The rest of the day was good:

  • We met at Borders. Jess’ stepsibs showed up and hung out with us, too.
  • We saw Dawn of the Dead. It was fun. Ving Rhames is a rather imposing figure; maybe not Michael Clarke Duncan imposing, but he is a big man. And, as if one could forget his role as Marcellus Wallace in Pulp Fiction, he pulls angry, snap-my-foot-off-in-your-ass characters very well. I also spent a good portion of the movie trying to suss out why Sarah Polley looked so familiar – she was Ronna in Go. (Thanks, IMDb!)

    The soundtrack/score was good, too. Muzak (*ack-thbbbpt*) versions of Don’t Worry, Be Happy and You Light Up My Life… in a zombie movie. Hysterical. And Richard Cheese and Lounge Against the Machine doing Down with the Sickness? Classic.

  • We went to one of Jess’ stepsib’s after the movie. We watched “Blue Collar Comedy Tour” on Comedy Central. I’ve never been a huge fan of Jeff Foxworthy or Bill Engvall, but they made me both laugh. Ron White, however, I had never heard of, but his pacing, delivery and style were great.
  • Did a bit of late-night grocery shopping and the Wally World Supercenter. It’s nice to go in there when it’s not teeming with shoppers and their kids. And who can complain about not having to wait in long lines? Not me.

It’s early and I have to get up later, so I should wrap this up.

Namaste.
