Five!

Starting to watch an oldie tonight, Green Dolphin Street, with Lana Turner, Van Heflin, Donna Reed, Frank Morgan, Edmund Gwen, Gladys Cooper and more. Costumes and highfalutin nonsense, but good nonetheless.

I mentioned some time ago that I had applied for Global Entry. I finally had an appointment set up for January in DC. It was cancelled , I guess because of the shutdown.. After the government reopened there were no appointments available in the near future. It dawned on me that I could make an appointment elsewhere so I checked the NYC location (U.S. Customs House, which is downtown). I was able to get an appointment for yesterday. It took about 5 minutes and now I have Global Entry and TSA Precheck.

That is super fast. We needed to do it in Portland and it wasn't fast. It was faster doing after returning home from Greenland without an appointment.

The reason for my trip was to see the 40th Anniversary benefit performance (for the Actors Fund) of "They're Playing Our Song." Original cast members Lucie Arnaz, Robert Klein and Debbie Gravitte along with Hugh Panaro and others. It was really great. Robert Klein used his script a lot of the time but was still hilarious and put his songs over well. And Lucie was terrific. The orchestra was great, with Larry Blank conducting. He was also with the original production.

Nice.

I would have loved to have seen that.

Me, too!

I'm finally home.

George · « **Reply #127 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:14:23 PM »

I've been home for a while, but I had to feed my cat and then get settled.

Today, I first went to my local Dollar Tree and got the diet cranberry juice that Jrand mentioned.

George · « **Reply #129 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:18:41 PM »

Then, I went to Taco Del Mar for lunch.

George · « **Reply #130 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:20:06 PM »

I got a mondito burrito with fish and it was, as usual, pretty darned good.

Good evening.

George · « **Reply #132 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:20:52 PM »

After that, I went right next door to Fred Meyer for a little shopping.

George · « **Reply #133 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:21:20 PM »

Hi, Tom.

George · « **Reply #134 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:22:15 PM »

While I was at Taco Del Mar, my friend Margo called and asked if I wanted to go to a movie at 7:00 p.m.

TCB · « **Reply #135 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:22:26 PM »

Happy Lincoln’s birthday!

TCB · « **Reply #136 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:23:27 PM »

I can’t believe I am the first person to mention that.

TCB · « **Reply #137 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:24:25 PM »

I am going stir crazy.

George · « **Reply #138 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:24:35 PM »

It turns out that tonight was a sneak peek preview of the new movie Alita: Battle Angel.

George · « **Reply #139 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:25:06 PM »

Tonight, it was only being shown in IMAX 3D.

George · « **Reply #140 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:25:49 PM »

It otherwise opens on Thursday.

TCB · « **Reply #141 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:25:49 PM »

There is still a foot of slush in the alley, and I couldn’t make it out my parking spot.

George · « **Reply #142 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:26:49 PM »

We both really enjoyed it...especially the special effects.

That's too bad. It was somewhat difficult (but not impossible) for me to get out of my place. Supposedly, my condo complex roads are going to be plowed tomorrow morning.

TCB · « **Reply #144 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:29:59 PM »

The hunky repairman for the apartments helped me dig me out, but if I had managed to get out of the alley, I would have had to park my car on the street.

TCB · « **Reply #145 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:30:45 PM »

If I did that, I couldn’t get back to my apartment.

TCB · « **Reply #146 on:** February 12, 2019, 11:31:12 PM »

So I am stuck.

Yikes! That would've been terrible!

And Nicky’s medicine was never delivered.
