We went to Paris, Texas, where Chrissie went to high school. I saw her old house, and we ate mexican food at the restaurant across the road. I bought cowboy boots from a place next to there, and they are super fantastic. They are plain black with black stitching and have a total cowboy heel and pointy r toe, or j toe or whatever pointy up toe thing, and have a little silver bit on the toe and the heel. Chrissie says I am not allowed to buy spurs because I would hurt myself. And look stupid. I am more worried about the looking stupid part of it. But my boots are pretty wonderful. I will for sure buy more cowboy boots. I cannot walk in them for shit yet though, because they are so tight and stiff, and the heel is so odd. I'm fine on most surfaces, but when I try to walk quietly on the wooden part of the floor here, it is the loudest thing ever.
We went to see 'Where the Wild things are' and it was totally amazing! I loved it so much. It made me want to cry at the end, and then I was on the verge of tears the whole drive home, Chrissie asked me if my mother used to read it to me and I said probably and lots of tears fell out. I miss my mum. I sent her an e-mail telling her that she should go to see it. I think it will end in Australia soon, so I looked up session times and told her when she could go. I didn't think I'd be able to see it at the movies here, because it came on ages ago, but then it started at the cheap movies, so we saw it for $1.50 for both of us. I love that cinema so much.
There were lots of kids in the cinema, but they all went totally quiet during the movie. I love it when movies don't patronize kids.
When we were waiting in line to buy tickets, I heard a child in front of me in line ask her mom, 'how does he ake his hair blue', and the mother said, 'ask him', and then the girl asked me 'How do you make your hair blue?' and I said, 'with textas', and everyone looked confused, and I said to Chrissie, 'that's not a word her is it. What is it?' and Chrissie told me it was markers. Everyone was extrememely confused. That poor child. Her native curiosity was met with oddness.
