Steve and I went out for a date tonight. It was lovely to get out for the evening. Really lovely. Thank you.
We went to the movies and saw "Be Kind, Rewind". Not an Oscar contender, but not too painful either. I'd like to recommend it, but it doesn't end as satisfactorily as I would like it to...It sort of dribbles off the screen.
For those who are keeping track - 47 days to go. I wish I could have found a clip of Hugh Laurie (as Bertie Wooster) singing:
JEEVES & WOOSTER
47 GINGER HEADED SAILORS LYRICS
Now there's a good ship,H.M.S. Cock-Robin.
On her home trip,Up and down she's bobbin'
Oh the crew's pretty tough.
The sea is so rough.
They're all fed up and say
That they've had more than enough.
She's got a father
He's an able seaman
And they call him Redhead Tom
I wire to say I'll meet you
And with your friends I'll treat you
So who do you think I've had a message from?
Forty-seven ginger-headed sailors
Coming home across the briney sea
When the anchor's weighed
And the jouney's made
Yes they'll start the party
With a heave-ho, me-hearty
Forty-seven ginger-headed sailors
You can bet you're going to hear them when they hail us
An old maid down in Devon
Said my idea of heaven
Is forty-seven ginger-headed sailors!

My idea of heaven is along the short Mexican programmer line. (And I don't need 47.--But excellently obscure number reference for your count-down.)
I can tell 47 is going to be a favorite of mine.
I love watching movies, it's always a shame when they don't end up how "I" want them to end. I'm such a cliche; I want the couple to end up together, David to beat Goliath, or the bus to have enough gas (?1). I see so few movies in the theaters these days, I want my money's worth.
I hope you had a grea date night anyhow.
I think 47 will be one of my favorites, but I'm totally looking forward to smaller numbers.
Had a nice time last night. The movie didn't really suck - it just needed more of an ending.
