{{{Sean}}} I hope you find something quickly to ease the tension and make things a bit easier. I've found that in spite of the romantic notion that "all you need is love", sometimes money helps, too.

Just got back from seeing A History of Violence. The Corpse Bride showing for this evening was too early for us to make it to dinner so we chose Viggo.

So I figured why we don't do this very much. Dinner for two--which was just BURGERS (but including 3 draft beers for DH and dessert for me) = $47. Two adult movie tickets = $17. 4 hours of babysitting = $40

Yeesh. But hey, BIRTHDAY! It was good.

Move along.

Ooh, I forgot former roomate is the banner photo for the Galleries page.

Ah, OK. Hi Daisy! Yay getting a job!

Sounds expensive, Cash! Though tickets are getting to $10 here, which is annoying--I mean, there are some movies I don't mind paying that for, but others...and a lot of places don't really "do" matinees (or rather, matinee prices!) anymore--just for the very first movie of the day (at like...noon). Which is bad enough on Saturday, but on a weekday? Please.

The one with the blue spikey hair, spiked collar, and nose ring?

He doesn't have a nose ring. Otherwise, that's the fellow.

Actually, he seems to be at the top of most of the submenus, doesn't he? Nifty.

Overtime is good for me. Overtime is good for me. Overtime means more spending money for L.A., right?

But wow, I don't want to be proofing these topics anymore.

Yeah. It's craxy with the prices. There are some thing we can do--I could have found coupons for discount tickets, but this theatre is never crowded, has good seats (AND A BAR!). And it is right next door to a few good restaurants that we can walk to downtown (where DH can use his parking pass for the parking garage). So we were pretty much paying for convenience.

If we hadn't been celebratin', though. We'd have skipped dinner. Of course that's still nearly $60 to see the movie alone with the sitter. So needless to say a movie had better be fan-fucking-tastic for that price.

Ooook....does Daisy live in Texas?

Yes!

Or is this some other person who rhymes with that? And what the heck rhymes with Jane?

My middle name.

He doesn't have a nose ring.

Huh. Did I just add one, mentally? Weird.

Yes. It does.
