I had a quiet week of Spring Break with my son. It was really nice to just have a break. We attempted to see The Hunger Games movie but the theater sound system was so loud that we had to leave. Personally, I don't understand why they have to blast the sound so loud but this was outrageous. It was so loud, just during the previews, that I had to ask three times to turn down the sound. We even had earplugs and it was ear piercing. We finally decided to leave. Sadly the management did not seem to care very much. They said that they tried turning the volume down but it went up instead, really?! If there were technical difficulties they should have given everyone the option to see the movie at another time. We got a refund and won't be going back to this theater, it was our first time there. We will stick to our local theater.
I had some issues with leaving comments on blogs but finally figured out that I had to sync my google accounts and that allowed me to comment. It was frustrating as I couldn't leave comments on any blogger blogs. I also had to figure out some changes at WP blogs so that I could leave comments and got that worked out as well. I thank those who left comments and emailed suggestions to help me out. I've begrudgingly switched over to the new blogger format and don't care for it but will have to adjust and hopefully find new benefits to the change. I plan on visiting blogs and commenting more this week.
I have had a slow reading week but hope that changes soon. I am reading and thoroughly enjoying A Grown-Up Kind of Pretty by Joshilyn Jackson.
All the mess with comments was so frustrating. I'm glad you got things figured out.
ReplyDeleteMy blog is on WP. I wonder if anyone had issues leaving a comment.
ReplyDeleteI really want to read the JJ book soon - it's on my iPod. Have a great week, Bonnie!
I'm trying out the reply feature for the first time! I do think that comments may be restricted on WP as you have to set up an account to comment. Although, the same goes for blogger so it will even out I imagine.
DeleteI've been so frustrated with WordPress for the past week. I finally gave up and set up a WordPress account (not an actual blog) that allows me to go that route. But it shouldn't be so hard to comment!
ReplyDeleteLisa, I already had a WP account but it's the same with blogger..you need an account to comment. I had more problems with blogger and syncing my google accounts than WP!
DeleteGlad you got the commenting issues sorted out.
ReplyDeleteDon't you hate it when they change things that were working just fine as is???
ReplyDeleteThat's crazy about the movie theater! I'm glad that they refunded you the money though. I had hoped to go see The Hunger Games tonight but as I was driving my son to the Amtrak station Saturday morning my front brake line blew out and now we're down to one car. The hubby is working nights so that leaves me with no wheels! I might have to go see a matinee while he's sleeping tomorrow especially if it rains!!
Hope you have a great week !
Im going to wait for the movie to hit iTunes and then watch it. I have too much trouble with theatre seats now. I finally got it figured on the whole commenting mess. I don't understand why they have to mess with something that was working just fine.
