House Party & Movie Nightcap

Tonight we met up with Harry and Sarah to catch Dan and his band play at a small house party. It was great show and a great crowd…I even saw my old friend, B, who I hadn’t seen in forever.

After the show we we’re planning on making italian soda’s and watching Moonstuck (per recommendation of Sarah’s dad), but Smith’s was out of the right kind of flavored syrup, so we just did the latter. Cher and Nicolas Cage in an Italian comedy? I didn’t know how it could work, but it was surprisingly funny.

Dinner, Dessert & Dark Knight

[That, boys and girls, is called alliteration...which may, or may not be the only thing I learned while obtaining an English degree.]

Tonight Kristie and I didn’t feel like cooking, so we went out to dinner at Los Hermanos for a little mexi-excellence (or at least mexi-mediocrity, depending on your mexican food standards). I personally happen to be fine with the Del-Taco-Bell’s of the world, having never lived south of the border, or anywhere near it.

After dinner we met up with Kristie’s girlfriend Amanda and her fiancee Houston for dessert at Maestro’s (tasty gelato…check it out). It was great to catch up with them and get to know Houston. He plays QB at Snow College (a renowned D-1 feeder school) so we’ll be keeping tabs on his college career.

When Kristie and Amanda were talking earlier, they discovered that both of us had purchased movie tickets to an 11:30 showing of the new Batman movie, The Dark Knight. So after dessert we headed to the theater, where we were met by a monstrous line, even thought we were 45 minutes early. Despite having to sit in the wayyy close seats, we all really loved the movie. Ledger’s Joker really did live up to the hype, as did the film in its entirety. See it if you get the chance…
