Topic of the Day:  not a particular fan of horror movies, but I really did enjoy The Shining with Jack Nicholson and Shelley Duvall.  I know I've seen some others, but I can't think of which ones.

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.

Well, today's going to be a day.  I'm both ushering and working concessions downtown.  For the ushering, from 2:00 - 4:15, it's just crowd control for the Washington Center's open house for Olympia's Spring Arts Walk, then from 4:15 until the movie starts, I'll be working concessions.  The movie is Frozen II Sing Along.  I'm picking up Margo so we only have to take one car, but finding a parking spot will be the issue.  It's going to be a madhouse!

The new car comes with a free 90-day trial subscription to Sirius XM. I'm interested in checking out the Broadway Channel with Seth Rudetsky's show, and of course the Metropolitan Opera Channel.

Revenge may be a dish best served cold, but so is cold sesame noodles. I wish I had some right now.

I guess the television series Twin Peaks isn't horror, exactly, but I did enjoy that.

I slept rather well. It's still too chilly to suit me, and I hope I'm not saying that three months from now.

Amazon Fresh, to my complete surprise, arrived at 6:20am. Lately, they've been arriving at the end of the time period requested, and I got sick of waiting untul 9:45 for a delivery between 8:00 and 10:00. So, I started to requewst the 6-8 spot, figuring an arrival sometime between 7:30 amd 8:00. Well, not today.

I seem to be in a minority: I saw the national tour of Godspell in Cincinnati, 1972, and loved it. What was fresh 51 years ago may now be stale, but I found that production funny, silly, whimsical, and ultimately moving. I remember little about it now beyond the wonderful onstage band and the fence that comprised most of the set.

That reminds me of a joke which I really can't share in mixed company.

When I was younger, I loved horror films. They scared the hell out of me, gave me sleepless nights, and I preferred them to most other film genres. These days, I'm terrified to watch them alone.
