x_los | Vietnamese Food is Awesome Beyond All Reason

...is my discovery for the day. Omg, that friend-calamari thing, spicy and plum-ful and daaaaaaamn.

So my aunt is apparently right on top of Little Chinatown, or so she says. Winnona and Winthrope, off Broadway, so I guess? I have no idea where I am. But we rocked out the oriental grocery after dinner and bought flower-flavor candy. My maple and butter off-brand pocky tastes incredibly like a pancake, and I feel a mite disturbed that a preservative-stick can do that. Thanks, Japan.

We also rented Million Dollar Baby and The Sea Inside. We watched the former, and it was a good movie I guess, I don't think I was in the right mood. My aunt upon finishing: "I'm going to go read Harry Potter now to stave off the depression." (she hasn't finished the sixth book) Me: "Why? Harry's only going to break his spine and Dumbledore will have to help him die in this drawn out, painful hospital sequence." The portrayal of Missouri in this movie is way classy. Tomorrow I'm going to play around in Little Chinatown some more, possibly. And re-finish HP and the GF.

I hear Pride and Prejudice, despire my casting angst, does not suck. Andrea laid down the law on this point. Now I have no excuse not go go see it with other vaginas. So many good movies out right now, I'd like to catch Jarhead and Walk the Line as well. Though I don't see the latter as big vaginabration films. It'd be funny if you tried, though, assembled a big woman-possee and chocolated yourselves and brought tissues and got way too into Jarhead.

I bought Pirates of Silicon Valley for Jer, because how can you not?

I need to begin the shopping that is for christmas.

Heidi Fleiss is opening a "stud farm" in Nevada... go her, I think?
