No day like well, next month apparently

The Lord giveth, and the Lord taketh away.
In this instance, the Lord gaveth me tickets to RENT (well, technically I bought them, but hey, I got them before they sold out). We had orignally purchased them for Friday night, January 27th. Ah, the anticipation. Listening to the soundtrack at every opportunity. Choice phrases and lines frolicking through my head. The daily countdown of popping in to my friend's classroom, until Friday's, "Zero days left! No day but today!"
And so to the taketh away part.
I'm getting ready, wondering, what one should wear to a Broadway show, when the phone rings.
"Hello?"
"Argh!"
"Ummm..."
"The show..."
"Yeah! I'm so excited! What are you wearing?"
"the date's been changed."
"I'm wearing...what? Changed? Noooo..."
Turns out, it had been changed awhile back. We had purchased tickets to the Jan. 27th show, and been given tickets to the March 31st show. Should we have checked? Yes, but who among us would normally think to do so? I didn't think so.
Oh, the inhumanity.
Better check your tickets.
