Happy birthday Joe!

It's my brother's birthday! Woooo!

Audium

My friend Ray asked me if I had ever been to Audium, and I had! I just forgot what it was called. It is similar to Sonic Vision, but there is no visual.. you just listen to strange sounds in the dark... It is an interesting experience (not recommended for the claustrophobic). It costs $15 and is about an hour long. If you're looking for something different, this may be right up your alley.

Speisekammer

In celebration of October and Oktoberfest, I went to Speisekammer over the weekend with some friends to have some drinks. We enjoyed some food and beer steins- it was pretty good. They had a recession menu and I had the St. Louis Lambic Belgain Ale (Raspberry)- delicious!

After Speisekammer, we ventured over to Lucky 13, where they were also celebrating Oktoberfest. (Also, Joe is pictured on the website... hehe). They had some great deals on beer steins, that you could keep.

We had a good time- wish I had pictures! Hopefully, I will be getting a new camera soon to document these nights out.

Burn After Reading

Went to see Burn After Reading and Alameda Theater on Tuesday night. It was definitely enjoyable-but overall a strange film. It really tried to have The Big Lebowski humor, and there were some funny parts. It was a little hard to follow, but was overall not that bad.

Frances McDormand and John Malkovich were excellent!
It got a little violent towards the end, but I suppose that is expected in a Coen Brothers film. I enjoyed No Country for Old Men more than this, but I think I just need to let it sink in.

Completely Obsessed with...

ASTRO BOY!


In Japan, there was a ton of Astro Boy products- key chains, shirts, mouse pads, accessories, etc.- and I am hooked. I bought an Astro Boy phone charm in a pink kimono- that I love.

I wish I bought more Astro Boy Stuff- aka the Mighty Atom- but, I will just have to browse Amazon and Ebay I suppose...
