Last time I was in a Thrifty's was...oh lordy...mid-late 1980s? And I have no recollection of what they charged per scoop then. But I can tell you it was "nothing". And I do mean nothing. Meaning, absolutely nothing that you'd even think about, or take note of.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

Oh.  I guess someone already thought of that.

That's...interesting.  He's very good.

Are you certain that is a "he" and not a tranny? That little curl on the side of the head and the plucked eyebrows are awfully precious.

It doesn't matter what he/she/they is/are.  The person really knows how to play the Theramin.

Tomorrow I'm working a 12-hour shift and then have just enough time (I hope) to catch an Uber to choir rehearsal.

I found something that said it went up to 35 cents in 1991.

There is a Ghirardelli shop near hotel.  Today I purchased a few mini candies from there and a fun keychain.

With that in mind, I'm starting to watch Pig. Nicholas Cage is really good.

Pig is not the movie I thought it was going to be. And it's quite wonderful.
