The crowds were thick. Only a handful were wearing masks.

I am so relieved to live in a state that requires masks.

Until Thanksgiving is past, I may have to go late at night.

I wouldn't like that.  We usually go mid day after the gym and it isn't too bad.

The three kids today are so used to wearing masks I had to ask them to take them off at the table so I could hear what they were saying.  It isn't a big deal to them to wear them.

The twelve year old did say that there was the one time while skiing she fell in the snow and her wet mask stuck to her face ;D

Yes, she was wearing it skiing as it was apparently a busy day on the slopes.

It had been way too long since we had seen the children, it was nice.

Sunday evening greetings!  We had our first snow of the season this morning, but it didn’t stick and eventually turned to rain.

Zoom  in thirty minutes or so.

So today, I ushered for a college production on Sarah Rule's Eurydice, that had several (non-college-going) friends.  It wasn't until I was taking a shower today that I remembered that my union was also having a Zoom union meeting. ::)

I chose to miss the union meeting anyway because I can get the information later, and as of last night when I signed up to usher, only one other person had signed up when they were asking for six ushers! :o

If you're asking about the union meeting, they don't record them, but they do take notes and keep minutes, so I'll be able to find out what happened. :)

I don't think any important decisions were being made today, so it's all good.

Now, I'm at Applebee's because I'm hungry and I have a couple of gift certificates. ;D

Starting a nifty noir called Act of Violence with Van Heflin, Robert Ryan and Janet Leigh. Fred Zinnemann directed.

Mary Astor just showed up as a drunken whore with an understanding ear. She was so good at that kind of role.

Well, Act of Violence is over. It wrapped up almost a little too tidy. I wanted the main character, who it could be said was cut from Republican cloth, to suffer a little more. But it was really hard-boiled in a juicy way for the most part.

On the same disc is another noir called Mystery Street with Ricardo Montalban and Elsa Lanchester. This one directed by John Surges.

We tried popping some corn tonight with coconut oil, and it worked great.
