The Day Everything Went Wrong

June 20 was one of those days that everything went wrong.


  • The boys woke up too late to go to the free movie at Brambleton.
  • When Sam finally dd wake up, he was so tired and cranky he had to be dragged to the movie showing later at Tally Ho.
  • It was 98 degrees in the afternoon.  When Pete, Sam, and Mom got to the pool around 2:00, they found out it was closing at 4:00 for a swim meet.
  • Mom skipped her cycling class and waited for a repairman at Nana's condo who never showed up.  When we finally got through to him on the phone, he said to call him the following Tuesday and see if he can work something out.
  • Everyone drove to the Majestic Family Fun Center all the way in Manassas to use their Groupon for dinner and games.  When they got there, they found out that they were under new management and were not allowed to serve any food that night.
  • After leaving and deciding to go to the Burger King in Centreville with the split-level play area, they found a sign at the BK that said "Play area closed, due to heat".
  • The soda machine was broken in the upstairs seating area.  Everyone went down to get their drinks and refills.
  • They went to get ice cream cones after dinner, but BK was out of ice cream.
  • When they got home, the cable to the ipod charger was missing from the back seat of the car.

Despite all of this, everyone had a fun day.  And at least they were together.
