Which means we can't get into the lot. You'd think the Pope was making an appearance. We don't buy any books, but by the time we get to Route 128, neither one of us is thrilled with the idea of the movies, so we drive down 128 to 93 and head back home. You'd think we spent a lot of time in any restaurant other than the four or so we frequent, what with all the discussion we have about it. The problem is that we're easily bored, but not terribly adventurous, so we just talk and talk and talk about where to eat.
Nothing ever appeals, and everything's just fine at the same time.
We finally decide to rent a video at Blockbuster and order pizza. We circle a rotary twice deciding if the cool little ice cream shop in Belmont would still be open after 10 p.m. and decide not to risk it. We head towards Friendly's instead, deciding to make a big loop which will include Blockbuster on the way back. So we have to go back to her place to get that. We decide to get the milkshakes first, then the I.D., then the video, then settle in with pizza.
