A couple of weeks ago we made the wonderful decision to plan ahead . . . just a LITTLE. Charlie kept trying to talk me into going to see Avatar in 3D at the I-max but I kept saying, “NO.” Finally I gave in and we were all set to go tonight. We were really looking forward to a nice evening; just the two of us. It’s not like we don’t go on dates somewhat regularly, but it’s always welcomed. Then it hit us. At the same time. February 5th was no ordinary Friday night. It is Tiger Cub belt testing. And not just ANY test. Will is testing for his BLACK belt. Yes, I will soon have a tiger cub black belt to protect me from all the evil that lurks in my small suburban neighborhood. This also meant that we were going to need to carefully coordinate for our date. Yuck. We soon found out we would have to reschedule entirely. The movie shows at 7 and 10 something. Testing is at 6:15. No way we can make 7. We are in no way going to keep a babysitter up past midnight so the 10ish one was out too. THen I had to make the dreaded “we are so sorry but we are idiots and double scheduled stuff” phone call. The sitter understood but I felt just awful! I have NO idea when we are going to get to see the movie. Soon I hope. But did you hear that I a going to have a TIGER CUB black belt to protect me?
