7:35am - One is snoring, one is showering, one is blogging. I'll let you guess. Kirchoff's Deli will open in approximately 3 and a half hours. Let's do this. (SS)
8am - Todd is up and sounds just like Super Dave Osborne. Oh and we're on Central time if you're confused. (SS)
9:40am - We can officially endorse the complimentary breakfast at Fairfield Inn Paducah. Calm before the storm. (SS)
10:27am - we mistimed our arrival at Maiden Alley (this Central Time thing is hard). So obviously, to kill the time we played a few spirited games of Candyland and Sorry. I lost them all. (Allen)
12:15pm - Kirchoff's... mission accomplished. We wait 362 days a year for this. A club for Al, pasta salad for me, and Sheene likes to switch it up.
1pm - About to watch the first film of the weekend: Revelation Road. It's a western horror movie about the undead. The trailer had a guy that looks like Robert Duvall. We're excited. (Allen)
3:12pm - We met John Gibson, director of the zombie western we just watched. Nice guy. I bought some homemade crackers from Kirchoff's bakery (a yearly necessity) and Todd had a love affair with a cinnamon roll. It was intense. These trips are seriously becoming more and more about food. Now we're set to watch Can't Stop Me Leavin', a Japanese short and then a documentary about adventure racing. (SS)
4:12pm - The Americans in this race are the worst. One of them is a professional "life enthusiast."
6:00pm - We have a break before the Paranormous block of short films start. You know what that means. Time to eat. Tonight's feast comes from The Station Burger Co. They fry bacon inside the patty. Uhhh yeah. AND they have TVs AND the UK basketball game just started so jam on it. (SS)
7:32pm - We're sitting in Maiden Alley Cinema right now, about seven minutes away from watching the Paranormous blu ray on this beautiful big screen. Fingers crossed.
9:30pm - I guess I should say it went well. Laughter! Always a relief. On to some good convo with filmmakers and new friends.
