I had the opposite experience from the one MR BK had.  I decided to watch a L O N G movie that I had never seen.....

Nicholas & Alexandra.

It looked nice - but the writing and the acting were awful.  I remember all of the praise Janet Suzman kept getting at the time for her performance - but.....no.....she acts is though she is on The Guiding Light.....or As The World Turns.....

I kind of liked Tom DR WHO Baker who played Rasputin.....but his part was also written badly.

I did read one review that sort of sums it up for me:  "This film has more history than it knows what to do with."

I saw the movie when it first hit the theatres and I agree completely. I did like Richard Rodney Bennett's score, but I couldn't wait for those Romanovs to get shot.

So guess what I did last night.

I THREW UP!!! Following right on the heels of DR George's story.

I'd been asleep for an hour or more, and woke with a very slight but annoying belly ache. I soon recognized it as a warning that I should visit the necessary. Sure enough, I did there what we usually do there, but with a bit more than usual urgency, and returned to bed. But all was not right. I still felt the little ache and now I was in a clammy sweat. I laid (lay?) there for a moment doing what we often do, which is try to deny what needed to be done next. But I knew better, and I returned to the scene of the crime. It didn't take much urging, and woopsy -- there it was. I just sat there on the floor for a bit to make damned sure I was done. I knew from long ago experiences that a bad case of this results in repeated visits, like what happened with George. But I felt a certain peace with it and went back to bed, feeling hopeful. And I lucked out. That was all I needed to do, I was back to sleep in fairly short order, and when I got out of bed - gingerly - this morning, everything felt normal. Whew!  The End.

Yuck! Feel better.

I did, too, and I have almost no memory of it. I bought the Blu-ray in support of Twilight Time back in the day, but have never watched it. I'll do so now, to at least enjoy that score.

I, too, want to try Red Robin.

We had one right here in the local mall, but it left before I ever got around to it, damn them. I'll try the one in Poughkeepsie next time I'm up there picking my feet.

Oh, my goodness!  You were lucky...only needing to throw up once.

Everything is now put away. All three cats had a fine time playing in the paper bags as I emptied them. They romped, zoomed, and chased each other so excessively (ERKS - Excessive Romping Kitty Syndrome) that I needed to drag out the Dustbuster and vacuum the floor.

Apparently there’s some Sondheim in Welcome to Chippendales, including Andrew Rannells singing Someone Is Waiting.

Found out this morning that the man who hired me at USAA died on Friday. Am a little in shock.
