jenny lewis and popelka

i meant to post last night, but i was so exhausted from gym, i almost fell asleep talking to Z. here is a mish mash of the happenings past and not so distant past.

so on sunday, amy crossed the hudson to visit ma hood. i took the day off and we basically just vegged out the morning into afternoon. we went back to the city to catch rilo kiley in concert at level 5. too bad like cinderella, i had to be home at a certain time before my nj transit bus turns into a gigantic pumpkin. i enjoyed half and hour of live rilo kiley though. jenny lewis is such a rockstar. we love her.

three wishes for cinderella

speaking of cinderella, i rented a czech cinderella film. it's an old movie, released in 1973. instead of a fairy godmother. popelka had the help of her pet owl rosie, and three magical hazelnuts to give her a fabulous hunting outfit, a gorgeous attire w/ the satin shoes for the ball and wedding dress. what i love about this version is popelka is a kick ass cinderella. she's some sort of tomboy who intrigued the prince because she was such an excellent marksman and a graceful equestrian.she's not this blushing, bumbling, giggly girl who was so stupid as to leave her shoe by the palace steps. if that was me... que horror! i will not leave my shoe alone... nevah!
