according to plan

Yesterday's wedding anniversary pretty much went according to plan. Relaxation and reading were experienced. We went out for dinner, where we exchanged gifts - meaning that I handed to Sue the present I had bought that she was then to give me, and she handed to me the present she had bought that I was then to give her. My presents to her were two "Perry Mason" DVD sets. She gave me the BluRay of "The Wrath of Khan". After dinner, we went to an ice cream parlor, then to the theater. The first 105 minutes of "Sherlock Holmes" had us checking our watch, but the last 45 minutes made up for it, starting with the homage to "Two Mules for Sister Sara", later followed by Stephen Fry in the nude - a sight that is not for the faint of heart.

So wrote "Wild Cards" co-creator Melinda Snodgrass to me today.
