Ted: Okay, I’m going to say something out loud that I’ve been doing a pretty good job of not saying out loud lately. What you and Tony have, what I thought for a second you and I had, what I know that Marshall and Lily have, I want that. I do. I keep waiting for it to happen. I’m waiting for it to happen and I guess I’m just tired of waiting. And that is all I’m going to say on that subject.

Stella: You know how I talked my way out of a speeding ticket? I was heading upstate with my parents, I was doing 90 on the country roads. I got pulled over. So this cop, gets out of his car, swaggers over and he says, ‘Lady, I’ve been waiting for you all day.’ And I said, ‘Sorry Officer, I got here as fast as I could.’

Ted: For real?

Stella: No, it’s just a joke. [pause] I know that you’re tired of waiting. And you may have to wait a little while more but, she’s on her way, Ted. And she’s getting here as fast as she can.

from How I Met Your Mother

It’s that time of the year again. Last year I overdosed on galas and stargazing, watching films that would have eventually hit the mainstream theatre circuit anyway. The only one I was really glad I went to was The Wrestler (Evan Rachel Wood is yummy, even though she was there with Marilyn Manson). This year I’m trying to look for films that I wouldn’t have access to otherwise. So far I’ve gotten tickets to Soul Kitchen and Symbol. If anyone is interested in seeing/suggesting any other films, do let me know!

I have to say, ordering single tickets this year has been a breeze so far. Last year I had to line up for up to an hour to pick up tickets I had already bought online. This year, I got to skip the line (which was about half a block long), and was in and out of there in less than 5 minutes.
