Aug. 15th, 2006 12:20 amWent to Old Spaghetti Factory and saw TALLADEGA NIGHTS with Jon, white Eric, Leslie (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
glowing_dragon), and Nathan. It was pretty good! My close friends rock, and so does my girl! I have to send Leslie the list of coincidences between me and Fay sometime...
Ricky Bobby is so weird, man! Will Farrell is cool! Gotta hang out at Leslie's B-Day thing too!
We talked about Shanghai Wind, their friend Jen's potluck last night, online dating (not for Nathan or Leslie right now... maybe if they're 45 and single!), chemistry shattered by stuff you find out about people, (the coincidences in) mine and Fay's relationship (I need to send Leslie those things), their friend Dallas (Drake? Willard? Texas? he chose his name when he immigrated here, whatever nickname the guys choose!), joking about everything from Nathan and Leslie really screwing me over to our being really hateful, blogging (Leslie needs to send Nathan the link to my blog), psychology, counselling, how both Nathan and Leslie had helped me (the dinner crew was a few of my closest friends!), the motives behind a guy putting a picture of his girlfriend on his desk (voluntarily or not), the way their friend Sean can be at times (partying and such in New York?), gossiping, Jeremy's homemade beer, etc. Also, we got the "movie ticket and dinner" deal... these certificates expire in two years, so Leslie was able to use the one that her friends Ivan and Karen bought. (that expired in November)
We met Jon and Eric M. at the movie theatre to see TALLADEGA NIGHTS, and Jon made Nathan talk to Myles and Holly's sister Harmony for a bit while he got his movie ticket. Jon says the joke is that he met her at a cougar bar, but they really met at some church thing in Toronto. When there was a reference to cougars (the animal) in the movie, Leslie told Jon that he should tell his friend Fred to see it, haha. (they have an inside joke about the older women who prey on younger men) White Eric told him to hang up since he'd been talking on his phone ever since he picked him up, heh. We saw a preview with an interesting premise for a movie (STRANGER THAN FICTION): this author is writing a book, but has writer's block on how to kill her character. What she doesn't know is that her character is really a living person who hears her voice everywhere he goes! (kinda like ADAPTATION... Jon and Leslie both said "interesting premise" at the same time when we saw that preview, haha!) Then there was one for an animated kids' movie called FLUSHED AWAY... Jon thinks that potty humor is Leslie's thing, but she and I don't agree! (it can be fun, but no...)
The movie and outtakes were kinda funny... hilarious prayers to "the eight-pound, six-ounce tiny Jesus" and pleas for help from Tom Cruise / Oprah Winfrey / Allah! The gay French dude was reading Albert Camus (L'ENTRANGER) while racing, and also drinking a mocchiato! Then there was a kiss between the Ricky Bobby character and the French dude at the end... nice reference to an earlier part of dialogue! (but ew?) The soundtrack was cool: AC/DC, Mötley Crüe, etc. When Monster Magnet's SPACE LORD came on, Jon asked Leslie if she remembered his obsession with that song in Grade 11... of course, and he still has the CD! After the movie, we discussed plans to play Ultimate tomorrow, then went our separate ways toward home... we smelled pot on our way out of Silvercity, yum! (or not... I've never tried it!)
