date night

*warning.. long post... but totally worth it.

um... k.

last night started wonderful, and ended not as wonderful.

i really can not remember the last time husband and i went on a date.

a real date.

we used to make a habit out of it.. at least once a week.. 

usually more like 3 or 4.

but like i said, lately... TOO much stuff going on.

plus we have been broke. which is "normal" for newlyweds.. right?

so, thank goodness for halloween.

i proudly won the eating-a-donut-hanging-front-a-string contest

and won free movie tickets.

and was given a $25 gift card to Brick Oven.

so we owe a thank you to my lovely mother-in-law.

who i beat in the contest :)

ANYWAYS, back to last night..

we went to dinner at Brick Oven, which, to be honest, wasn't amazing.

but we got some pictures so it was worth it.

then we headed towards our predetermined theater..

passing the St George Opera House, there was a sign.

not like one of those "oh its a sign! the heavens are telling me something"

or, maybe it was actually now that i think about it.

but this was literally a SIGN.

two names. last names to be exact.

so as i'm going around the round about i say, "dont we know someone that has that name?"

UM, yes, that was the wedding we were supposed to be going to tonight and forgot all about.

so what do we do?

well we pull right in, get in line, give our love to the bride and groom,

take a couple suckers and bottles of water with their faces on it, (which i also got pictures of)

and head off to our movie.

oh it was marvelous, we thought we were so smooth. - saved us a trip to the $1 store.

"oh haaaiii! no we didnt just forget about your wedding, we planned on coming all along."

---

the movie was hilarious. best one we've seen in awhile.

and Robert Downey Jr? every time he said he had to get home to his pregnant wife,

i would lean over to Jordan and say, "oh, thats me!"

clever.

now i'm going to play this out for you because trust me, you want to hear it..

remember all those pictures i said i took? wondering where they are?

well we're walking down the theater stairs, when i realize my camera isn't in my sweater pocket.

did i drop it? is it in my purse?

i search frantically for it.. keep in mind this is jordans camera that he's had forever.

then i remember, i went to the bathroom and put it on top of the toilet paper dispenser.

so it didnt fall in of course. heaven forbid we lose our pictures.

check the bathroom, FULL of women.. not there.

so i proceed to go to EVERY manager/worker and ask "did you find a camera in the bathroom?"

um hi how weird does that sound.

what was this weird lady doing with a camera in the bathroom...?

basically, it was nowhere to be found. no where.

someone STOLE the camera.

who would steal a camera they found in a bathroom stall?

i for one wouldnt even want to touch it.

but ya know.. some pleople dont think about that kind of stuff.

so now, our pictures are gone.

the camera is gone.

and jordan was mad at me for a solid 30 minutes.

seriously you guys, i dont know HOW i pull of these kind of stunts.

oh well.

whoever has that piece of us better enjoy our brick oven and stolen candy memories.
