My daily pop culture diary day 13

sun. before Valentine’s Day.

“I’ve got the guilt of a father for you and I’ve got the guilt of a son.” Buffalo Tom

I’m listening to Buffalo Tom (their music makes me believe for a split second that life is as simple as I want it to be) and recounting this fantastic day.

It started with sleeping in until the breezy hour of 10 a.m. and if I’d been up a minute earlier, I wouldn’t have had my husband opening the bedroom door at the same time, proclaiming that he had gotten us breakfast burritos :)

After eating, I took some OWC friends to the new Adam Sandler film Just go With it…and honestly, if you take the titles advice…it’s not half as bad as Sandlers other fart/dick-riddled travesties. This might be kind of a wank fest since none of the female leads seem to ever be wearing bras – but it’s not vulgar and I really like that Jennifer Anniston seems to be controlling all focus instead of the other girl or Sandler. In short, this film really wasn’t as bad as other media outlets proclaimed. It might not be worth seeing in theaters…but what really is anymore?

PM paid back Ry for his burritos surprise with steaks from Wohlner’s ( a kind of high end local grocer) and we watched the Parking Lot Movie, a cool/hipster documentary featuring the bassist from Yo La Tengo. I’d heard this described as Clerks as a documentary and that was an instant sell for me.

I’ll sign off now while I listen to Explosions in the Sky and wait for Ry to get done setting up my new phone so we can play some Scene It! on XBox. Happy Valentine’s!!!
