Trying to Be a Teenager Again

Last night a bunch of girlfriends and I went to the midnight showing of Twilight. We had NO IDEA the magnitude of this event. We decided to meet at a restaurant next to the theater at 8:00 p.m., have a late dinner and then scope out the line situation after we were done eating. As we pulled into the mall complex where the theater is, I gasped... there was a line of people snaked down the sidewalk to the very end of the movie theater building (at 8:00 p.m.!!!)

So, we decided to regroup and get in line immediately. A couple gals in our party had already had dinner, so they headed for the end of the line and the rest of us quickly grabbed some food in the mall's food court and carried it back to our spot in the line. I had a delicious stuffed baked potato and a huge diet coke while sitting on the sidewalk with some of my best friends! Here's a photo of the line in front of us....and this is the line behind us.......turns out our theater sold enough tickets to fill 8 auditoriums!!!! Crazy, huh??? Lucky for us, we were able to get into an auditorium and wait in comfy seats for the last 2 hours before the movie, which was nice to have unlimited access to the restrooms while I waited for above mentioned diet coke to filter through the bladder!

I've promised not to say a word about the movie itself for a few more days... I'll try to be good and keep that promise! But, if you want to see it, do it soon so we can all talk about it together!
