I was supposed to be late, but previews were inexplicably fifteen minutes long today and I even had time to go to the restroom before the movie started. I saw Abduction at 1:40PM starring Taylor Lautner and then snuck into 50/50 at 3:30PM (Anna Kendrick is such a babe) and Killer Elite at 5:10PM.
I spotted my old chief of staff, Jeremy, from Mann Theater. I guess the rumors were true that Mann Theater was going out of business, thus his now working for AMC. I had to sneak past him as he would've easily recognized me and noticed that I had been there the whole day with a bag full of food.
Outside, there was some event called "A Taste of Downtown Burbank" that crowded the street. Some girl collecting donations for starving children in Asia - I've avoided them before - wouldn't leave me alone after recognizing I was Filipino and then tried to speak to me in Tagalog. Like a bad ass, I didn't shake her hand when she offered. Like a bad ass, I gave her a dollar to go away. But she was very thankful.
At the mall down the street, the [Harry]Potterhead was working at Hot Topic. (Again, not the one that I frequent in my usual stomping grounds.) The last time I saw her, I was with the ones code-named "Choir Boy" and "G," (see entry 9/17/11) but steered clear as I didn't want to risk them embarrassing me. (For example, "Hey, he stares at you!") I went to the restroom to fix myself before walking inside Hot Topic. We technically spoke ... as she told me what sales were going on, which in my mind was basically, "blah, blah, blah," as I stared deeply into her eyes and renewed her in my database.
