Wall-E

I decided to give myself a treat today. I took a short lunch so I could leave a bit early and catch the 4:15 showing of Wall-E at the Chenal 9. I hurried to get out there, and walked into the theatre at 4:16. There was a preview running when I walked in and realized that I was the only person in the theatre. I sat in the best seat in the house and waited through a couple more previews and a wonderful animated short feature before the movie began.

If you haven’t seen Wall-E, you should. It’s a wonderful film — the kind of thing Pixar does so very well.

After the movie I headed back into town to have dinner at the Laughing Moon Cafe (formerly Sufficient Grounds). There weren’t many people there, not too surprising on a Tuesday night, but the food was good, if a bit pricey.

All-in-all, an enjoyable evening. I should do things like that more often.

I'm not such a fan of movie theaters, but I couldn't wait to see this movie. Nolen and I went and saw it opening night and it made me so happy. I just loved it. Maybe not my favorite Pixar movie, but definitely, definitely worth the watch. I would go see it again, no doubt.

They got bought out and renamed. The decor is unchanged, the food is mostly the same, the prices are slightly higher, and I can't really speak to the atmosphere, since I haven't spent much time there recently.

as long as theyll make me a grilled cheese with mushrooms, i guess everything will be cool -

i used to spend a ridiculous amount of time at sufficient, but that was back when stan, tolley and matt were pretty much the only people working there, and it seemed more welcoming and comfortable...also before there were more tables than couches - i really hated it the last time i was there because it didnt seem as relaxed or something. in short: i miss the old sufficient grounds.
