i'm very hungry now as well. not cranky though. but it's time for my daily call to the commissary i like to ask what the salad selection is. i call every single day (when i work at disney) to ask what the salad selection is, in the hopes of it being the SouthWestern Caesar Salad (swcs). they have it about once every ten - fourteen days, so i try to call every day bc if you miss it you have to wait 2 weeks. the sad thing - it was the salad the very 1st time i went to that commissary so i was so psyched, i figured i could eat it every single day. then the next day they had a greek salad. then the next day they had a chinese chicken salad, and so on and so forth. so now i call ebvery day. the woman who works in catering must hate it when i get an assignment at disney bc all of a sudden, after weeks or months of silence, i start calling every single day to ask about the salad selection. at one point i could tell she was getting really annoyed w/ me so she stopped picking up her phone. i called more insistently, and would even call the number they had listed under 'catering emergencies'. she started picking up the regular phone again after i did that a few times. (also, she informed me that this was definitely _not_ a catering emergency). i ask every once in a while why the salads aren't listed on the internet, in the hopes that she will grow frustrated w/ my calls and begin putting them on the internet, but they don't/can't bc they make the salad that morning. oh, i don't call for about a week after they have it and i have eaten it, bc i know it won't be coming up again. i used to work close enough to walk over and check on the comm, but now i am too far and if i went for nothing it would be a shame/waste, bc it would mean i would _have_ to eat somethign at the comm, even tho i wouldn't want to, and could have done so much closer in my own building.

i saw _the nightmare before christmas_ a couple of nights ago ... in 3D!!! it was at the el capitan theater, which is only a couple of blocks from our apt. we walked down to get there for the movie at 915 (normally if i'm going to see a movie at night i prefer to see the latest possible showing of the day, but the 11pm showing was a singalong, and i didn't want superfans to ruin the 3D effects w/ their flailing and voices). but when we got there, at the beginning there was a guy on stage playing the organ, and it sounded pretty amazing. and the theater has thick red velvety curtains, and the organist was wearing a black cape w/ some strange design on the back in shiny black, not sequins, something else. anyway, it seemed like entertainment from a distant future, or another planet. it was pretty amazing. the movie looked good although some of it wasn't as great as other 3D films bc it wasn't originally intended to be gratuitously 3D so it didn't have lots of things flying at the camera, but it did look like it was some strange claymation happening in front of us. i hope they have the 3D film fest again soon. a good time was had by all.
