Did my thumbs-up buy me a seat at the midnight monster movie?
Funny'You still owe me for Friday,' Jules said. 'You're seat F6.'
I had put a thumbs-up under the poster she sent for a midnight monster movie. I meant that the lizard wearing a waistcoat looked excellent. She meant, 'Everyone reacting gets a ticket,' but that instruction was in a separate message above the poster. I hadn't read it.
There are seven seats together, and she bought them before the offer ended. I can't go: I'm helping my sister move early the next morning. Jules says she can probably find someone else, but she's annoyed that she has to ask around. Fair enough. I didn't type yes, yet I did add the same reaction as everyone who did want a seat.
Do I offer to cover my ticket while she tries to pass it on, or would that make a poster compliment into an expensive RSVP? I have already removed the thumbs-up. The waistcoated lizard has done nothing to deserve that.
