"Any fool knows men and women think differently at times, but the biggest difference is this. Men forget, but never forgive; women forgive, but never forget."— Robert Jordan

A Brag Moment

I know, I'm always bragging. But this time I'm not bragging about my kids. I'm bragging about my brother Mike. He's the Assistant General Manager to the brand new Chunky's Cinema Pub in Nashua, NH. This is the single largest restaurant in New England now. And Michael is the assistant manager. Isn't that amazing?? Last night they had a friends and family night as kind of a dress rehearsal before the grand opening (which is tonight). Over 700 people showed up!! They had free movies, free dinner, drinks, snacks, appetizers... even free video games and massage chairs! LOL!! I was so impressed, no... proud... no... AWED at how Michael handled himself and his staff. He's been working his butt off getting things ready for the opening and it really showed. Everything was amazing. It really hit me that he's an adult now. It's hard to explain, but he was always just my "little brother Mike" to me before, but last night I saw him in a whole new light and I spent all night thinking about it. The poise, self-control, self-confidence in which he handled himself was amazing. I'm still overcome with pride thinking about it.

If you live in the area, you should definitely catch your next movie there. There's seven cinemas, seats over 1000 people, leather "Lincoln Continental" bucket seats that recline and a full pub menu. :)

From the Chunky's website:
What is Chunky's all about anyway?Well what we do here at Chunky's is pretty amazing. First, we seat you at a table in one of our spacious cinemas. Depending on the cinema your movie is playing in, our tables are designed to accommodate 2 to 8 people. Your leather chair is the driver or passenger seat from a Limousine and will have one armrest, recline, and is on wheels. Next, why not check out our diverse menu. Your waiter or waitress will be around to take your order so you don't have to miss any of the good parts! Quench that thirst and grab a bite to eat. Our menu selections currently include beer & wine, (21 and over only) soft drinks, and a variety of pub-style food selections. Get there early and enjoy your meal before the movie starts. Most theaters will open at least an hour before the movie starts. You may also order throughout the movie.

I've never been to one of those type of theaters. They have them on the West Coast too. They seem like a great idea, and from their website, the admissions and snacks are much cheaper than a regular theater. Bonus points all around. We'll have to try it soon.

Congrats to your brother - sounds like he's doing a great job! It's weird to realize your kid brother is finally an adult.
