ECLIPSE

It all started at 4:00 on a sunny afternoon. The line was decent as all the guests began to arrive. Dinner was scheduled for the wise ones at 6:30 at the fine dining establishment of CPK. That was where we got wind of the impending doom. Wristbands were being handed out to only those few who remained in the long line. Our minions were most willing to stand in for us, but the overseers were not accommodating.

We dashed from our meal to seek out the keeper of the blue bands only to find out that yes indeed, we needed those bands as well as the coveted tickets to enter the theater at 8:30 that evening. That is correct. Enter at 8:30 for a 12:01 am movie.

We exited and headed south towards the prize that was waiting, that of the hot meal. We arrived unscathed to slurp down the succulent feast, throw coins to the server and gallop back to our coveted places in "the line". We succeeded at the challenge and were met with cheers as we entered the domain of "Twilight" the saga.

Sounds unthinkable and yet it occurred just as I have relayed the story and it was so worth it.
