NaBloPoMo Day 2: These are O.R. Scrubs! - Rushmore Watch Party.

A long long time ago, in 2013 to be exact, Tom and I babysat my 6-yo twin nephew and niece for an entire day. I wrote about it here: https://waitingtogetthere.blogspot.com/2013/06/uncle-tom-and-aunt-stacey-best.html

One of our activities that day was to rehearse a skit and then perform it for my brother and Mary when they returned home. Our inspiration was a dramatic rendition of this scene:


It's from the movie Rushmore. The kids have, apparently, no recollection of their theatrical debut but I remember laughing so hard I could barely say my lines. "I like your nurses uniform, guy."

Today is a big day because we are hosting a Rushmore watch party. Tom will make spaghetti and meatballs, we'll have popcorn and left over halloween candy. We'll all watch the movie and then. If all goes according to my nefarious plan, we'll perform an encore version of the skit in question. Call it a 12 year anniversary redux. 

I'll let you know how it goes.
