What’s really important

Friday, August 1, 2025

We were off to see Singin’ in the Rain by Artistry at the Bloomington Center for the Arts. Great show – their Gene Kelly was terrific!! What a dancer! What a singer! It’s on for a lot of the month – treat yourself!

The show was great, and the new bathrooms were wonderful. They have been under construction since February. We so enjoyed the red/green lights to let us know what was available. They are for everyone – which basically means men have to wait now too (which I actually question whether that could be a good idea) (maybe there is a urinal only bathroom. Does that seem like a thing? I didn’t look around. I think it seems like a thing. I should ask Keith. He is a man. He would know if it was a thing). Okay, now I am really thinking about this. The women’s bathroom was quite large and I never really had to wait there before. Let me think. I bet there were at least 10 stalls, maybe 12, for the women. How many are there now? I don’t know. I didn’t count, but maybe just 12…So how is all people sharing the same-ish number of stalls better? It is not. Isn’t the whole point of men not having a long line because they don’t need a stall? That is way weird to me (and all women, I think) on its own, but urinals.

Okay. I am just stopping. I have no information. I should gain information before talking about this.

The show was great.

Addition by Keith: There was a small room on the side with 5 or 6 urinals. The old men’s bathroom had three urinals and two stalls, so this is better for the men (not that it needed to be better–it was fine before).
