fauxkloreI had a fairly busy day today. I needed to go to Trader Joe’s since I used the last of my vitamin tablets this morning. (TJ’s is the only place around here that sells chewable multivitamins that aren’t gummies.) I leveraged off that errand to see the movie Rental Family. Wednesday is senior citizen discount day, with $7 tickets all day. I knew very little about the movie beforehand, but found it quite enjoyable. The essential story has to do with an American actor in Japan (played by Brendan Fraser) who takes a job playing stand-in roles for strangers, e.g. acting as the groom at a wedding for a bride whose actual relationship is with another woman. It’s very funny at times, but it also raises interesting questions about the ethics of this business.
The evening involved a committee meeting for the Women’s Storytelling Festival, which will be in March. I stepped up to be the volunteer coordinator again, a job I did a couple of times, but had stepped back from the past two years. Expect to hear some shameless self-promotion over the next few months.
