LH and HP

Last night, or technically this morning
I waited patiently in line at the Arapahoe Crossings Theatre in Centennial Colorado
for four and a half hours
why you ask?
For Harry Potter of course!
If you are new, you might not know I have a weird obsession with this movie
I absolutely love HP and sometimes wish I was him...
don't worry people, this is halloween....
senior year
Anyways, last night Losson and I sat on sticky floors
and leaned against dirty walls
waiting to watch HP on the big screen for the last (first) time
(I'm probably going to see it again today)
like an experienced midnight premier goer
I brought my computer, phone charger, and snacks to eat,
Of course, scored some awesome seats right smack dab in the middle of the theatre,
and played a game of chess to pass the time
I even drew this beauty to send to my friend Lauren who happened to be waiting at another theatre
oh the things paint can do

Of course she loved it and we texted for atleast 
three of the four and a half hours we had been waiting
she is a funny girl that Lauren
let me share a story about her, with you,
then you will understand...

Once upon a time, about a month ago
Lauren's car was acting a bit funky, 
so
she took it into the shop like any good car owner would do
she left it there over night
and when she came back in the morning
it was all fixed up
she took out the one check her mother had signed, and given her,
and asked the man how much it would be
he responded
"six sixty seven, seventy one"
well...she wrote what she heard, and this is what she got
who knew auto repairs would cost more than the car?

Once she realized her mistake, she had to explain to the guy that
she had messed up the check and could not give it to him
with that being her only check though,
you can imagine how awkward it got when she had to tell him she couldn't pay him yet...
oh the life of Lauren
I told you she is a funny girl!

Happy Friday Everyone :)
