Gang Aft Agley

Friday, Sarieah had to run an errand, to get materials for Solstice and birthday gifts. Thinking the store was next to the mall, she brought us all along to go to the dollar theater. We decided to take the kids to the new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

We arrived late, as we hadn’t counted on the traffic, but as we ended up tangled in the traffic, we realized how silly it was to run to the mall on the day after thanksgiving. Sarieah and Zakiaya went in to get seats while the boys and I bought popcorn. When the three of us got into the theater Sarieah was sitting down, though she wasn’t able to find seats for all of us together. I ended up in the second row with the boys. I think its the same seats I ended up in for A Series of Unfortunate Events.

As with the last movie Keigan and I saw, he continued to point out where the story deviated from the book. What was up with the flashbacks?

Zakiaya took issue with the squirrels carting away Veruka Salt. For some reason, having wild squirrels running around the house a few months ago, connected with the squirrels carrying Veruka to the garbage, was a little much for her.
