I have had tough week with reasons that I will not get into. It made me wonder if I could remember anything positive about this religion when I was growing up. The only few "happy" memories I can come up with were going to the Leimert Theater. It was so beautiful. It's an old theater in Los Angeles that was built, I believe, by Howard Hughs. The ceiling was painted with murals and as a little girl I would just stare up there and get lost in my imagination. The snack bar would serve hot pastrami sandwhiches, which we never got. Our family had to stand in line and eat in the dining room that was added later. The food was pretty bad. The roast beef was always tough but you had better eat it or you would get in trouble. I think I still have some in my teeth. HAHA . The witnesses sold it and I think it is a cultural theater, could be wrong.
We also went to the Valley Music Center. That place was neat. The stage moved and again to a young girl this was cool. All the ladies restrooms were wallpapered and had a different theme. There must have been five or six restrooms and I made sure I used all of them!!! They also served soft serve ice cream. Not the best memories, but hey. Feeling nostalgic today. I just aged myself, huh?
