BEACH BUMMED
Jul. 31st, 2006 04:28 pmWeekend was nice -- started out on Friday night at ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
moroccomole's new "midnight movie" series at the Lammle, which kicked off in grand queer style with Cruising. I'd never seen it, and found it equal parts entertaining and terrible. I can see why, at the time, gay groups were so up in arms about it -- but these days, I found nothing really offensive about it. It's definitely a time capsule. And watching Al Pacino dance was worth the ticket price alone.
Met a couple of new LJ people at the theater on Friday night, includingburlyinthebay, and we met up for lunch and a stroll on Santa Monica beach on Sunday afternoon. Being in his neighborhood made me long for living near the ocean again (I lived in Dana Point every summer as a teenager), but then realized a run-down, one-bedroom 1920s fixer-upper bungalow in between 4th and 5th goes for a cool million-plus, and my longing turned to mild disgust.
