yesterday Anne was feeling better so i met Nikole and her for lunch downtown...then we went to the Stax museum...i'd never been...we kinda rushed through it 'cuz it was nearing closing plus we had a movie to catch...the movie(s) being Grindhouse...it was pretty sweet...the Rodriguez movie was very nice and even though the Tarantino one sucked most of the way through (the "trademarked" pointless dialogue being just painful!) the payoff towards the end was totally worth it! and the fake commercials were awesome...David and Phoebe were there too and we saw them briefly...then when Mary Beth got off work the four of us went for dinner...aftering searching for places open on a sunday night and being dismayed by TWO Huey'ses having bands playing we ended up Dan McGuiness even though the only food they were selling at that point was appetizers and salads...so Nikole and Anne are off for Cedar Rapids, IA and i hope they've made it there now that it's dark and pre-dark was their goal...hopefully their stop here wasn't too lame...my coldness so far hasn't progressed too much...it started to seem like it was getting better...but like 2 hours ago i kinda started getting stuffy...we'll see...anyway, in the mail today: Wolf Eyes & Anthony Braxton: Black Vomit...
