gwynnega: (coffee poisoninjest)
Here's an encouraging article about the Coffee Table, which says that the owner is looking to open a new restaurant in Silver Lake. Here's hoping it's walking distance from my apartment like the (soon to be closed) Coffee Table!

Last night I happened to catch Peter Weir's early film The Plumber--a psychological horror film about an already terrifying topic, bathroom plumbing!--on TCM. I hadn't seen it since sometime in the eighties, and I didn't remember much about it aside from the fact that I'd loved it--but when I saw it, I found I remembered it so clearly, I must've seen it several times. I'd forgotten how funny it is. The film is basically a battle of wills between an academic and the plumber who invades her home--and it gets into very interesting territory around sex and class. Creepy and hilarious.

Wow, I wish my back would stop hurting already.
