Seemed like a good idea at the time

[yendi]

So, after shadesong and I got back from brunch at Crescent Moon (yay for a Northlake location!), I decided that it would be a good idea to head to the Village Market to pick up a few groceries.

That 3/4 mile walk gets a lot longer in 90 degree weather. I foolishly assumed that after I got past the first quarter mile (all uphill), things would be fine. Heh.

Walking back wasn't much better, as a backpack full of flour, milk, and butter (um, in appropriately sealed containers) makes for more exercise that I had planned. I've been chugging water nonstop since then.

In other news, tomorrow night I'll be seeing a sneak preview of I Robot (You Jane) with LJ-less Gerry. I do not have the highest expectations for it. Then again, the last time I got a free pass to an Alex Proyas movie which looked no-so-faithful to the original source material, it was a little flick called The Crow. So you never know.

Crow Schmoe! It's all about DARK CITY, my man!

Good lord do I love that movie...

Dark City is the perfect example of a movie that needs to be seen twice. First time I saw it, I was so underwhelmed. I gave it another chance when Siskel called it the best movie of the year, and it grew on me, a lot.

That said, it was neither a movie I saw for free, nor an adaptation, so I didn't lump it with the other two.

Crescent Moon, Crescent Moon!!! Mmmmmmm!!!! I wanna heap!

The new location is so convenient, and way bigger. Same yummy food.

Is the other place still open too, or did they move?

[yendi]

The other one's open too, so it's just a question of whether your other stops include Decatur off-beat stuff, or Northlake mainstream stuff. Of course, since the Northlake one is three times as close, that's also a factor for us. :-)
