Ice Age 3 Poster

I saw the movie Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs today. Compared to the list of bad movies I saw this year, this one was the most enjoyable after Megan Fox 2. This was a good movie, an entertaining movie. Not the greatest movie and not expected to be. I finally got to see a decent movie. After paying for so many dumb movies this year, I got to see a movie that was good and it was FREE. That is right, a simple complaint to the manager made the movie free. And yes the complaint was valid and legit.

After the movie I dropped in a Brookstone store to get my massage. That’s right I go into Brookstone and Sharper Image when they were still in business and get a massage. One day I will buy one of those massage chairs but until then since I haven’t decided which one I like and they keep making them better, I can’t buy it yet. It’s not the price that is holding me back! Don’t you hate when someone is sitting on the massage chair and won’t leave?

Volleyball Diger

Luckily this time there were 2 chairs with just one in use by a young cute girl. I soon find out she had the better massage chair, but that is fine, can’t always have it all. I had a nice conversation with her while we both sat our asses down and refused to leave. Even her mother came by and asked if we were ever going to leave the chairs. Poor girl had some metal bracket or brace around her leg from the knee down that had a cover on it. The cover it seems was not just to hide the metal structure but also her scars. I was able to see one scar above this brace. I thought she was in some car accident. NOPE it was from volleyball. YES VOLLEYBALL. I never knew you can get so hurt in volleyball. She explained to me she joined a volleyball team and was playing a “digger” and explained what that is. She dove for a hit and I have no idea how twisted up her leg.

So as you can see, conversations with strangers can not only pass time but also be informative. So I got a free movie, a little massage and a nice chat with this cute girl. I thanked her for the chat and wished her well at which she was all blushing and smiling.
