A Day Out!

Lorraine and Jon arranged for a 'private showing' of "Winter's Bone" at the Magic Lantern, so Katie, Pia and I joined them and enjoyed a matinee!  It was a lot of fun to have the theater to ourselves (and P & K STILL chose seats right in front of me), and the movie was excellent, recommend it highly.

I did catch a lot of shit for being sure one of the characters was played by Casey Affleck, which everyone immediately shot down.  Oh well, I still think he looked like Casey (albeit a much older more gnarly version).  Also, Jon would have been perfect casting in this movie, which takes place in the Ozarks, provided he was willing to get some prison tats and lose a few teeth.

On our way out, we found the parking meter had been "yarn bombed":
Fun!  Katie & I then went shopping, and I found a cute linen blouse at the Bon Clearance Center for $11.00, so I have one thing for Roatan!

what the hell is yarn bombed???

Laurie said...

a type of graffiti or street art that employs colorful displays of knitted or crocheted cloth rather than paint or chalk. And now you know!

we yarn bombed at mill creek town center - and then they took it down about a month later - it was awesome while it lasted . . .

Only in Spokane would something get 'yarn bombed'!

oh Megan - so untrue! It started in Europe and there is actually incredible "bombing" all over the place in June (world-wide Knit in Public week)- Mill Creek had some good bombing - but they are short-sighted and removed it - boo on them

I'd rather yarn bomb than bomb-bomb. If ya know what I mean
