Long Time Coming Part 2: Cometh, Nightman

I watched 9 when in the bay area the other week. What a beautiful movie with the worst characters and writing ever. Nine is the biggest Mary Sue ever, and the other characters are just stereotypes in wicker doll form. And critics were complaining about G.I. Joe having characters too 2-D?

Tonight I saw The Nightman Cometh, the It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia musical, live. Hi-fucking-larious! It was insanely crowded and sweltering in the theater but totally worth it. They showed a preview of an upcoming episode which is simply genius. Season 5 and still going strong, it's incredible.

But I had to drive into and out of Hollywood on a Friday night, which is like taking a match to the dry brush of my road rage. Learn how right of way works, mob of 50 bicyclists performing a Philadelphia left turn and blocking all traffic! I raged so hard that I sang a song about how I wanted to murder the bad drivers. How impressed I was with my ability to make lyrics up on the spot! Maybe improv classes won't be a complete disaster after all! We'll see in just 2 days.

When I arrived home, however, my ire was melted away by the sight of seeing a 3 year old kid walking his Bischon Frise down our street with his parents. He was barely bigger than the dog but they looked so cute walking together, especially when he let go of the leash and the dog continued walking nonchalantly alongside. I need a dog.
