Bad news: It was a movie she thought I'd like. I am really that much of a nerd.
So I get up this morning and my alarm clock hadn't gone off. This happened.
Clock: 11:00
Me: That can't be right, I'm supposed to be at work at 11:00.
Clock: You're right, it's not right. 11:01.
Me: ...you know, other people are late to work because they were out all night drinking and having wild sex.
Clock: 11:02.
Me: It took a minute to say that?
So I get in to work, no shower, no breakfast, no nothing. I can only imagine what the line of people (!) at the box office think as they see a blur with bedhead rush by, then two minutes later the box office opens. By the way, guys? It's November. Why are you watching A Christmas Carol? We don't even have it in 3D!
Then, no kidding, this happens.
Woman: (indicating someone in a stroller) Do we have to pay for shim?
Me: How old is she?
W: It's a boy and he has cerebral palsy.
Then I slipped on a banana peel to round out the cliched shenanigans. I swear, I'm the comic relief in someone else's Hero's Journey. Fucking monomyth...
