My friends rule! Above we just finished seeing Kick Ass and decided to get Benny's Burritos in the East Village. L-R: Jaime, Andrew, Erica, Jim, Steve, and Amber. I was at head of table.
Friday:
- Dancing around in my living room to the Avett Brothers
while I cleaned and waited for the book club members to arrive
WAR & PARTY - our final book club meeting regarding War & Peace! It was hiliarious. More to come, along with video (maybe)
Saturday:
Brunch with Jim & Amber
Kick-Asswith the crew above - entertaining film though I watched with a certain incredulousness. Also, way to go Nicolas Cage for finally "bringing it" to a recent film.
Benny's Burritos!
Law & Order Sexy Crimes - err, I mean SVU - at the homestead and then some SNL. Our efforts in obtaining ice cream cake for the occasion sadly failed.
Sunday:
Amber, Erica, and I woke up and decided it was just the right time to watch Antichrist
We quickly discovered it is NEVER the right time to watch that movie, and save your mind and your eyes the horror of taking in such disgusting dreck
Dinner with Gaby, Jim, and Erica
Dragonetteat Brooklyn Bowl with Gaby, Erica, Rob, Kylie Minogue
, Dana, etc. Wait, what?! Yes - Kylie Minogue was bowling in Brooklyn on a Sunday night. I didn't see her, but all I can picture is her bowling in a sequined minidress and platform heels
Dragonette killing it, as they do with every live show!
After the show, we were milling about with friends talking (mainly about Kylie Minogue) when a guy interrupted us and extended his hand. I started shaking it in confusion as he said, "You were great up there! Great show!" and I said, "Oh, that wasn't me...." and he apologized and said it was "the hair." Yes, we both have short hair, but Martina, the lead singer of Dragonette is currently sporting a bowl cut, so I was a little self-conscious after that dude's comment! (Here's a picture of her from last night!) The guy was a little on the dense side, since I was wearing a completely different outfit, had a purse, jacket, UMBRELLA, and...not a bowl cut. In fact, this is what I looked like last night. And though Martina is badass and gorgeous and can actually pull off that style, I thought the moment was hilarious.
I'm excited for this week because it culminates in the reunion of me and Jesse! YAY!
How was your weekend?
I want to see Dragonette!!! :(
ReplyDeleteOnce again, loving the nail polish!
Sounds like an awesome weekend! Jealous that you saw Dragonette!
ReplyDeleteAlso...Kylie Minogue? I forgot she existed.
I haven't watched Antichrist but don't be turned off from Van Trier if that was your first. Dogville and Dancer in the Dark are great films.
ReplyDeleteI watched Kick-Ass this weekend too and had a gaping mouth the entire time. I also watched How To Train Your Dragon though which was absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend that.

ReplyDeleteI hate not being able to delete or edit. Well, I must also agree that Nic Cage was great in Kick-Ass. That warehouse scene was stellar.
Jessica - I love, love, love Dancer in the Dark. Also, probably the most depressing movie I've ever seen. But I loved it. Antichrist is...well...lots of bad things happen to the "bathingsuit areas" of the characters. And it's not pleasant or entertaining or necessary. At all!
