Today was my birthday. Sixty five and looking for seniors rates where ever they may exist. Hank and I made a day of it. We had a little bit of stuff to do downtown so after that we went for breakfast at Cookies. It was already lunch but they serve all day brekky and I had been craving pancakes all week. The place was hopping and we had ourselves a bit of a wait. Then we went to visit his mom where we had a nice, albeit short, visit.  A little trolling in a few thrift stores and then home. Tonight we went to see "The Most Exotic Marigold Hotel" in the cheap theater. Now I know why I don't want to go there to see movies.  Considering the place really isn't that old, it really looks like it needs a complete redo. We sat in the last row, thinking we could move if we had to. The place almost filled. Only 3 people under the age of 50 and I'm sure most were over the age of 60. No place for your drinks and the seats really do need recovering. Paint off the walls and cement floors. The last row was lower than the row ahead of us. I have no idea how they managed that.  I did love the movie. My date even sprang for popcorn and pop. He's such a sweetie. A movie just isn't the same without the staples of the convection counter. A chocolate bar would have been nice but I had to settle for a chocolate covered energy bar that he brought from home. He took it out of his pocket of his shirt and the chocolate had melted all over. Oh well, beggars can't be choosers. I took a picture of Peeka, our Himalayan cat.It was suppose to be taken 'from a high angle'  and she really didn't want to cooperate. I did the best I could to get her to look up. She has the most beautiful blue eyes. Tomorrow my subject is 'from a low angle'.  So remember, "Everything will be all right in the end... if it's not all right then it's not the end." Until tomorrow.
