Back in Ann Arbor, Mike and myself have been busy working on the SATCOM project, watching movies, and eating plenty of Oreo Cakesters of the double-stuffed variety. The weather has been garbage here with highs of about 50 degrees and rain almost everyday. Luckily, it was sunny and pleasant this weekend which was the least the weather could do for ruining the week. On Saturday I woke up bright and early to head to Kiwanis Club in downtown Ann Arbor. It's a cool thrift store but like many awesome thrift stores there is always a catch; this one is only open on Saturdays from 9 am to noon. For some reason I actually woke up and got there by 9 and found a fine pair of shorts for $2.
The outside on a beautiful Saturday morning.
The inside on the first floor. There is a basement downstairs with furniture and more women's clothes on the second floor. Now if only it was like the Care and Share back home where every month the third Friday is half-priced everything (crazy awesome).
Our nights have been spent visiting Askwith Media Library and powering through movies. This past week alone I have seen:
The Lives of Others
Downfall
Amelie
Life Is Beautiful
Beau Travail
Freaks and Geeks (tv series)
Food Inc.
Extract
Evil Dead II
Dead Snow
Dead Snow
Tokyo Zombie
Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans
Fantastic Mr. Fox
The Royal Tenenbaums
Funny People
Of course we are still watching all our favorite tv shows too:
Tuesday: LOST and Glee
Wednesday: Modern Family
Thursday: Community, Parks and Recreation (which Mike finally got into and admits is awesome, Kevin and Josh take note), The Office, and 30 Rock
Sunday: The Pacific
All the shows except Lost and Glee are ending this week, so it looks like more movies to come!
Your favorite,
Brian
