Les Mis

Thursday and Friday I went down to St. George with the Ewell's. We went to see Les Mis at the Tuacahn outdoor theater. (Yes, outdoor theater in the desert - fairly warm.) Of course, they double sold my seat. I got to spend the play sitting by myself in the house seats. Fortunately, it was only 1 row behind my original seat. On one side of me was a girl with one of those spray bottle fans - the water sprayed me on only one side during the first half of the show. On the other side, about ten empty seats. After intermission I decided to move over so I could have empty seats on either side of me. However, as I was looking over the program, another person sat down next to me. I looked up in surprise to see a guy around my age sitting in the seat directly next to me. Now, had he just sat farther down the row, I wouldn't have thought anything of it. But no, he sat down right next to me and then proceeded to introduce himself! Yes, his name was Nick. A little connection right from the start. The family behind me piped up, "We thought you looked so lonely by yourself we thought we would get you a date." I was so surprised I was speechless. (A rarity for me!) They thought I was embarrassed - I just thought it was weird. I am married after all. The rest of the play was enjoyable, but spent trying not to get into his personal space and keep my bubble intact.
