W R O N G !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For those who don't know, I have a gazillion allergies. One of which is latex. I am deathly allergic to latex! It is not just "a don't touch it and you you won't get a rash" sort of allergy. It is more of the "little tiny particles in the air make my eyes swell, my nose get super stuffy and my lips go numb as a precurser to my throat swelling shut and my stopping breathing" sort of allergy. I hate it. I took two allergy pills (cause I always have them in my purse). I was foolishly hoping that if I stayed out of the common areas and stuck to the inside of the theatres I would be okay. I was soooooo wrong. Within the hour I could barely see, couldn't breathe out my nose, and my lips were starting to tingle. So I told the supervisor that I had to leave. I clocked out and went home, ran straight for the Benadryl, and jumped into the shower. That was a very long drive home. I was so itchy! So this morning I called the director of human resources and explained to her what happened. I have never walked off a shift before. People who do that usually get fired. I need my job still. So after talking to her for a while she siad to not worry about it and to not come back to work until they call me and tell me the balloons are gone. I was very grateful that she wanted to make sure I was okay. So I get a few nights off. YAY!
So what were all those balloons for? This week in the ten year anniversary of when the Megaplex first opened. So, a good reason for them to celebrate. But their party is my worst nighmare. It did get me thinking though, when I die (probably from sort of allergic reaction to something) I do not want any one of you to send flowers! I want balloons instead. I want the whole dang place to be completely decorated with balloons! Hopefully my spirit can come down and enjoy them because this body does not!

And before I forget.....
