the curse of nemo
omigod. can i even tell you the frustration. the movie gods refuse to let ryan and i see finding nemo. they have sent all their evil gremlins out from their minions to make sure that ryan and i do not see this movie together. two months! two months we have been trying to see this movie.

we finally decide to watch the movie last night. i was suppose to meet ryan last night at burbank at 7:30. being that i am at work, let me give you the abridged version of what happened to me last night that only a virgo woman can do:

-left at 6:45 from los angeles. burbank is only 15 miles away.
-hit 110 traffic. slowed to a creaping 20 mph
-continued to get stuck in this hell hole till 7:21pm till i hit the 5N
-thinking to myself "all good. i will just be 10 minutes late. no biggie. movie starts at 7:50"
-didnt find the exit. ended up in sun valley?--anyways, called for directions
-thinking to myself "all good.. don't worry. it's 7:40. i got a good 10 - 15 minutes of commercials before the movie actually starts
-get to amc, got out of car, realized it was the WRONG movie theater
-hopped in car, drove down the street to the amc 16 ( i was at the amc 6 or something)
- woman in a silver suv cuts me off
-teenage kid crosses street from the middle of nowhere. i slow down to a screeching halt... signaled me to go saying "i see you, go!" . as i drive off he says "sucka!".. i flip him off... he stands in the middle of the street with two birds in his hands as a car approaching him from behind honks at him. stupid shithead.
-got in the hellhole of a parking structure. saw a couple going to their car. i became the parking vulture. man gets in, woman gets in but sees a dent on the car. woman beckons man to come and see dent. they talke about it for about 5-10 minutes.
-meanwhile, line of 6 cars form behind me. they start honking
-couple slooooooooooooooowly backs out
-7:50pm.. i run to a sign that says "AMC upperlevel"
- i run 5 FLIGHTS OF STAIRS IN THE BACK WAY OF THIS DAMN PARKING STRUCTURE. stairs lead me to stairs... GOING DOWN THE OTHER SIDE!!!
-i exit to the alley.i can breathe
-8:10pm.. no ryan... went upstairs to lobby.. no ryan.. went to the line.. no ryan..debating to see finding nemo by myself... they stopped selling tickets
-twiddled my thumbs
-left at 8.25pm

bought a coke and a serving of fries to drown my sorrows (some people drink. some smoke. i eat junk food)

i resorted to smoking out, soaking in hot bath with sea salt, reanacting my own movie where i play nemo... as i try to find myself...

damn you movie gods... damn you
