"Our" theater was virtually empty, but there had been long lines at the ticket counter when we arrived and there were still long lines when we left. <br /><br />I started walking over to the ticket taker and Rick asked me where I was going.

If I had a dollar for every time he said, “Did you know that person?” I’d be very wealthy today. Talking to strangers is always amusing, especially when I’m with someone who’s mortified by my extroverted behavior.<br /><br />BILL: “You could be talking to your future stalker, you know? Or an axe murderer.”<br /><br />ME: “Well, everyone’s gotta be something.”<br /><br />BILL: “You’re incorrigible.”<br /><br />*smile*Just Another Wannabehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09232549723209686348noreply@blogger.com
