Not the Right Time Crime Fighter

You can't say we didn't try! Today Mad Dog, Little Man and I went to our first movie together, and today Mad Dog saw Spiderman 3 while Little Man and I went home after 45 minutes. I think it was a combination of things that make this fieldtrip a disaster.

  • Time of day - we went at 4:15pm, which is usually Little Man's bad hour.

  • PoopMan came to Fight Crime - Little Man had a super poop just around that time and there are no changing tables at the movie theater since they think that Parents should wait until their children are old enough to see a movie to go back to film viewing.

  • My Nerves - I was afraid of becoming one of the people I hate. You know the one with the child that is crying and you're thinking, "Who the hell would bring a baby to a movie like this?" Yup, I was afraid of becoming one of the people I had at the movies. Maybe Little Man picked up on this fear and was trying to teach Mom a lesson. (He's smart that way!)
We're sure to try again with so many movies coming out this summer that we both want to see. Maybe Little Man will enjoy Oceans 13 better or maybe Harry Potter (he was quite during the preview!).
