Today marked a couple of NSVs for me. We went to the movies this afternoon and two things happened that have not happened in quite some time:
- I didn’t get popcorn. This is a very big deal for me, because popcorn is one of my absolute favorite snack foods of all time. I really had to fight Fat Girl on this one, because they were popping it fresh. And as I approached the concession stand to buy a bottle of water, I kept eying the popcorn cascading out of the popper, and smelling it…it smelled SO GOOD! But when asked if I could be helped, I simply asked for a large bottle of water, paid for it and WALKED AWAY. Also? I’d packed some jerky in my bag (shhh, don’t tell on me!) as a substitute so that made it slightly easier to walk away from the popcorn (but still difficult).
- My husband and I could both put the armrests on the seats down and were not sitting in each other’s space. This is also a big deal, because before, we always had to put the armrests up, and even then, it was still pretty uncomfortable. Not any more!
