I saw Brick at The Charles tonight. What a cool, funny, trippy, and suspenseful little movie. I thought to myself, "Wow, that's the best movie I've seen in a theater in ages!" and then I realized, well, it has been ages since I've been to the movies. What was the last one? Syriana? Match Point? Brokeback Mountain? I don't know. It's definitely been a couple of months. I seem to have missed both Inside Man and Thank You For Smoking, two recent movies I was pretty excited about. I want to see United 93 (but definitely have to be in the mood), and probably would see the new Mission Impossible as well.
Baseball season is winding down, though, so I feel like I can finally have a bit of a life. It started this weekend, as my only restaurant shift is Sunday (9-5) and I actually went out and about both nights. Plus I got quite a bit of grading, reading, and planning done in the downtime.

I saw Inside Man and, though it was good, it left a lot unanswered - not that I expect everything to be tied up in a neat package. It was one of those where you are walking out of the theater and think "Wait a minute...". I also felt like Jodie Foster's talent was completely wasted. Overall, it was worth seeing, though.
thank you for smoking has already been and gone?!
wow. i miss everything...
You can probably still find it some places, but it's gone for our main independent theater...
