a grave saturday

when i was invited to watch a movie this saturday at the cemetary with a few friends, in my brain, i thought "wtf?" but with my mouth i said "yes." it's like a batter fried twinkie...it feels wrong but i still want to try it kwim? so my main squeeze and i packed our reusable costco bag with blankets and potstickers for sitting and eating and checked out "cinespia" at the hollywood forever cemetary (http://www.cinespia.org/calendar/). holy guacamole look at the line! who knew hanging out with the dead was so popular?! it took almost 30 minutes to get to the front of the line.

cool ivy covered building shot.

if watching a movie in a cemetary isn't weird enough, you are also encouraged to bring a picnic basket and drinks. somehow, eating amongst the dead did not make it on my list of "must do's" till that saturday. i think if i think about it too much, it is creepy. so i didn't...i started people watching instead and noticed all the bags folks were carrying their food and libations in.

i definitely see a trend towards reusable bags. YAY, gooooo green!...trader joes, whole foods, and even a big blue ikea bag were hanging about the line. my main squeeze has a few himself, a big ole costco bag and trader joe's bags which we use for groceries and quick picnics. good thing he carries them most of the time because they are ooooglly....does chanel make something of the like? i kid....

when we finally got in, a brisk walk to the seating area meant tombstone sightings. eewww...may you rest in peace....all of yous.

this picture has an anne rice-ish quality to it minus the overtly sexual vampires that usually romps about in her books. still spooky. i wouldn't be caught dead hanging about here....hey wait a minute! movie...yes, gotcha.

if you squint a bit, you might be able to see marilyn manroe in "some like it hot." total tangent, but dang, she wore some pretty risque outfits and the funny thing is that her tits hung pretty low. perhaps firm and perky is a more contemporary thing because those boobies DID NOT look sexy to me at all.

and then the night ended and we went our merry ways...alive and kicking.
