There weren't many stairs.

That was nice.

Once my over the shoulder bag got tangled on the outside of the rail I couldn't lift my roll on bag up another step without wrenching my shoulder.

Thank goodness for the young strong man behind me who carried my bag the rest of the way.

My bag didn't fit inside the stairs the way I was carrying it

In the comedy department, I watched The Prince and the Showgirl on it's new Blu and Ray.

Not that it was funny.

No, the comedy was that after about six minutes, I fell asleep, woke up once to marvel at how much the camera loved Marilyn Monroe and how gorgeous the color was, then woke up again to the menu screen. In other words...

I'll actually have to watch the movie.

bk · « **Reply #159 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:34:36 PM »

I don't really remember a thing about it from the DVD.

bk · « **Reply #160 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:34:45 PM »

Which I may never have watched.

bk · « **Reply #161 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:34:52 PM »

But the color.

bk · « **Reply #162 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:35:00 PM »

That gets a huge wow.

I wrote JohnG because I have never gotten past the paywall at WaPo. But this time I did.

bk · « **Reply #164 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:36:45 PM »

What?

bk · « **Reply #165 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:36:53 PM »

Did someone say something?

Jane is off on another trip.

bk · « **Reply #167 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:37:19 PM »

Rodzinski has returned from a trip.

bk · « **Reply #168 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:37:33 PM »

I, myself, had a trip today.

After uploading the new URL-less episode one and its new URL-less captions, Marshall and I went to the mail place and I picked up the little package and...

bk · « **Reply #170 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:38:36 PM »

Drum roll...

bk · « **Reply #171 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:38:46 PM »

The green envelope.

bk · « **Reply #172 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:39:22 PM »

As we were driving, thinking about going to Hugo's for lunch, Marshall said the most brilliant thing - "Is Barone's around here?"

bk · « **Reply #173 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:39:38 PM »

And that's where we went. I don't think I've been there in a year.

bk · « **Reply #174 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:39:46 PM »

Hard to believe.

bk · « **Reply #175 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:40:43 PM »

Marshall had the scampi, which I strongly recommended to him, while I had to have the spaghetti carbonara and a little salad - we split an order of their excellent garlicky garlic bread.

bk · « **Reply #176 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:41:07 PM »

I shared some of the salad so Marshall could marvel at the Eyetalian dressing.

bk · « **Reply #177 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:41:18 PM »

The garlicky garlic bread was great.

bk · « **Reply #178 on:** March 23, 2023, 08:41:34 PM »

He went batty over his scampi.

We haven't been out of the country since before covid.
