Datey McDates (and TWO Five Word Movie Reviews)

Matt and I went on a special sojourn last night that did not involve either the dogs or Home Depot. That's right. A DATE. I even wore earrings.

We had dinner at Encore (the new restaurant attached to the new Tattered Cover) and many drinks later (word, they had ZOLO - made RIGHT HERE!), went to see The Visitor at the Neighborhood Flix joint attached. The Visitor was somewhat somnolent. Indeed, I had come up with my five word review PRIOR to seeing the movie, which I stand by ("Strange combination: cloying and genuine") but Matt's came mid-way when he said loudly, "Molasses uphill in the winter."

But the best part? Neighborhood Flix has loooove seats with ottomans where you can snuggle up to your sweetness (or, you know, "get to third") with no one any the wiser. Or that's what I told myself the second time I fell asleep sprawled all over Matt like a cheap date suit. Suffice it, I left the theater with my head ducked hoping no one had heard our commentary or our snoring. BUT I highly recommend the place. And hope that other theaters start following their lead in terms of having a full bar, decent independent movies and a place to catch a snooze. It's like a mozzarella, basil and tomato combo...it just works. Someone alert Images. Please.
