So, I got together with Roomie yesterday. SlushieMan had to work, so it was just us. (Yes, some people work on Sundays. We *DO* live outside the Nation’s Capital. *snort*) It was good for both of us.
We went out to lunch at a new place down where I live. It masquerades as an Irish pub on the outside, but it really isn’t. I was disappointed. The food wasn’t bad. I had a Ceasar Salad for lunch. Roomie had some house specialty salad that had cranberries in it. (Ew.)
After lunch, movie time. Woo. I haven’t been to a movie in freakin’ forever. Went to see “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”. I was withholding judgement because I loved the original – but this one was fantastic. I should never doubt Tim Burton and Johnny Depp. Not to mention, it so didn’t look like Johnny Depp at ALL. It was really creepy. You got an occasional glimpse of him, but overall – phew. Amazing. The movie was very well done. Very much worth my matinee price of $6.50. (*goes into old lady mode* I remember when the matinee price was $3 dollars . . . )
Overall – I think yesterday was exactly what the doctor ordered for both Roomie and for me. We had a good time and I want to do it again soon. Hopefully, SlushieMan won’t have to work.
