Extreme distractions

So, we have been determined lately to try and distract ourselves from the ever-present sense of waiting. Fortunately we have a son who works at the movie theater and he can get us free passes. (Thanks Ty). In the past, we would be lucky if we saw maybe one or two movies in a year. I’ve seen two in the last week. And they couldn’t possibly be anymore diverse. I went with my 18 year old son to see the new Batman movie; The Dark Knight. (Which completely lived up to the hype…Awesome!) And then I went to see Mamma Mia with my bride. (Toe tapping, dancing in the aisles, sing along with ABBA tunes goodness! Whew!)

Talk about great distractions and even greater extremes. Although I’m still deciding on which was scarier…Heath Ledger’s terrifying portrayal of the Joker, or Pierce Brosnan attempting to sing in Mamma Mia.

Deliberate distractions are helpful during the wait. And today means another day closer.
