Every saint has a past; every sinner has a future
What an amazing weekend. Friday night, four friends and I carpooled to the vacation hotspot that is Kenosha, Wisconsin. We visited with old friends, made new ones, and had a lovely evening. Saturday night, Allie and her roommate Brittany, and I decided to check out one of Chicago's more famous blues clubs - Blues Chicago. Although the music was the best live blues I have ever seen I will never go back. It is expensive, dirty, way too hot, way too crowded, way too loud, and just wasn't worth the hassle. I know I am sounding like a bit of diva, but if I am going to pay $15, I want to be at least a little comfortable. Sunday was about sleeping in, making dinner, and relaxing. I did watch the first two episodes of the show, Alias. I wish someone would have recommended I watch this show earlier. Jennifer Garner is terrific, the writing is cool, the story is interesting; and if you can get past the ubiquitous techno music, it is a great show. I am looking forward to seeing how the series goes.
1. Saturday afternoon I sucked it up, paid the big bucks, and saw a movie in the theaters. I saw Shutter Island. I really liked it. I give it an A-/B+. It is scary in the way Alfred Hitchcock movies are scary. I saw a poster for it that said it is psychologically tormenting. I think that is a good way to sum it up. Although the end is mildly predictable, it is still worth the price of admission.
2. If you are feeling spendy and you enjoy alcohol, I highly recommend you buy a bottle of Chambord. It is a pricey french liquor that has a sweet, raspberry flavor. You basically just add a little bit to a shot, or a martini, and it makes it much, much better.
Currently listening to "Hallelujah". Written by Leonard Cohen, but performed masterfully by Jeff Buckley.

Alias is by far my favorite drama series. I have all the seasons on DVD.
I have to warn you. Although season 1-3 are EPIC, towards the end of 4 is where it start to fade. Thats when JJ Abrams became a hot shot and made a little show called "LOST" and directed MI:3
Season 5 i'll admit kind of sucked and got all weird since JJ was completely out of the production process, and it didn't help Jennifer Garner got pregnant.
But at least it wasn't cancelled and actually ended with a series finale.
Regardless, I highly reccomend it.
Even when used in the context of sarcasm I'm still quite sure it's illegal somewhere to classify Kenosha, Wisconsin as a "vacation hotspot"...
