Movie Night
Well, I'm feeling like my old self again. It's just in time for my "Movie Night" at my house with my singles Sunday school class. This week everything I touched seemed to break: my computer at work and my 300 disc DVD changer. So I was in a pickle, wanting to give the viewers all of the options that a DVD Changer has to offer. Last night at guys night there was a mission, to retrieve the illustrious 400 disc changer from best buy and to get my house clean for the guests. We got to dinner first at 8 at Chili's and hope to have time to get to best buy before it closes at 9. We managed to but there was a snag, the store didn't have it in stock. So at 8:50 I had the clerk lookup locations where it was available. He found one in Denton, a 25 minute drive away. I figured it was worth a shot so I called the store and asked them for a favor - to keep the store open for a half hour so I could buy the $400 player. Naturally when the money came up they were like, "Sure, just tell em Wyatt sent ya." So I drove all the way up to Denton and retrieved the golden trophy. After getting an extension on this book deal and then convincing the guy to keep the store open I am thinking I might actually have a power of persuasion. Eh, it's probably just the power of money. That night I got my friends to help clean my house and put the DVDs in the new player - those are the kind of friends to have. And now I will probably go home early, clean the upstairs and let the single girls take a tour of the house. It should be fun.
