Two on Tuesday

 

Does anyone else use the app Timehop?  I just downloaded it a couple of weeks ago and I am in love with it.  I don't have it post automatically to Facebook or anything, it's really just for me.  I get a kick seeing each day what I was doing on that date a couple of years ago.  It's really entertaining when the really old photo's show up.  Makes me laugh!

 

Over the weekend, I spent Sunday morning at the movies (with my coffee and a bagel).  As usual, I went to my favorite theatre and saw Guardians of the Galaxy.  I've mentioned before that I love the Marvel movies and this one was no different.  I had heard good reviews and the movie did not disappoint.  I really enjoyed it!  It might actually be one of my favorite Marvel movies to date.

2 on Tuesday

I have been back from Florida for almost a whole week and I still don't feel caught up on my sleep.  Works been crazy and just haven't got caught up yet.  Here's hoping this week allows me to do so.

The Tower of Terror 10M registration opened up recently (it's at 73% if you are thinking of doing it) and I am all registered! I am excited to participate in my first ever Tower of Terror.  I've heard great things about it and up until very recently, it's one of the few I haven't done.  I have to admit, I like the distance.  More than a 10K, but less than a half.

 If you are a runDisney fan, I'm sure you've heard by now that there is a new race (or you've been living under a rock).  It is the Avengers Super Hero Half Marathon.  It's going to be held in Disneyland the weekend after Wine & Dine.  I find the timing slightly odd - it's awfully close to W& D, don't you think?  I also can't believe it's going to be in 2014,  I thought it would have been sometime in 2015.  I've made no secret about my love of the Marvel movies, so I have a strong desire to do this race.  Registration doesn't open up until March 25th, so I've got some time to see if I can make it happen.

I may never go to a "regular" movie theatre again...

I am serious.  Like I have been totally jaded from going to any old movie theatre.  I know this is a non-running post, and totally makes me look nerdy, but I'm going for it anyway.  You probably don't know this about me (mostly 'cuz when else would I have talked about it?), but I kinda love the Marvel/Disney movies.  I just can't help it.  I know... nerd alert.

Anyways, I've been wanted to see the new Thor movie and I finally went and saw it last week.  I don't want to ruin it for anybody who hasn't seen it, so let me just say it was awesome.  Plus, staring at Chris Hemsworth (who is shirtless for a portion, thank you Marvel) and Tom Hiddleston (ok, so the Loki costume isn't great, but hello - have you seen him?) for 2 hours isn't the worst either.

Since the movie has been out for a bit, it wasn't in the theatre I normally go to.  But it was at a different one that was closer to my apartment.  When I went to buy the tickets, it made me select a seat.  I've only done that for Imax movies before so I thought it was slightly strange.

But then I arrived at the theatre and discovered that holy cow, this is not a normal movie theatre.  The seats were not only oversized, but nicely cushioned and they RECLINED.  It may have been the best movie watching experience ever.  I set my chair in the perfect reclined position and settled into watch the movie.  It was amazing.  By far the best way to watch a movie.  I don't think I can ever go to another movie theatre again.

And, it was only $2.50 more then normal theatres in NYC (which are already ridiculously expensive).  I'd spend $2.50 more to have a recliner.

Awesome seats

Settled in to watch the movie! (And yes, I still own/wear Uggs)

And if you needed any other reasons... they have the good Coke machine's were you can mix your flavor your self.  Epic win.  

Best Coke machine ever.
