the simple life
Yard Farmer
okay, stupid. Or looking stupid?
We took the kids to the movies, the theatre has three levels.
Between levels there is an escalator and sets of stairs next to them.
Now, when the movie got out the kids ran for the escalators, you know how much "fun" those are.
Well, one of my sons decides to run up the down escalator.
I automatically just ran after him thinking, danger, this is a bad idea.
Well he gets to the top, I get halfway up and I am getting mighty tired.
So now I get 3 quarters of the way up and he jumps off.
My husband who had take the correct escalator with the other kids is standing there with a group of people, no lie, laughing at me.
They had seen me run after him, then get to nearly the top and I could not get all the way up.
It was like running on a treadmill, but do you think I just stopped and rode it down and then got on the right one?
No I decided I would just finish the climb and get off, oh and I was wearing flip flops.
By the time I got to the top people were clapping and cheering for me.
One older gentleman had been leaning against the pillar with his arms folded across his chest patiently watching the "show" with great amusement on his face.
My husband was doubled over, tellling me how funny it was to see me running up the escalator in flip flops.
So now I was so flustered and anxious to get out of there that as I took my daughter's hand to leave I knocked over a big movie cutout.
I bent over to pick it up and knocked someone's popcorn otu of their hands.
My husband was like you will neve be allowed back here ya know and my teenage son said they probably have a video tape of this from the security cameras and they are laughing their butts off at you, or maybe it will end up on the internet.
The whole way home in the car, every time my husband looked at me he burst out laughing, he said he kept getting a visual of me in my flip flops determined to make it to the top.
