MommyJacking: The Hunger Games Edition
As we learned yesterday, it is utterly absurd to think that once you become a mother, you can take a vacation away from your family. But here’s something else you might not realize: You can’t go to the movies, either. Well, you can but there are certain restrictions and rules that apply, and the price of breaking those rules is getting publicly chewed out by your mom friends. That’s just how the whole motherhood thing works! It might not be “fair,” but whoever said that becoming a mom would be fair?
So here’s the deal. You can go to the movies, but you must wait at least 3-6 months after having a baby before even considering such a thing. When you do, make sure it’s a movie you really want to see, because once those allotted 120 minutes are up, you must go right back to your cage! Er, I mean your home. Do NOT ask your husband if it’s okay to attend more than one movie per quarter after that initial 3-6 month period, because the chances of him saying no are high, and you don’t want to start some kind of conflict or negatively impact your relationship. It’s not worth it!
And just because you might have an obsession with a cultural phenomenon like ‘The Hunger Games’ doesn’t mean you can take in multiple showings of the film even if you’ve been waiting for it to come out for what feels like FOREVER. You can’t be all, “Well, technically I can see three showings of ‘The Hunger Games’ because I’m willing to forfeit the next several months of movie-going in exchange for one week of Hunger Games geek-out bliss!”, because guess what? As a mother you don’t get to make those rules. Society already made them for you. Your job is to dedicate your life to your baby, not some stupid franchise. Sarah knows what I’m talking about. She has an “appetite,” too — for being a MOM!
