What A Night!
Okay, yesterday I needed to go shopping and I need to get a new headset for my phone. They only seem to last a year and it’s been a year and it went this past week. So, Chuck and I decided to head into Erie, do the shopping, see a movie and get dinner. Well, that isn’t how it went exactly!
First, we went to Best Buy for the headset and I got the same exact one. I really like the sound quality just wish they lasted longer! After that is when it all started to go down hill! I pull out of Best Buy and all I wanted to do was go across the street to the movie theater. I was behind this bus and it seemed to be taking a REALLY long time at the light. It finally turned right and I went up to the light and it was red. It wasn’t turning green and people where honking and I’m like what is going on, and then we see it. There was an accident about a block down and in Erie, PA all the lights stay green for emergency vehicles. So, it was never going to turn green on my side so I had to turn right.
I turned right but then at the next light I needed to turn left. Ya, right! I FINALLY get across only to find that traffic is backed up by Lowes/Wal*Mart, so I had to drive up into the grass and get around people to make it into the theater parking lot!
Finally, we made it across the street and with 3 minutes to spare for our movie to start. We got tickets to “Salt” and we were so ready to just relax for a bit. It JUST got to the good part where she turns around and says, “I’m Evelyn Salt” and all of a sudden the movie shut off and sirens where going off and siren lights where flashing and a voice saying that EVERYONE had to evacuate the building and go to the top of the parking lot. After about 20 minutes the firetrucks finally show up and they gave everyone free movie passes because they were closed the rest of the night!!!
So, I say, lets go down to the dollar theater and see if they have anything. Well, on the way there we ran into ANOTHER accident that had traffic backed WAY up!! We FINALLY get to the other theater and they have nothing until 7pm. So, I said forget it, so we make our way back up peach street to Wegmans.
Man, Wegmans was REALLY overwhelming! It’s huge, people everywhere, we had no idea where anything was. By the time we left, we were a frazzled mess. I had enough and just wanted to relax so I drove BACK down peach street and back to the Millcreek Mall and we went to the Outback. We just got Cheesy Fry’s and their free bread, LOL! We just sat in there for over an hour relaxing and talking. We were home by 8pm, which is early for going out, LOL!
I hate only seeing 1/4 of a movie and NOT knowing the end! Nothing like NOT seeing a movie you paid for!
This morning I woke up VERY sick. Every time I moved I got so dizzy the world was spinning and I felt like I was going to hurl! I couldn’t move until 2pm! So much for church. I have to go in tonight as I am running projection. I think the pastor is going to show me how to run sound!! So COOL!!! I will be the only girl on the sound team! I’m such a AV nerd!
