Aug. 20th, 2007 10:14 pmSo, I went up to
libralyte's for the weekend. So much fun.
I left right after work on Friday. And got stuck in traffic at the DE/PA line because there was a crash in Chester (that was off to the side of the road by the time I got there, but the road's obscenely narrow). Then a couple miles down the road, I got stuck in traffic *again*. The funny part about the second time? There were those flip signs saying that traffic was congested from above the airport through Broad Street. I got stuck in traffic about 2.5/3 miles *south* of the airport. When I finally did get to the airport, it took me about 20 minutes to get from one end of the airport complex to the other on the highway - which normally takes me 2 minutes, if that. And once I got to the Broad Street exit, everything opened up. Why you might ask? The Eagles had a preseason game and practically everyone in the tri-state area was there. So, what normally takes me an hour and half, took me about three.
We hung out when I got up to
libralyte's and watched "Psych" - which I had never seen before and it was fun.
Saturday, we went to the Grange, which is a fair sort of thing. We didn't stay very long because it's basically the same stuff every year, but we had fun checking out the animals. And I fell in love with this gray flop bunny. He was very cute and kept nuzzling my finger with his nose and rearing up on his back legs. Though,
libralyte said that that might've been just because he was hungry. And I got sarsparilla soda! I haven't had that in years. A local grocery store used to carry it from time to time years ago, but then it closed and I haven't seen it anywhere else.
We then went over to her aunt's house because
libralyte's going to be dog sitting for them this week while they're away's going to be dog sitting for them this week while they're away. She made me watch Talladega Nights. Parts of it were fun, but - meh. I'm not really a Will Ferrell fan.
And we went to the movies and saw Death at a Funeral. I quite enjoyed it and Alan Tudyk was amazing.
Sunday, we hung out in the morning, then went out for lunch and went to see Stardust because
libralyte wanted to see it. I enjoyed it immensely the second time around and
libralyte absolutely loved it.
After getting some yummy ice cream from Cold Stone Creamery, we went back to
libralyte's aunt's house. I decided to leave about 5:30 because I was worried about vacation traffic. I did hit a little bit of traffic because of construction, but it wasn't that bad and I made it home pretty quickly. Though, I decided once I got back into town that I didn't want to go home just yet, so I went and saw The Last Legion. OMG, it was awesome! You all need to go see it. It's just - gah! It's got Colin Firth, Ben Kingsley, Aishwarya Rai, and John Hannah.
