I am forever thankful for a dark (family!) comedy centered around so many women who are delightfully unhinged in their own unique ways, and that I could see it on 35mm at the @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social.

I love living in a city: started today with bowling at 12pm, watched the afternoon football games at a local sports bar, then went to see Jay Kelly @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social and topped off my night seeing Cut Copy at the Ramova Theater. And home before 11pm.
