Ever had one of THOSE days?

My partner insisted that we go to the movies - at 9 am on a Sunday. As you can imagine I was really thrilled about this idea.

So off we went, arriving exactly on time and ready to buy our tickets.

Alas the doors were locked.

There was a lovely sign in the doorway that indicated that the film was to be shown from 9 - 11 and also that the theatre would be open at 10:15.

A careful examination of the signs revealed of course that we were a mere 12 hour early for the session.

What a pity that people do not use the 24 hour clock or at least put some indicator next to the numbers that could give their patrons a hint that the hours are either in the morning or the evening.

That's the way the day started. Then it went downhill from there. Sometimes I think it is better not to get out of bed - probably safer too.
