Lights, Action!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.

The last month has been very busy on all front; work, home, you name it. We had a nice little break in the middle of November when we took four days and went to visit family in Newfoundland. I actually got out to see a movie. I went to see The Incredibles which was great. The original plan had been to see it weeks early, all of us, the whole family. But the movie is rated PG and my wife had concerns that it wouldn't be appropriate for a 5-year old Boy. So I went. And yeah, there was guns and shooting and explosions and implicit death. Action violence. But it was a great movie.

Yesterday Ann went back to work. Holiday over. The Boy and I went through all our Christmas lights, checked that they were all working, put the white strings up along the back deck, the white coil around the front pillar and the rest were strung in our cherry tree in the front yard. We were all done around quarter after three. I did a check on the computer and found the last showing of The Incredibles started in 5 minutes. But there would be commercials and trailers and ...

Me: Hey Boy. Want to go see the Incredibles?


Boy: Ummmmmm.... nah.


Me: Want to go and we won't tell Mommy?


Boy: O-KAY!
