The other day I went out with Lou and a friend of hers, Luke. We went downtown and had pizza at a bar called Rio Rita. The pizza was sold by the slice and were pretty elaborate in their toppings. It was pretty good. Then we went to a shop called Lucky Lizard. It is a shop of oddities with a museum in the back full of the B-movie-esque knickknacks. It wasn't as cool as I thought it would be and I felt bad that Lou paid for us to enter the museum part of the store. But it was an Austin experience.
We went to the Dr. Seuss art gallery display which ended up being more interesting than I expected. I took some photos of the works I liked the most and was surprised that I could have even afforded some if I wanted to use all my money. That is until I found out by talking to Lou and Luke who are both artists, that they were all prints though limited. They also explained that the gallery seemed to focus on framing so most of the price of the pieces were based on just the frame alone. Crazy stuff.
Then we went to get some raspas as Luke called them. Us English speakers know them as snow cones. Then Lou's car wouldn't start and we had to find someone to give us a jump. It didn't take as long as I thought it would have. Though by the time we got home and hung out at my place for a while, we were hungry again. So we went to get some dim sum at Get Some Dim Sum. It was fairly good, if not expensive but Luke footed the bill as I had bought our pizzas and Lou our accept to the museum, some for the snocones, and most of the driving.
