A friend I work with was able to get me and the boys tickets to the 7:00 pre-pre-screening of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. It was really good. The best one so far, we think. Before the movie started they were having a little ticket raffle, 2 blankets and 15 water bottles full of candy. Before they started calling numbers they asked for anyone who didn't have a ticket to come and get one. Griff didn't have one, so I said he could just use mine, but he insisted that he have his own, so he went and got one. Alas, we didn't win. He left to go refill his drink and popcorn, and while he was gone they decided to raffle off a huge Harry Potter cardboard cut-out. "451" she says, and Blake is all "Holy crap! That's Griff's number!" Well, he was gone and we didn't have his ticket, so they called another number. I felt so bad, but what are ya gonna do, right? Wrong. Griff got back and Blake let him in on the news. So Griff is bound and determined to get that cutout. He couldn't find his ticket, so he is looking all over the floor with the light by his cell phone until he finds it, and then he just takes off. I was like, what the heck is he doing now? After a little while some people in Alpine shirts start whispering and flittering around, and I just thought, Oh, my.....that has to be about him. He comes back, and says, "It's all under control. I get it." I couldn't believe it. I was really proud of him that he would take the initiative to do something like that. If it would have been me I wouldn't have done anything. We got out of the movie around 10 and people were already in line for the midnight showing. It was pretty cool to be able to see it early like that. We had a fun time, and recommend it!
