Hannah Montana

I must be out of my mind. All week, Anna reminded me everyday that "Hannah Montana The Movie" is in theaters April 10th. "PLEASE can we go?" All week, my answer was the same. "We'll see". They did not let me forget. I should have burned all of the calendars so they did not know the date. Today dawned very rainy and dreary. Anna said, "A perfect day to go to the movies". Anyone who knows my penny-pinching ways knows that I will not pay full price for a movie. I usually only go to the dollar theatre, and tried to make the girls see the sense in this, but to no avail. The first showing of the day is the cheapest, and it was the first showing of the movie in our town (except for the midnight showing the night before). So, off we went to get our tickets an hour early. The theatre was not even open yet. There were only 3 cars in the lot. So we sat and waited. Soon, people started showing up and getting in line out in the rain (it was only a sprinkle at this time). We joined all of the other crazy parents and their excited offspring. In about 15 minutes or so, the doors were opened, and I tell you it was like Walmart the day after Thanksgiving! The line disappeared. People were going into ALL of the doors at once. We got our tickets, and our seats and waited for another 45 minutes until the movie started. The movie itself was the same as the show, only 4 times as long! As I said, I must be CRAZY! My mother would have NEVER have done such a thing! I probably won't do it again , either. The dollar movies are just fine with me!

  1. Don't worry I believe you may have lost your mind a while ago but it's ok because it keeps life interesting. And you mom would have NEVER took us to see a movie!
