But, I am very excited about it!

Doc Films is showing Coen brothers movies every Wednesday. I was wondering if anyone wanted to come over for dinner ~7 p.m. one of those nights and then go to the ~9 p.m. showing of one of the films. I can't do it this coming week, but maybe one of the following weeks?

Dates and films are as follows:
Wednesday, February 18 • 7:00 & 9:15 PM • 94min Blood Simple
Wednesday, February 25 • 7:00 PM & 9:15 • 106min O Brother Where Art Thou?
(March 4th: Fly meeting, I can't do it.)
Wednesday, March 11 • 7:00 & 9:15 PM • 100min Intolerable Cruelty

Anyone want to go to this on Sat?

anyone planning to see the Theatre Oobleck election play? http://www.theateroobleck.com/

I wasn't really gone *that* long, but I felt really disconnected to everything when I got back from my trip Wednesday night. I basically just spent the past 4 days trying to get back to this time zone, my normal routine, work and my apartment. I think I have a handle on what I need to do at work for the next few days. My apartment seems under control. I have a shopping list and a plan to prepare to my parents' visit. I know there are going to be some issues, but maybe if I just accept that the next week and a half of planning will be less stressful. I'm hoping to have everything pretty much set so that I can go to Pitchfork this coming weekend!

can you recommend a good restaurant near Schubas or The Empty Bottle?

does anyone have an air mattress i could borrow the wednesday and thursday night before memorial day weekend?
i have two people who don't know each other staying with me and i don't think they will want to sleep on the futon together.

Thanks!
