We just haddddddddd to see the Rocky Horror Picture Show like all the other kids.

It started at midnight. Which was great, had a blast. Problem was after the show was over then what. It was winter, we didn't exactly plan past the "event".

We ended up spending the night in the parking lot and waking up turning the car on every once in awhile to heat it. Finally about 4 am we went to Krystal and heated up in the bathroom where they had those heat hand dryers. We were misreable and cold and no blankets, no pillows and no nothing.

Lack of planning. Not a good thing.

Oh and as far as what i told my kids? Gosh. I remember one thing for sure. If they cried it would thunder. To this day they both hate storms. Ooops.

I laughed all the way through that. Kids never do plan even a second beyond their fondest desire.

I think "If you cry, it will thunder" rivals my "Uh-oh, no ice cream!" in terms of wicked mama stuff.
