Jun. 30th, 2019 10:48 pmScott and Cordelia caught the train home without problems, but there were a lot of delays, so they got back three hours after the scheduled arrival time. Scott had parked over near the station, so they could just head straight for the car whenever they got in. I wasn't trying to meet them at the station.
I'd hoped that the train would be on time because then we could have gone out for lunch, but I was in the middle of my medication related afternoon fast when they got home. Also, it was late enough that I wouldn't have dared to order much beyond pancakes.
Scott and Cordelia both slept a considerable chunk of the afternoon because they got to bed late and had to get up around 5 a.m. to be sure of getting to the train home.
They both say that they enjoyed the show. They were less happy about the dinner beforehand because our SIL made reservations at the sort of place where the cheapest entree is $26 and the cheapest appetizer/salad is at least $15. They both got the cheapest entree available. Scott had to send his back because it included unadvertised bacon that would have made him exceedingly sick (they'd definitely have missed their train). The restaurant remade the dish, and he didn't get sick afterwards, so they must have done it carefully.
I finished Killing Eve season 2 in plenty of time to return it today. Scott and I still have some library Blu-rays to get through. I think I'm going to avoid getting Blu-rays as much as possible from here on out because setting up the captioning for the player requires 8-12 extra clicks. I can handle 2-4 without agony, but that many is hard. I think I could do it if I had something that would hold the remote for me, but nothing we have in the living room is at the right height to let me set the remote down and just push buttons.
