Evening out, morning in.

A couple of short naps through the day helped deal with a late night out last night, and while I can't regret my choices and accept the dignity of risk, I'm glad I was able to schedule a day to recover. I would've gotten to bed earlier if the train had stopped in the usual station, but I had to make two transfers instead of one, and I got back around when the pizza places started to close. I'm rarely out that late, ever, and it's a sign I'm also up too early.

Last night it was a screening of Mission Impossible 2 out in Brooklyn on a 35mm print that probably hasn't been played since 2000. Two people co-hosted an introduction to it, asking if it's worth reconsidering, and given the volume of cheers and clapping in the audience throughout, it very much is. I've joked it's a movie that makes more sense on a big screen; during the intro, I raised my hand to tell the hosts that a friend of mine described it as "effervescently pre-9/11" and "a film that could only have been made before the towers fell", which they thought was perfect. Afterwards, I commented that it was the horniest the MI movies got, explaining that while De Palma did sensual, Woo managed horny, and it was lovely to see that in a big theater.

I had a total of three cocktails over the course of the night and was still a little buzzed when I got back. I'd have slept well, other than for how little I managed on account of how late I'd gone to bed and how early I'd stayed up.
