C and I decided to see Shark vs Eagle at the Neptune last week for SIFF. Of course being in the U district there are no all day parking garages so every 2 hours I had to run out and pay for parking. So 5 minutes before start of the flick I scooted out of the theater, down the hill, paid the meter as much coinage as possible and huffed back up the hill.
Needless to say I was red-faced and sweating when I got back to the lobby and immediately went in search of water. Seeing a pitcher of water down the hallway I started walking towards it. The only thing in my way was tall, lengthy, sexy-looking man lounging on bench, his legs stretched out as far as they could go. Being captivated by the good looks I missed the the fact I would have to step "over" his legs and promptly tripped instead.
Somehow I avoided a flat out fall but did not miss the opportunity to be completely humiliated by the classic "avoiding-falling-stumble."
I gathered myself as best I could, drank a Dixie-cup full of water, and went back into the theater. Just in time to see Mr. Handsome walking up to the stage...
Yup, Danielle the Uncouth, almost fell flat on her face in front of Taika Waititi ... the director.
BTW - Movie was fantastic.
