The Incredible Hoodie Incident
Kids are doing great academically and as parents we have to pony up the rewards when they do a good job. We went to Ruby's and then the Incredibles. "Thank you fandago", that's all I have to say on that one. Our friend Jen went with us. Again we love fandango because it let me just add a ticket spur of the moment.
We showed up about 45 mins before the show started and got the tix and waiting in the holding pen. like 3 people in front of us. Closer to the time 3 people turned into 20. Thats 17 line cutters. Some people who didn't even know the first people had the nerve to make their own line by the consession area and just "merge" with us going into the theater.
See thats why someone came up with the concept of hell. For those people. Line cutters and mergers should be first in line for the firey pit, no? Ya well if you beleive there is no god then there is no devil either. You can't have it both ways. Not even me.
So we got great seats despite the line-A-holes. I went back out and got Sam a booster seat and we watches the same god damn slides we saw when we watched garden state.
The movie rocked. So many people have said such good stuff about this movie I can't really add to it. Unless you're stupid, you will go see it. Even if you are stupid you should go see it. (Like how I covered the whole state space there?)
At some point during the movie I hit my hoodie threshold. That is to say something in my body said to my concious self, "hey the hoodie is too hot and we're going to start sweating now unless you move it off of your body, so get to it." In other words I had a real urge to ditch the hoodie. I swear that was the ONLY urge. Promise. I mean really. So I took off my glasses and gave them to Tammy. Trying to negotiate the hoodie without losing the glasses can be tough, so better safe than sorry, right?
I got to the part of ditching the hoodie where my head pops out the back. When that happened the cooling or draft factor was up way too high for it to be right. At this point Jen was averting her eyes. (Since I'm a guy I guess than means I have a gross back, but I dunno). I had lost my fucking tshirt into the hoodie abyss. I had it in the front and i still had sleeves but my head was free and clear as was my torso.
doh.
What to do?
I ducked back in the hoodie. Right? I mean you took it off... put it back on. Makes sense? yes. Did I miss the t-shirt when I was inbound? Yes. So now I'm in the hoodie missing quite possibly the best animated movie ever. Lots of laughter from Tammy and Jen (not at the movie). Luckily we had laughter cover from Mr. Freeze doing something funny.
There was me struggling with 100% cotton Geocaching.com T-shirt and my favorite hoodie in the whole world for what seemed like hours. It seemed like the hours in which it took pixar to render the very frames that were wizzing by me on the screen that I was missing so I didn't violate the famous policy:
No shirt; No shoes; No incredibles.
I managed to get into the shirt and out of the hoodie and tammy was in stitches and Jen was looking a bit scandalized as she was also laughing. She did avert her eyes. She asked me to put that in.
Jen averted her eyes. I can't imagine doing anything but because that movie is incredible and i'm ... well... not.
