably a good thing. The villain wasn't scary and . . . I can't tell you the other disappointing element of the movie or it will ruin it. Luke Skywalker needed more force but over all, I enjoyed Star Wars.

Not one single grey hair on Chewbacca!

Go see Star Wars.
