Liv is Livin' it up in 2010

My mom and I had the craziest experience at the movie theater the other night. She had a really bad day and her car got towed and it messed up her massage appoinment trying to get it back and it was just a really ugly day for her so we decided to get in our pajamas and take a blanket and cuddle up at a movie together. We had wanted to go to Nine and went to Jordan Commons and brought our favorite Valentine treats that are out now. Chocolate covered cinnamon bears and cinnamon hearts and we were ready to just relax for the night and see this new movie and hear. That's what you would hope for at a movie these days right......?? There were about ten people in the thearter and we were right in the middle and there were about six sitting below us and then two women sitting up at the top. About a third way through the movie we kept hearing the women up above us talking out loud, ReALLY LOUD. We kept looking back like, are they serious...do they think they are the only ones in the theater? It sounded like they were on the phone just talking away and then just talking to each other and we tried to ignore it for awhile. We were going to try to move away so that we couldn't hear them but they just kept going and going so about half way through the movie my Mom went out and just asked a manager to ask them to please be quiet because it was really distracting. He came in and just asked them quietly to please be quiet and keep it down. He left and we though.....ahhhh it will finally get better. Oh no, it actually got worse! They started yelling and saying, real cool people real cool, how old are we. They yelled out "Hey Douche bag, really, really people." I really felt like I was in a dream because no one else in the theater were turning around or saying anything and I thought, are they not bugged by this, and is this really happening? They started cackling like witches and laughing while the movie is still going and you ask, Why didn't I just walk out. I'm not sure why? We really just wanted to see the movie and didn't know when we would be able to again so we sat through it. Dumb on our part I know but at this point it was almost over so it finished and by this point my heart was racing that I either wanted to turn around and yell at these ladies, but also scared for my life a little bit that we were going to get attacked or something. We got up and the lights were still off and my mom and I started walking out and the ladies yelled. Hey F'ing Fags get over here. We walked out to customer service and the manager asked if it got any better and we said no it got much worse and he offered to give us our money back. Right then, behind us we heard, that's them and they came up to us. The one was really over weight with a muffin top (she was trying to fit in pants that were way too small her for, hence the muffin top) and she was probably six feet and had glasses on a one black eye (so right then we knew she was a fighter) She got in my Mom's face and said "You are rediculous" at this point I am standing there and my mom said my face went as white as a ghost. I froze and thought, is this lady going to punch my Mom and is there going to be a fight right here. What is this world coming to. We can't even go to a movie and be safe and enjoy a quiet evening anymore? She smelled so bad of alcohol you felt like some of it even was left on me...it was soooo bad. We asked security to escort us out to our car and as we were walking out we saw them walking to their car and security got on the phone with the cops and one guy went to find out if they were really going to drive off in the state that they were in....which scared me more than anything. We safely made it to our car, thank goodness! I told my mom, what is wrong with this day, she had a horrible day and this did not make it any better, it just topped it off to be the worst day of the year so far for her! CRAZY. My sweet friend Emily just wrote on her blog recently about a completely opposite experience where she talks about Pay it Forward ( one of my favorite movies). That she forgot her wallet and the guy behind her bought her drink for her at the movies. I'm so glad to hear that things like that this really do happen and that our society is not becoming as negative as this experience that we had. I'm just so glad we are safe and it's sad that some people are so unhappy that they have black eyes from previous fighting, and come drunk to the movies because they are so unhappy and have to lash out on others to make us a feel a little glimpse of their misery. It was still a great time with my Momma and we giggle now that she said I would have been no help as I was as white as a ghost and that she would be left on her own to fight her. I would have whipped out my karate kick Momma so don't worry! Haha
