Today I met with my friend Radonna and we went to see Juno.  We got to the movie early and sat and waited... and waited...  and waited.  Finally the management came out and said they couldn't get the projector to work.  We arranged to come back after lunch and watch National Treasure - Book of Secrets.

We went to Casa Ole for Mexican food.  By the way, Calyn's ethnic food thing last week, the other kids loved the meatballs but Calyn didn't like them.  Everyone else brought Mexican food which is what I figured they would do.

After we ate we went by Barnes and Noble (we were at the mall and all of this was in the mall).  She bought 3 books and we looked around. 

We got to our movie, took our places and were raring to go.  They were playing the pre-movie stuff.  Then the screen went blank.  We heard some sound and thought oh how clever of them to lead into the movie this way.  But, wait, still no picture.  Then the sound stopped and the lights came up.  A manager came in and said they were trying to get the movie started and to bear with them.  At this point I'm beginning to think I should go back home and go back to bed!

Finally, the picture and sound come on and we see the whole movie.  It was good!  It kept me involved the entire time.

After I got home I was flipping channels and found that the first movie of National Treasure was on, so, since I had never seen it I watched it too.  I liked them both.

But it sure was weird that the same thing happened in two different movies to us!  At least it's a funny story to tell people.
