I think I'm ready for that last one. It's been more than two years since I've entered a darkened auditorium, slunk down into my seat and let the world slip away.
By now there will be a new protocol: tickets purchased in advance, assigned seats; that was already happening but has become more regimented, I imagine. Masks will be required. Perhaps the concession stands will be closed. No popcorn? That would be a hard one to swallow, but not a deal-breaker.
It's Oscar season. Omicron is waning. Whatever the lay of this new land, I'm willing to travel it.
