On a Mission

So today was the day I decided to trek out and find a Ticketmaster to buy Cody's Monster Jam tickets at. I opted to go out and get them rather than purchase them over the internet in hopes that I would be able to compare seats and if possible find better ones.

I looked up the closest Ticketmasters since I knew that the one in Square One had closed down and made my way out with a very excited little boy and cranky baby. I made my way to the Ticketmaster in Sherway Gardens in Etobicoke. After wandering the mall looking for Jean Machine, with an anxious little boy in tow, they tell me that their Ticketmaster computer is down. I mutter rude things under my breath, grab Cody and push Mac out in the stroller feeling disappointed. After explaining to Cody that the "ticket machine" is broken and realizing I really did park all the way on the OTHER SIDE of the mall, I seriously considered just saying "Screw it!". Especially after hearing Cody whine the whole way back to the van about how he wants his tickets.

So I shoved everyone back in the van and headed over to Cloverdale Mall for the next Ticketmaster location. After finally finding the store in the mall and waiting for this OLD man buying rock concert tickets I was able to request mine. Just my luck....the damn computer freezes and we had to wait for it to be restarted. By now Cody is getting on my damn nerves about these tickets and on top of it, Mac wants out of the stroller. I was seriously wishing that I had just bought them on the internet.

All in all, I finally got the tickets and didn't really get any better seats than I would have gotten on the net. Oh well. At least they're bought and we got out of the confinement of my mother's place.

Bah-humbug

I'm beginning to think Christmas just isn't at all for the adults anymore. The past few years have resulted in arguments, hurt feelings and stupidity.

At least the kids had a good night.
