The Year In Movies
With the end of 2008, I spent a few moments reflecting back on the last twelve months. It was a good year, filled with positive accomplishments for everyone in the family.
It was the year we fully committed to homeschooling by bringing our daughter home for second grade.
It was the year I finally finished that basement project, giving us a 400 sq. ft. classroom/guest room/play room.
It was the year we visited gorgeous Arches National Park and hiked up to Delicate Arch.
There were so many other wonderful personal and family experiences, and yet I can't help thinking that one thing will forever stand out in my memory about 2008.
It was the year I started falling asleep during movies.
Either I'm just overly tired all the time, or Hollywood is making some seriously boring movies. Maybe it's a combination of both.

When ever I use to go to the cinema with me lads, especially to watch 'kids' films.... within 15 minutes into the film I would be out like a light LOL....
And now at home, if we are watching a film that is really a 'boys' film as such, I do the same LMFAO....

You lasted way longer than me, man. Movies are better than any sleeping pill on the market.
I'm usually good for 1/2 hour but I will know within 5 minutes if I will make it through or not. Either I'm good or we might as well give up on it.
I just finished reading a small little memoir called "The Film Club", about a Dad that allows his son to drop out of school if he will watch at least three movies with him a week, the Dad's choice of course. You might like it, I did.
Sorry about that, The Stickman
