block the street party

Tonight, I laid in the street and watched Tron. I love that I can say that.

We brought the party to my friend's block party today as we brought over their sound system and hooked it up and DJ'ed for a bit with an i-phone. After dark, we brought out the projector and watched Tron in high resolution. It looked amazing and it's a lot of fun watching cars drive by a lot slower as they try to figure out what's going on.

It was fun chalking in the street too. I think that neighborhoods should block off their streets more often, especially during the summer weekends. It'd be great if the parents were able to open their front doors more often when they hear neighbors out and about and feel okay about their kid darting for the door or across the street.

Just another example of how cars fuck us up all over and about how we've accepted it. Anyway, it was nice that it happened for one day and it'd be nice to see it happen more often in more neighborhoods.
