I had a great night!

First, we had dinner at an Italian restaurant--a candlelit dinner on the balcony under a big heater. What can I say? We're wusses in So Cal. It would have been all kinds of romantic but we were literally across the street from the race track, so every 5-10 minutes, it sounded like the end of the world...but the food was great. And then we went to a little coffee shop and got my favorite ice cream in the world (mint oreo) and some cafe mocha. Then we walked over to the theater and we got seats right in the front row and the show was fantastic again! And sexy! Though there was a 10 year old boy sitting behind us yelling random things a tthe stage. Apparently he didn't understand the difference between random things and the very exact lines other people were yelling. His parents tried to explain it but he didn't get it.

What I want to know is, who honestly believes Rocky Horror is a good place for ten year old boys? Just because it was on a college campus?! I hate parents sometimes...

Ok, I have to admit, as hot as "Rocky" was, I still liked "Eddy" better...I have a slight, platonic crush on him...(the kid who played Eddy that is...)

And then we stopped by the Adult Book Store and I finally got the Rabbit. What I had up to thispoint was a cheap knockoff that quite frankly was far inferior.

So all in all, it was a good night.

I think tomorrow if I'm not painfully lazy I'll go to Pasadena to a writer's workshop. Except it's more poetry and really, I think I've had enough poetry. There's also a workshop I might go to Thursday night...again, it's in Pasadena, so my laziness might overwhelm my desire to drive all the way to pasadena, but we'll see....

I have to agree with you. Several years ago a friend of mine saw a two young children (about 5 and 7) at the movie Seven. ::shrug:: I just have to wonder what they are thinking.

They aren't thinking. They don't want to pay a babysitter, so they just drag their rugrats everywhere. These are the same kind of people who brought an infant to the movie The Patriot even though anyone with a modicum of sense would realize that a movie about a war would have a lot of loud gunfire.

Choosing to have a kid means arranging your life around the kid, not the lives of innocent bystanders. Grr.

Despite all that, it sounds like a good night for pepper. Yay. :)

I'm not so opposed to a 10 yr old seeing Rocky as I am annoyed at the fact that they would let him think it's ok to yell things out during a stage production even if there is "audience participation". I saw RHPS when I was 2 and yes I remembered it quite vividly so I'm not one to throw stones at the age of the kid just the saying random things part...bad form on the parents part.
