Sadly, lighting at Poster House made it impossible for me to capture good images of the posters on display without getting reflections from the glass that covers these pictures and protects them from damage. The above photo was taken of one of the few posters for which I didn't get reflective distortions when taking it.

Yesterday, it was cool enough that I wore a denim jacket to RQS's place. Today, it was just warm enough to leave the jacket at RQS's place.
But first....
We woke up a little later than planned, and I had my usual GI-Tract issue at the worst possible time. Instead of leaving for Poster House at 11:30 am, we didn't get out of the house until noon. To make things worse, we missed the bus and had to walk to the subway and climb the stairs to the platform. Once on the train, we had to make a transfer at Myrtle-Wykoff to take the 14th street line into Manhattan. Instead of taking the advice of the MTA app which recommended that we get off at 6th and 23rd, RQS figured we should go to 8th and 23rd. By the time we made it to Poster House, it was a little after 1:30 pm. At this point, I needed to cool down, as the wig I was wearing was keeping me way too warm for comfort. So, we didn't start exploring the museum until 2:00 pm.
After an hour of exploration, we went to a sandwich shop to have a late lunch and chat. We had a great time until they decided to close the shop around 4:30 pm. So, we packed ourselves up and proceeded home for the night. I was exhausted from all the walking we had done, and passed out from almost 3 miles of walking added to a touch of dehydration caused by not having a cold water bottle with me.
I was glad that I was able to present as Marian today. On a day like this, it was nice to be able to wear a comfortable dress, as many women were doing today. I didn't stand out, and was treated as the woman I appeared to be.
