A Movie And Dinner

To the big city (Manahawkin) in the morning to pick up printer ink at Staple's, something else at somewhere else, and some toys for Susan's kitties at Pet Smart.  At the last, I was treated incredibly rudely by the cashier.  Will not patronize that place again.
Called Joan B., of the Barnegat "Silver Liners" (you can be pretty sure that's not a club for teens) and we discussed my Dionne Quintuplet presentation.  I'll meet with her on January 9 and we set a date for the deed on the 30th.;  I have the Stafford Library scheuduled for February 7.
Got a few minor things done after, then ambled across the stree to Susan's and Walter's.  Latter drove and we went to see The Life of Pi.  I had thought it was about a Chinese boy in the eighth century.  Was just off a bit: It was about a present-day Indian boy.  Anyway, it was enthralling and the effects were wonderful beyond description.
After, in a steady rain, we had dinner at the Mystic Island Casino.  Sounds so exotic, but is just a neighborhood bar and restaurant.  Had a bourban hamburger and, following Walter's lead, a Molson Ice.  Incidentally, I'm comfortble going out with S. and W. because I insist on paying my own way.  I don't want to be somebody who is always treated. 
Skyped with Ellen when I got home.  Can't wait to see her on Wednesday!

Sent a welcome e-mail to my new tenants, mother and daughter, Laura and Prudence. I must remember to check to see if I need to send anything...
