Fail Tale
So … let me tell you about my night. As I mentioned earlier, I was allllllllllllll set to see The Twilight Saga: New Moon with my good friend Amber (who I hadn’t seen in many months so I was really excited to have a fun night with her) last night and, well, the night didn’t really turn out as planned. We met up for a fun dinner at the Cheesecake Factory and really got to catch up with one another. We made our way to the theater, got our popcorn and Cokes … walked into the theater and were surprised to see it so empty. “Where is everybody?” I asked aloud … little did I know that I had NOT purchased tix to see New Moon, my dumb ass purchased tix to see Twilight … again!
Amber, bless her dear sweet heart, was such a good sport about the whole thing. I asked her if she wanted to go elsewhere and she thought it’d be fun (and would make a good story) to stay and watch the movie again … so that’s what we did. I even brought along fun wax vampire teeth so that we could snap a fun photo together … that was really the only part of my plan that we off flawlessly:

While we didn’t get to see the movie we were planning to see, we did have a lot of fun together. We’re gonna try and do a double date with her BF Adam and my David sometime soon … but I’ll refrain from making the reservation. I’ll leave that task to someone more capable than I ;)
This afternoon, I’m going out to see New Moon at last and then tonight David and I are going to see the play The Santaland Diaries (based on the short stories of David Sedaris) starring Nicholas Brendon from Buffy the Vampire Slayer:

The play opens tonight and runs for a few weeks … I’m SO excited to see it :) After the play, we are making our way out to celebrate with our dear friend Gillian for her birthday!! It’s gonna be a bizzy day … happy weekend, y’all!!

Trent that made me giggle! At least you got to see Twilight in the theatre once more! I saw an early viewing of New Moon at 10pm last night in Saskatoon and I loved it!! It’s SUCH a different atmosphere & feeling than the first one, but it a good way. I can’t wait to hear what you thought of it!

That’s funny, I did something similar last year. Bought tix to a play and thought the back row was the front row because of the way the seating chart looked online. My husband was like u bought tickets in the back row. Duh. Luckily I was able to exchange them at the box office.

Sorry you bought the wrong tickets! I’ve done things like that before, and it’s embarassing. I hope the play is good. I read David’s book “Naked” and loved it.
