Shortly after moving into my house/dorm, I discovered that the caretaker/housekeeper had never been to a movie theatre. So I promised to take her. Many moons later (a couple days ago), I finally got my chance.
We worked out permission for her to get a few hours off work, hopped on the bus, headed to the mall, and arrived at the ticket counter a few minutes before the show. I ordered our tickets and reached for my wallet only to discover–to my mortification–that I had left it at home! Fortunately she had brought some money with her or we would have had to skip the movie altogether. Either way and all around, very embarrassing. It really ruins the effect of treating someone when you have to pay them back in order to do so!
