My Little CrockPot of News and Thoughts

Trick or Treat: "Pumpkins with mostly happy faces" ... Hope everyone is having a grand Halloween. Our Halloween was fun. My old roommate, Tony and his girlfriend Andrea, came down from Georgia for a visit. We did a lot of fun stuff... Thursday was Waterloo Icehouse and Waterloo Records for food and fun. Friday we hit the Alamo Drafthouse for I HEART HUCKABEES. Very funny movie, by the way. I highly recommend it. Saturday brought a trip to Rudy's for BBQ and a trip to the famed Sixth Street for ghoulish fun... I saw things that made me laugh, cry, and a couple of things that just made me feel dirty. I missed the Dia de los Muertos opening at La Pena. Tony and Andrea had to leave this morning... we hated to see them go, but are excited about their next trip back. This afternoon Amanda and I went and saw THE GRUDGE at a local movie theater. I think I would have enjoyed it if I could have heard it. Apparently all parents in the greater Austin area with Jr High students dropped their kids (with cell phones) off for the five o'clock showing. I think I'm being punished for my short stint as a teacher...
