Damn Boy! Are you the Sun?

Getting back into the blogging routine has been a lot harder than I thought it would be.  Those who posts regularly, with new content-- I am incredibly impressed!

We drove up to MSP Airport yesterday-- my Mom was flying back to Denver.  After that we took the kids to Mall of America for a bit.  That place-- I have a love/hate relationship with it.  A huge indoor amusement park when it's raining and cool outside?  Yes please.  Urban Outfitter's and all the BUY! BUY! BUY! consumerism- not so much.  Also, when did I stop shopping at Urban Outfitters?  I used to walk into that store and need to practice some serious self control because- OMGRZ errthang was is cute.  But, now-- I couldn't get out of there fast enough!  The store... it's just trying too hard.  Way too hard.

I do wish they had a shirt that said this:
Damn Boy

I mean, that's some funny stuff right there!  You know you laughed!

Last night, Garrett and I watched House at the End of the Street on Netflix- it was good!  For those of you not familiar- it's a horror/suspense film starring Jennifer Lawrence.  Here's the synopsis from IMDB:

A mother and daughter move to a new town and find themselves living next door to a house where a young girl murdered her parents. When the daughter befriends the surviving son, she learns the story is far from over. 

There seems to be a lot of mixed reviews on the film but Garrett and I really enjoyed it.  The story isn't your typical hot chick/no storyline/slasher film.  Granted, there were some parts that made me a little confused, like why all the teens in the town hated Ryan so much.  But, overall I wasn't expecting a majority of the plot twists and the ending left you sympathizing with the bad guy.  (I'm a sucker for that.)

Have you seen House at the End of the Street?  What did you think of it?  What about Urban Outfitters?  Yay or nay?

  2. I haven't seen that movie (not much of a horror fan) but I do always get a kick out of Urban Outfitters when I go in.

    1. Neither am I-- but I like a good suspense film now and then. Slasher films- ugh! No way!
