It’s incredibly nice out right now. Part of my is itching to go hang out in the park and watch kickball. Another part of me really wants to go to the mall to see V Factory. Another part of me wants to nap. And another part of me–the part that will win, ultimately–is the part that has a tentative photo shoot set up this afternoon with a very bossy six-year old. It’s for an art project I’m doing, one whose deadline is alarmingly close. Between today and tomorrow I need to get four or five more shoots done. And since I’m sharing the car with the boyfriend–and since we’re going to see John Parish and PJ Harvey in Boston tonight–I’m not sure what I’ll be able to manage.
For those of you that are in Providence, tonight’s the second and final night of Happy Endings?*, a movie about the Korean massage parlor industry in Rhode Island. It’s screening at the Columbus–an old-timey movie theater turned porn cinema turned indie theater again; I interviewed the film’s director, Tara Hurley, the other day for an article I’m writing, and I think it’s going to be a pretty good movie. (I haven’t actually seen it yet, and the chance to see PJ Harvey overrides anything else that might be happening tonight.)
(*Not to be confused with the Lisa Kudrow/Steve Coogan/Tom Arnold/Maggie Gyllenhaal/Laura Dern movie Happy Endings)
