My weekend was Epic (and I brought you some!)

By Mir

May 5, 2014

Hey, kids! I was away at Mom 2.0 this past weekend, which means I am suffering from an acute case of reentry this morning. (On the plus side, no one has asked me for a business card, today. On the minus side, there is not coffee available within 20 feet at all times, and certain furry creatures and nearly-full-size humans seem to want a lot of ridiculous things from me, like lunch and attention and stuff.)

Anyhoo, you know that these events often bring with them a fair amount of cool freebies, and although the very nice folks from Best Buy gave me a Misfit Shine, I will be keeping that because it’s weirding me that I can’t figure out how it knows when I’m sleeping. (But it knows. It’s freaky.) On the other hand, I somehow came home with three Blu-ray/DVD/Digital copies of Epic, so those I am going to give away to lucky Want Not readers!

I know it’s been forever since I did a contest. You should review the contest rules and regulations, then come on back here and leave a comment on this post by 9:00 p.m. Eastern (that’s 6:00 p.m. Pacific) on Wednesday, May 7th, 2014 for an entry. One entry per person, winners to be determined by my handy-dandy WordPress winner-picker-thingie, three winners will be announced on Thursday.

Ready? Go!

I’m sitting in the CHOA ER right now with an ankle injury. We are going to NEED a new movie! 🙂

Let’s make this boring Monday EPIC
Jennifer Landis on May 5, 2014 at 7:24 am

Would love a new adventure movie so I don’t have to keep hearing “Let it go!!! Let it go!!!” Over and over again! Gotta mix it up a little, especially with summer on the way!
Liz on May 5, 2014 at 7:29 am

Me!me!me!
Carolyn on May 5, 2014 at 7:32 am

Thanks, Mir!
Leslie on May 5, 2014 at 7:34 am

My 2 year old is just starting to watch movies… upon reviewing my collection pulp fiction probably won’t cut it so this would be perfect.
Tina on May 5, 2014 at 7:36 am

This would be “epic” if I would win! Sorry, I am not very original!
Rebekah on May 5, 2014 at 7:45 am

The Misfit Shine would creep me out, too. But Epic wouldn’t!! Awesome!
Diane on May 5, 2014 at 7:47 am

If it works like the Fitbit, it recognizes that decreased arm movement for a length of time means sleep. If it works like the Fitbit, it will also count time rocking in the recliner as steps taken.
heidi on May 5, 2014 at 7:51 am

I have not seen this yet but it looked cute. I am sure my kids would enjoy it. Thanks for the contest.
Kristin on May 5, 2014 at 7:51 am

Anna on May 5, 2014 at 3:11 pm

There’s a commercial right now that says “winner-winner-chicken-dinner.” I am afraid that “winner-picker” really only makes me think of noses. *ahem*
