Anna Faris was really good in this movie! She’s got comedic chops to spare, and I can’t wait to see “The House Bunny.”

In other news, I want to go to Tokyo.

Because the last pair I bought spontaneously dismembered (and I kept the screw but couldn’t find a screwdriver small enough, so I gave up hoping to repair them).

Now sporting a cute pair of aviators from American Eagle Men’s eyewear. Purchased at an AE outlet and after serious deliberation of many fine candidates!

“Excuse me,” – at one point a woman made as if she wanted to walk past me to the back of the store. I moved to the side, and then she and her son (husband? boyfriend? his age was that ambiguous) set up shop right in front of the sunglasses rack. Fine, it’s cool. The man looked a little embarassed when I resumed trying on sunglasses and explained the delay to my friends.
