b and I had the pleasure of attending a Jerry Seinfeld show last night (thanks mom and dad). Everyone knows this, but he really is a genius Observer of Life. He made a fortune in making his life observations comical, making us laugh at ourselves. He spent time last night imagining all of the people in the theater's preparations to get there - to get to the event. Touche. Almost not funny as we had nearly missed the show ourselves.
Day of normalcy around our house. Cleaning, exercise, errands...
Where should we eat...
internet searches....
options declared...
off we go.
The chosen dining spot had service that, well frankly, sucked (that topic is yet another one of Seinfeld's observations - may get to that one later). We thought we had left plenty of time to grab an appetizer and a drink or two to arrive at the 9:30 show. Time was getting tight, we had to go.
Get to the theater. On time.
Hand tickets to the attendant. "These tickets are for the 7:00 show and we are sold out."
WHAT?
Off to the ticket office. Yes, they had tickets. Singles.
Back to the attendant - off to the show. Same row, eight seats apart.
Thankfully, we found service that, well, did not suck. The very nice lady working the seating got other show goers to "scoot" and b and I got to sit together. and laugh. at ourselves.
