charlie’s brother, chris, was in town so we did a lot of fun stuff:
Friday
- portillo’s – chicago red hots and italian beefs
- border’s – hour until movie starts
- ‘miami vice‘ – most satisfying deaths ever
- michigan ave. at night
Saturday
- dick’s sporting goods – buy swimsuits, encounter employees unhappy with their jobs
- jimmy john’s
- beach – swim, sunbathe, fly kites, i watch chris and charlie throw a football at each others’ crotches, the lifeguards tell us that basically, fun is not allowed in the water
- showers and blessed blessed air conditioning
- la pasadita for carne asada burritos
- travis’s – margaritas, bond with kareem re: macgyver is kickass, watch ‘unbreakable’
- tuman’s – meet up with puma crowd, drinking, dancing
Sunday
- sleep in
- cubs vs. cardinals @ wrigley – free tix from chase via travis. see pitchers heckled, lots of fouls to catch, see guy with leatheriest neck i’ve ever seen, four-game sweep for the cubs
- deluxe diner
- too much light makes the baby go blind @ the neo-futurists – can’t wait to go again!
how is it the deaths are so satisfying?
some of the characters are just real assholes and when they die it’s naturally very satisfying, or there’s just really impressive shooting.
so were satisfying deaths the only good thing about it? you really need to start doing reviews of these movies. how else am i supposed to know what to see?
