Don't Close Them All

Most drive-in movie theaters haven't made it into the current day. The ones that have, at least around the twin cities are in pretty rundown shape.

But Jenny and I will fight for them.

We thoroughly enjoy a night spent at the drive-in, which we took advantage of for a date night tonight, seeing The Bourne Ultimatum and Transformers. It was a great movie night.

We look forward to being able to do it again sometime, but for that to happen, we can't let all of the drive ins close down.

The Runaround

I only got one "odd" question from yesterday's blog. It wasn't even odd, it was more of a "let's get this thing in gear" kind of question.

Nonetheless, it is one of the only 3 things that can't be found on the internet. I didn't read the question until 11:15 at night, which also left me unable to call in. I did send an e-mail to get the answers MSK, is looking for though, so I'm hoping that when I wake up tomorrow (it'll likely be afternoon before I wake up) that the answer will be waiting for me in my inbox.

Unless one of you knows what the permit and inspection requirements are to turn an unfinished attic into a master suite.

I've Always Wanted To Know

What are the kinds of things you've always wanted to know?

I don't have any schoolwork I need to do for over a month now, which means, I've got plenty of time to do silly research to answer interesting questions.

Is there something that you've always been curious about?

Like, why do they name the scores in golf things like, birdie, eagle, bogey etc.?

Or, how did April Fool's day start as a tradition?

What kinds of questions do you have that I can research for you?

Finding It Pleasurable

I'm a week clear of having done any homework.

That also means I'm at least a week clear of having to read any books just because I am forced to for class.

Reading sounded like an enjoyable entertainment activity again this evening, so I'll likely read a couple of the books I've been waiting to read in the next couple days.

I'm always looking for good book recommendations as well, so fire away.

Routine Hassle

Jenny's wallet got stolen today.

We thought it might have just been misplaced, but checking some online statements showed charges to three accounts on credit and debit cards that weren't from us.

This is a routine hassle in my life. My wallet was stolen in college, and shortly after that time, I gave my "process speech" for my public speaking class on "What to do if your wallet and/or identity is stolen."

It didn't take long to make all the proper phone calls. Some of the smaller detail things will need to be taken care of in person tomorrow, but overall, this is just one of life's hassles.

An unfortunate one at that.
