On the bright side, here's a tip. Don't want anyone to sit next to you. Then wearing blue plastic gloves, and over-sized sweatshirt/hoodie, noise canceling headphones and a mask around the mouth and nose should do the trick. Nobody wanted to sit next to us and it was great!
Anyway, it's Monday and I'm rested and ready to rumble. Suck on that, corn! The goal this week is to continue downsizing the kitchen/lab and office. More about that another time. See you in four days, when I'll play catch-up on your blog posts.
Until then, have a yummy week.
Sorry you had a reaction just being in the theater. Yeah, I imagine people sat far away from you.
ReplyDeleteGreat movie, wasn't it?
LOVED IT!
DeleteNo corn can NOT do that!!! (neither can I, for that matter...you really ARE Wonder Woman!) And I'm totally trying your outfit as deterrent for neighbors during a movie next time I go.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're feeling better!
The outfit works, I'm tellin' ya'.
Deleteso sorry Ivy, at least you know what causes this. Hope you liked the movie.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Christine :-)
DeleteThanks for the tip, that could be very useful. But how could you hear the movie with the head-phones on?
ReplyDeleteI have bionic ears. So I always wear either those or ear plugs and sometimes, both.
DeleteGosh.
DeleteI'm seeing Civil War tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteVery cool. Enjoy.
DeleteI was wondering that about the earphones. So sorry you suffer so badly just from the smell of the stuff. Is it the corn or the stuff they put on it?
ReplyDeleteBionic ears, since childhood. So I have to wear them or earplugs.
DeleteNot sure about the stuff they out on, but for sure corn. If I eat it (which I no longer do), I turn into a hot mess.
Guess what? I bought asparagus today. Tim has never tried it and wants to give it a go. Did you get any yet?
My youngest son is taking me to see Civil War tomorrow as a Mother's Day present. Kids are great. Popcorn always smells so good to me at the theater but I never get it.
ReplyDeleteWe never got it either, even on the free popcorn days. Enjoy the movie. It was great fun.
DeleteLove your movie neighbor aversion strategy and glad that you are bouncing back so nicely! I wasn't aware someone could be sensitive to corn in that way, it makes me think of my corn-on-the-cob munch fest last night in a totally new way! Feel better-er :o)
ReplyDeleteWe used to LOVE those cob fests. Nothing for supper but lots of local corn. You lucky gal, you.
DeleteMaybe next time try a full haz-mat suit? Sorry to hear you still had a reaction. I'm dying to see "Civil War" but must wait until crowds die down a bit more. I'll probably go in early June. We went this weekend to "Keanu" instead. What a waste of money that was! The kitten hardly got any screen time at all.
ReplyDeleteSorry your movie was a waste of money, that blows. Yes, full haz-mat might have been a better way to go. I hear you on the crowds. We went to the 10AM movie, wasn't too bad. But then, no one wanted to sit next to me, so that was a bonus :-)
DeleteThat is a good way to drive away unwanted theatre seat neighbours.
ReplyDeleteIt was an added bonus.
DeleteThe smell of the "butter" that's not really butter makes me feel ill.
ReplyDeleteYes "butter" yuck!
DeleteWow! All that precaution and still got affected. So sorry. Was the movie worth it to you? I saw it yesterday and liked it very much.
ReplyDeleteLoved the movie. Could have done without the sick, though.
DeleteSorry to read you had a bad reaction ...
ReplyDeleteHope your week and your plans go well ...
All the best Jan
Thanks, Jan.
DeleteWow! Okay, I giggled a little thinking about that, but I absolutely hate that you still had a reaction. That does suck.
ReplyDeleteI giggled sitting there, when I waved to Tim, who was next to me.
DeleteYay for outclassing corn.
ReplyDeleteSmiling at the image of your 'stay away garb'.
Thanks, Elephant's Child :-)
DeletePlease, please, pleeeeeeeeeeeeaase tell me you took a selfie at the theater and you are going to post it...pleeeeeeeease!
ReplyDeleteReally sorry to hear about your reaction to corn :( I will be corn-free this week in your support!
I thought about it, I honestly thought about it but I didn't do it. Thanks for the corn-free support :-)
DeleteDumb ol' corn! That's a great tip for keeping people away. :)
ReplyDeleteDumb ol' corn! That would have been a great title.
DeleteLove the smell of popcorn but not the pretend stuff they put on it !
ReplyDeleteHappy to know you are feeling better.
cheers, parsnip
Thanks, Parsnip.
DeleteWet monkey balls with chips?
ReplyDeleteTriple cooked chips. Which was tge only good part of the meal.
DeleteThat's bad, having a reaction just being near the stuff....
ReplyDeleteHi Norma. Thanks for dropping by :-)
DeleteHoly crap stupid corn! Leave my friend alone so she can enjoy a movie in a theatre... So sorry that happened. I hope the movie was worth it. Can't wait to see it.
