The gym was nearly empty this morning, including the parking lot, actual gym, locker room and pool. It felt like I had missed a memo.
While swimming today, I came up with a couple of different ideas for the pocketbook I cut out the pieces for yesterday. I may not implement them all but I definitely think one or two will make it from my swimming mind to the actual bag.
I'm trying to decide now if I want to go to the movies in an hour or start sewing and go to the movies this afternoon or just blow off the movies. Heady stuff. I should have wrapped up the pocketbook design and noodled on the big movie decision for part of my swim.
And that's really all the news here. Everything is cool and fine and dandy.

I went to the movies!
Oct. 23rd, 2015 03:35 pmThe Cinerama is a single screen movie theater downtown just like in the olden days. I first went to a movie there in the early 90's two renovations ago (one in 1999 and one in 2004). The latest upgrade really did a good job. You can pick your seat and buy your ticket ahead of time. Totally worth the $1.50 surcharge.
The snack bar had the only minus and a big plus. It's stocked with all manner of delights but... They serve a lot of chocolate and the whole lobby smells of it. I kind of thought I'd have a special pretzel but when I hit that chocolate smell, all I wanted to do was get out of there. I like chocolate but not that much.
The seat I picked was perfect. And the seats were amazing. I hate regular movie theaters because most are dirty and sticky and the seats are just painful to sit in for 2 hours. These seats were exceedingly comfortable. And when the movie was over, I got up and walked easily. No hip pain or any other discomfort.
The movie? It was somewhere on the spectrum between ok and pretty good. I really really really loved the book. The movie just mostly seemed noisy. Although it was interesting to look at. It was 3D which was interesting.
I think, if another movie I want to see comes to that theater, I might go again. But, I think generally, the movies they show are not on my list of things to see.
It was a fabulous day to be out and about. A bit of a nip in the air. And my fitness band, for the second day in a row, is just happy happy.
