Out of It
Aside from my attempted "Comeback" (see previous post), I discovered I have been "out of it". I live over in Burbank, and consider myself to be fairly Burbank-Savvy. Then the other night, reality struck and I had a rude awakening.
My sis and family wanted to meet somewhere for dessert the other evening and so I asked her where she wanted to go, and she said "Pinkberry." Perfectly fine with me as I am a big fan, and so my brain was quickly scanning to see where the closest locale would be for all of us to meet at, The Americana at Glendale? Perhaps on Larchmont? or maybe even the Grove? hmmm, then she dropped the bomb. "There's one just down the street from you, across AMC!..." she says.
WHAT! STOP THE PRESSES! There is a Pinkberry just minutes, I mean seconds away from me and I had no clue! Apparently, it's been here for months, along with a whole plethora of other stores, restaurants and even a giant condo complex and new parking structure! All this, right in front of my nose and I never saw it! I was seriously in shock as we pulled into a whole new world. Yes, cue the flying carpet. I felt like a tourist in my own town. A stranger in my own home.
Ok I have a good excuse though. This whole new world is situated right across the big AMC theatre complex here in Burbank, and so suffice it to say, the hubby and I haven't been to the movies in ages. In fact, drumroll please, our last movie was Transformers at the Arclight! That's what happens when you pop out a lil one. Blockbuster Ticket or Netflix become your best buds. So no movies, means no venturing out to the theatres, which further means, no discovering there is a PINKBERRY right down the street from you!
Yup, I've been out of it. And it doesn't look like I'll be getting back into it anytime soon.
