Yesterday was an awesome day. The Dark Knight premiered, and we had tickets for the IMAX at high noon! I was really excited to see it, and it was even more fun to go with Gillian, the Ultimate Fangirl. Plus, since I've been reading the now-classic Batman graphic novels, I feel so educated about the story and the characters, which sounds nerdy, but makes it even better!
And we were (sort-of accidentally) First In Line, which meant that we had the best seats in the IMAX hiz-ouse! Do I even have to say that the movie was incredible? No, I didn't think so.
Then, Bite of Seattle & the Fresh Impressionists exhibit at SAM. It was okay... I'm just so spoiled, having been to France many a time and seeking out & seeing tons of impressionist works. The point of the exhibit was to show how some of the Great Masters of Impressionism were influenced by previous artists... which I feel is a bit of a "duh." It was cool to go to SAM though, because I hadn't been since I was young, and the only thing I remembered was a sculpture of a toilet, complete with excrement (yes, that's how little I was- the poo made the biggest impression on me).
I dropped Gillian off and went to my parent's house and had a great dinner. They just got back from MT and brought a box full of old photos to go through, courtesy of Big Teeny. I found proof of my inner superhero, even as a youngster; I'll leave you with that.
