Batman




Here are some pics from the new Batman being filmed in Old Town. Me Kir and LB swung by there after walking around the Armitage and Halstead area. No Christian Bale. The plan was to blow up a Benz. We couldn't stand there and wait. Too much effort.

Cards

I played the nurse card again.  Just prior to this, I was telling the story about the first time I used it...to bypass the line at the California Clipper b/c i had to pee very very badly...anyway.  I used it at Zanies last night.  I forgot my work ID or something that had my current address.  It worked.  This is too much power for one person.

rain

Yesterday, my pal LB and I decided to go layout at the beach.  As soon as we plopped our chairs down, Sacajawea coin-sized rain drops started to fall.  We sat and waited a minute just in case it stopped.  No.  It kept coming. 
 
We were optimistic so we stopped at the food stand just off Fullerton and LSD.  For a few minutes, we were safe from the rain.  Even ate a Polish.  Then the food stand guy asked us to move aside.
 
Anyway, we were caught in the rain.  My weird ass tan line will have to stay this way for a little while longer.

Bad Girl

I'm being bad. Instead of giving my full attention to my a prep CD for a CPR Instructor class I have going on this Thursday...I'm writing in my blog, talking to my bud LB, and looking up granola recipes.

Now we're going to the beach.

Pride Addendum

What was up the the Hospice float? And how morbid was the coffin company's float...there was a man sitting in a coffin, throwing out beads.

Pride Weekend

Another Gay Pride Weekend has ended. The First Noel and I ran the Proud to Run 10K on Saturday...our 3rd year in a row. It was surprisingly cold and overcast which could only help our running. I however was bad on Friday and didn't keep up with staying hydrated. And shit did I feel it. And there was the parade today. I am sorry for yelling "i love meat" to the vegans...that's not very nice or tolerant of me. Also, fuck you to the wanker who attacked my friend today. And Kimchi, I'm sorry for knocking the sunglasses off your head with the beach ball...see, i'm no good with balls.

I heard Madonna's Hung Up like 3 times, and JT's Sexy Back twice. Where the hell was the Gasian float this year? I miss you guys...esp the flip in the Barong Tagalog.

Painful Shoes

Why women subject themselves to 3-4 inch heals...I don't know. 2 inches...that's still ok...maybe some broken skin. But 3 inches...that will cause some freakin nerve damage. Unless you know that you'll be cabbing it completely, living in a city with valet, or have someone to give you a piggy back ride, don't bother.

Franks

I was all over the place today. Tennis at Oz Park. Wicker Park. Bob
San. Vintage. Franks. Angela's Burrito Style.

I should never eat after drinking. Keeps me awake instead of acting
as a sleep aid.

Did you know that "metamorphosize" is NOT a word recognized by a
legitimate online dictionary? WTF? Well thank you public school for
still giving me an A on the papers I did use that non-existent word.

Knocked Up

The best line in the movie went something like this...Am I an inventor?  Did I make a dick-skin condom? 
 
I'm still laughing.  I will watch this again.

machete

 
This is all I can handle this morning.  A man wielding a machete in Chicago. Last night:  Danny's in Wicker Park, drinks, flashes.  We are definitely picture happy asians.  Woke up late.  Not nice for the night shift.  Sorry.

Libby

 
Come on!  30 months is NOTHING.  At least my boyfriend Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald got a conviction.  What if Valarie Plame died.  Would he get more time in the slammer?

Unity Temple in Oak Park, IL





Waitress

The First Noel and I barely missed the downpour that took place Friday night. The original plan to sit out in the pation at Orso's changed when we couldn't get a table. Reluctantly, took our business to Kamahachi across the street. We both haven't had the best food at this place. Second chance = good. We ate at the sushi bar upstairs. Avoided a neighborhood dirty old man.

Waitress...a movie that didn't deserve more than a 20% tip. It was decent. It teetered along artsy and cheesy. If this was Adrienne Shelly's first, second, or third movie, it's a really good film. And I would see her other movies. Felicity done good as an actress, but it just wasn't my cup of tea. I was so annoyed by the uber submissive wife character. Oh jeez, Jeremy Sisto character Earl?! Very convincing as a needy, controlling, pussy of a human piece of garbage. It's funny to think that he's played Jesus in a TV movie.

The First Noel was annoyed by the pies. It was a total chick flick. At the end of the previews we were 1 of 10 hetero-girl couples at the theatre. Seriously, there was no point in changing clothes. We should have just kept pajamas on. And we noticed the one guy in the theatre. Probably on a date. Or a new boyfriend. You can still sucker those newbies to movies like this.
