Yesterday's entry is up, sorry about the delay, but the ftp was down.

So I went to the Clearview on 34th and 2nd to see a mini-Jeremy Northam fest, The Winslow Boy and An Ideal Husband.

I gave my passes to the man at the box office and he said "You're cutting it a little close, aren't you?" and I answered "Yes, I have all these to get through before the 1st. I saw five movies yesterday and two on Friday. I'm exhausted!" He looked at me strangely and gave me my tickets.

Once inside, I went to the concession stand and asked for nachos and the guy told me "I have only one packet of cheese left! We're running out of everything 'cause we're closing on Tuesday." "What? Why?" "Kips Bay!"

And then I understood what they guy at the box office had meant. I was at Kips Bay on Saturday, which is a big fancy theatre practically across the street from the Clearview, but I don't know why that would kill this theatre, especially since they were playing completely different kinds of movies. But there were practically no customers, so I guess that that wasn't enough, and there I was, getting the last serving of nachos with cheese at the Clearview on 34th and 2nd.

"The nachos at Kips Bay," I remarked, "Cost seven dollars. If I'm paying seven dollars for nachos, they had better be served by a mariachi band!"

I'll continue this story tomorrow. The ftp made me think that perhaps it would still be down today so I started writing this a trifle late and I am helping Cynthia this morning by watching the kids while she has a morning interview, so I can't be late.

Today's horoscope:
Just when you're ready to settle down and settle in, something upsetting comes along. Don't sweat the small stuff!

One year ago today:
I know I made a similar observation a year ago or so, but if you haven't seen it, it's new to you!
