A for Awesome

I'm in Austin, Texas, enjoying my vacation. The weather is in the 80s and sunny. The city is pleasant and filled with fun activities. I'm reading a lot of tax (but not too much) in nice little Starbuckses, and exploring the city with Boyfriend in the afternoon.

Tonight we saw V for Vendetta. Excellent film. I really, really liked it. There is a lot going on in the movie; at time it feels crowded and over-stuffed, both plot-wise and philosophically. But it is a ton of fun and very moving and features a cast of fantastic actors. Definitely see it if you still haven't done so.

The movie theater we saw it in, Draft House, was also awesome! It is a theater that serves a full dinner and alcohol while you watch the movie. Every chair has a table and candle before it, and it was soooo enjoyable feasting on an excellent pizza and drinking a pale ale while watching the action flick. I can't believe this movie chain hasn't gone national yet!
