It was that time of year again! Time to go and check out an indie movie @ the ever-popular film fest. Crak & I went last year to see Jamie Johnson's "The One Percent". It was very good, but what was better is that after the movie I got to shake his hand & drool a little. Still crunching on that guy.
This year almost escaped us, as we have conflicting schedules. But we managed to hop in on Friday to see "In Search Of A Midnight Kiss". Not too bad!
The event began when I was standing at the train station, minding my own business, and some coke head came up to me & mumbled something. I said "What?" with that annoyed look on my face. He says again "Why are you so beautiful?" Not missing a beat, I replied "Good genes I guess". To which he steps back, looks at my JEANS and says "Yeah......." and then moved towards his friends so I could escape.
We met at Penn & headed to the theater. Big comfy seats. Nice view of the screen. An intereting audience to view this film with. Neat! The film was about a guy who just moved to LA & has been in a slump & is 'getting off' on pics of his roommate's girlfriend. The roommate & gf catch him doing this & it turns into a 'you gotta find a date, man' situation so they get him to sign up on Craig's List. He meets a neurotic girl & they spend the day together, with her determining if she will stay with his until midnight so that they have someone to kiss, being that it is New Year's and all. Random. What caught my eye at the beginning of the film was that the director used the stat that "During Dec. 25th and Jan 1st, the number of people signing up for Match increases by 300%". Scary! So many people (inculding me on some levels) do not want to be alone.
Anyways, the movie hit home in some respect for me & I even found myself a bit teary-eyed. We left the theater with the idea of walking next door to get dinner but I wanted to stop at the Info. booth first. I asked the people back there if I had all of the little pamphlets & stuff and they said yes I did. Until one guy says "Hey. I know something you don't have". To which (naive me) replied "What?" He said "Do you have a pen?" I said "A pen? I don't think so" And he said "You don't have my number." Hahaha.............funny!
Moving on, we finally grabbed dinner at Chipotle! YIPPEE! I have been dying to eat there but wanted to wait for Crak since she raved about it. I ordered.....and ate.....three scrumptious tacos. I was so full but could have had anothr because they are that good. I got home that night exhausted, full, and happy to have completed another thing on the 'to do' list for 2007.
Thanks, Crak, for another rememberable time.
(don't know about you, but I am feeling another rockstar night coming on)
