el compadre includes my best friend amy adams

again, a blog about an oldie but a goodie. when i lived in l.a. often i would just go to el compadre's after church. you know, it's your typical mexican restaurant, or at least the kind i grew up with. big, red plastic booths, dimly lit with those yellow glass light fixtures. kitchy stuff on the walls. good rice- which is important. i always get two beef tacos, rice and beans. it's like my staple food. i have and will always love it. and now that i'm back in l.a.- i'd say i make it there about once a week, once every two weeks at the most.

so yesterday i'm having a nonchalant dinner with john and i'm chatting about some nonsense or another when in walks.....

amy adams.

gasp!

i love her. i love, love, love her. i was a bit star struck. i literally saw her for like 30 seconds, but i wanted to sit in those 30 seconds forever. she just looked so normal and nice and cute. i think i've seen every movie she's been in (not true, i didn't see doubt, cause yuck! content=yucky). but miss pettigrew for a day, sunshine cleaning, junebug, enchanted! oh i love her so much.

just look how pretty she is!

aw...

and i'm posting this picture because people said she looked fat. and she's not. she's gorgeous and lovely and healthy. totally normal. this is what she looked like at el compadre's (well in a little peach dress, not a bikini), but NORMAL.
