Two Movie Day

Today, despite being overcast and a bit rainy, was a near perfect day. Kicked the day off with a rainy, hilly seven mile trail run. Rainy might not sound like a good time but sometimes it's fun battling the elements.

Shortly after that, we took the kids to see Indiana Jones. I don't know to say, except that the reviewers are probably right: lukewarm at best. I mean, it's Indie, so it' can't possibly be all that bad, but it was definitely the weakest of the three. It felt a bit uninspired and the plot was weak. I mean, aliens? What up with that? It seemed more an homage to some of Spielberg's other movies than anything else.

After that, a little baseball with the kids, and the dinner with the wife (at the greatest Puerto Rican restaurant this side, of well, Puert Rico. After that the wife and I went to yet another movie, a super rarity in our lives. This one was Missing Sarah Silverman (or some variation thereof). In a certain sense, it's similar to my mini review of Indie; it was undoubtably entertaining but probably at the bottom of the Judd Apatow barrel. It certainly had a few funny scenes though.

Anyway; solid day all around a nice kickoff to the much needed long weekend.
