Chariot Madness
Thx to my elite move renting status I decided I would bring home some free movies to my family. I was walking through the drama section (with my eyeballs 4 inches from the movies b/c I forgot my glasses) and Chariots of Fire randomly caught my eye. I haven’t seen it in so long and I really wanted to watch it. However, my family isn’t crazy like me and I figured they would appreciate something a little more…well, a little bit more not about running. But maybe they would want to get psyched up before our race? Okay, that is a really dorky thought and it’s just INVITING them to make fun of me for bringing Chariots of Fire in the door and asking them to watch it with me. I decided that whatever decision I made regarding the movie I had to get out of the video store immediately b/c it was late and I had to do things like pack. The outcome: My family already knows I am a dork and they make fun of me anyway, so why not go down watching a movie I want to watch.
13 hours later I walked in the door in NJ and laughingly told my dad, “Hey, I brought Chariots of Fire for us!”
“Funny, so did you brother. He wants to watch it before the race.”
Gotta go, we're watching it now. Good luck Turkey Trotters!!
