I’ve always been a huge Toy Story fan. We had a Buzz Lightyear back in the day and probably a Woody. And is there a house in America that did not own the Potato Heads? I seem to remember a bunch of other vegies as a kid: cuke, carrot, pepper. Anyone else remember these?
I digress.
When Jana asked us to see the 10:10 3D showing tonight we could not resist. I am convinced that we were the only ones in the theater that paid (tonight is Optimum Triple Play free night – we only have double). We could have also been the only ones over 25.
And of course we were the only ones tearing up at the end when Andy and his mom are in his empty room as he is leaving for college. No seriously, I can’t get away from this crap.
Jana: Mom, are you crying.
Me: Yes.
Jana: Oh jeez!
Hey, it was still Tuesday! Nonetheless, it was fun and I only napped a little bit at the beginning because, well because it was 10PM on a Tuesday night for G-d sakes.
Long and short of it, Toy Story is still great the third time around and kids leaving for college will haunt me for at least a few more months.

After your Tuesday post, I was going to comment that you should see Toy Story. Jenny and I went last night and I cried when Andy left…Jenny did too! Don’t know how I’ll do it in real life!
