Wishing I Was There
At the midnight showing of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, that is. I know we’re going on Friday for sure since I already have the tickets, but I got a little pang of jealousy in my gut when I was watching the news at 10 and they showed a huge group of people counting down to seating time. Wahh!
I didn’t do much today besides laundry and cooking and all that. Mario took the Equinox (to save gas) so I had no means of transportation. Well, I did; I had his truck but he left it on Empty and I hate having to pray that I don’t stay stranded all the way to the gas station so I just stayed home. I need to keep the Equinox tomorrow since I need to give his truck payment and go to the bank. You know, all that lovely adult crap.
Anyway, Mario got home early from work for once. He had to *ask* though. I wish it were like this everyday. I made dinner (chicken tacos and rice) and Mario and Jorge were over at Mary’s so I took them food over there, fed the kiddos and Mom, Aly and I went to Mary’s to see Noelia’s wedding photos with Yadira, Elda and the girls. I’m still quite peeved that the darn photographer decided to keep the picture of me where I have my eyes closed. I even asked him to take another one, please, because I knew I’d closed my eyes and he said he did. LIAR!
Mario’s back from Jorge’s (he escaped for a while) and now I need to shower before he falls asleep and Aly wakes up. Hopefully she’ll go to sleep early tonight!
You would hate to drive my car, I am forever on empty I drive 34 miles one way trip to work, so 68 roundtrip and I have to fill up every 2 days, but sometimes ill risk it and almost on the big “E” driving home
a midnight showing? Sounds awesome! I wish I could’ve gone too. I usually don’t watch the movies though. Maybe I’ll see this one. I’m anxious to see how they portray it on film.
I’m scared shitless of driving cars that are on empty. I think Mario traumatized me, since I’ve almost been left stranded several times thanks to his nonchalantness about “making it” home LOL. Sure, he’ll make it home, but will we make it back to the gas station (which is on the corner of our street, so I don’t know WHY the man can’t just stop and put gas!).
I know! I can’t wait. Our family’s going today and I have to wait till Friday! We should have just gotten tickets for a late showing tonight after Mario got out of work! I’m on pins and needles here!
You know what sucks? I read that they’re totally leaving Quidditch out of this movie! It’s not fair that Ron finally gets on the team and they completely shot it down!
I totally agree. I think seeing the Quidditch matches is the best part.
