Tonight I had a Punch Drunk Love, a Take Me Back, a Romcom that I ordered to go, and a Juliette whose full name isn't on the website's menu, for some reason. They were all delicious. They were all amazing. I managed to amaze the man who'd developed them by asking about the use of milk to clarify the Punch Drunk Love and that I correctly identified there was melon somewhere in its ingredients. He wouldn't tell me what kind it was, just that it was melon.

I went to see Matewan down at Metrograph, and because I was late in buying a ticket, not only was I literally front row center, but I had the whole front row to myself. After three cocktails - the Juliette came after, as a nightcap - I was kicking my feet and sighing and laughing and doing a little moving around, and I was glad I didn't have to worry about disturbing anyone else. Just kick my feet and take in all the gorgeously shot nighttime. Chris Cooper in SUCH a first film role. James Earl Jones in SUCH command. An evening well spent.
