Yesterday...

i went to town and saw a movie for the first time in arcata's Minor Theatre. it totally surprised me, because inside that dull exterior is apparently the 'oldest feature film theatre in the united states' and it's gorgeous! it has a beautiful grandfather clock in the lobby, the rooms (there are two) have a balcony level, like a theatre for plays, and that's where we sat. it also had new seats, on which there were arms that can fold back...i was wondering when the movie theater business would catch on to that. we also went to the donut shop, and the girl who works there had come from a gift exchange, where she got a rubik's cube that was all one color. she thought it was the worst gift ever, and gave it to us. i thought it was the coolest thing ever ("i'll finally be able to solve one of these things!") and so i claimed it.

Also, funny story from yesterday. my version: my roommate got up before i did, and went to breakfast with a friend, and i was just waking up when i heard her keying into the door. i was like 'i'm going to sit up and pretend that i've been up for a while' but when my roommate walked in (may i remind you that the lights were off) it took her a second to see me, and apparently i scared her really bad, cus she's like 'oh shit' when she saw me and turned around and went back into the hallway and started laughing.
her version: she walks in there, and doesn't notice me at first, then she looks over and just sees me sitting straight up, not moving, staring at her with really wide eyes and no expression. she said 'it was like the exorcist or something!' and it really freaked her out. yea, i've been teased quite a bit about my morning expressions now, and i wish i could watch myself, because it sounds like i could get a good laugh.
