idiot!!!

so i had to miss watching batman begins last night. i can live with that. so i might not be able to get my money back. i can live with that, too. but what i cannot live with, is that some IDIOT officemate didn't have enough foresight to sell the two extra tickets they had as ADJACENT SEATS. he sold them SEPARATELY.

it wasn't my fault i came down with the stomach flu yesterday. it wasn't my fault i still wasn't feeling well enough to drive fifteen kilometers for an hour to get to the theater. SO WHY THE HECK DO I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT?!?!?! i thought it would be hard for them to sell just one ticket, so i was willing to let it go, actually. but when i found out someone else begged off, i thought, well, at least it will be easier to sell the tickets. i mean, what kind of loser watches movies alone???

ha. apparently, my officemate does. because he thought it would be better to sell two NON-ADJACENT seats than two adjacent ones. and did i mention that we got two whole rows of seats, anyway??? so nobody would end up being alone on a row, because even if you sold two seats, you'd still have three seats in that row. so what's with the "it's better to have everyone together" bit??? i mean, you are inside a DARK theater, watching one of the most suspense-laden, action-packed films of the month. your eyes will be practically glued to the screen, YOU WOULDN'T EVEN NOTICE WHO'S SITTING BESIDE YOU!!! there's duh, there's Duh, and then there's DUH. my colleague most definitely fits in the last category.

i'm getting so upset my stomach is acting up again. sigh. I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!
