I packed my gowns, tried and failed to get spray-tanned — after four months in an Off Broadway run of "Finian's Rainbow" I was not merely pale but computer-screen white, with bluish overtones — and took my husband and three young daughters, who had blessedly been invited.

But unlike the previous film, Dogman plays like a blessedly (albeit brutally) simple revenge fable, our hero's tenderness gradually tested by his loyalty to coke-fueled tyrant Simoncino, a man who busts a slot machine with his forehead before hounding his featherweight friend for a hit.

In the few weeks since the introduction of Stories, Instagram seems to be on the path to becoming a different kind of place — a network where you can experience the most intimate and endearing moments of your friends' and acquaintances' lives in an environment blessedly free of the news.

Eat A few stories above a blessedly calm Midtown street, the elevator doors opened and I stared straight at a Garuda — fearsome mythic eagle, mount of Lord Narayana, reflection of the divine power of the kings of Thailand — inlaid into the seal of the Royal Thai Consulate General.

But instead of discrediting anyone, their efforts to hijack social media with incredibly unsuccessful satire accounts belonging to fake women's-rights advocates not only quickly revealed a tragic disconnect between idea and execution, it also coincided with a much-needed discourse that's slowly yet blessedly been de-stigmatizing menstruation.

I would leave the car to try to sing in harmony with girls too rich to look me in the eye, and then, blessedly, I would return to laugh and talk with my sisters while my mother drove, only murmuring a disapproving "Girls … " when our laughter got too loud.

Two months ago, the Wilpons announced that they would sell a controlling interest in the Mets to Steven A. Cohen, a local oligarch of questionable ethics (he had sidestepped at least one indictment on financial misdoings but paid a $1.2 billion fine to the government) and blessedly deep pockets.

Thus, by the time I sat in Justice Kennedy's office in December 1994, I had already endured lengthy interviews with then-Ninth-Circuit judge Alex Kozinski and then-Assistant US Attorney Harry Litman, and I was hoping that the interview with the justice himself would be blessedly straightforward.

Writing in the New York Times, BuzzFeed reporter McKay Coppins argues that Trump's tribalist view of Christianity is of a piece with his nostalgic evocations of a white-dominated America, where both religious and ethnic minorities know their place: In the Gospel According to Trump, there is only one blessedly normal, all-American faith: mainline Protestant Christianity.

Blessedly, that makes it maybe the only part of the internet that doesn't make me think that the world is going down the toilet; that humanity maybe is capable of a collective emotion that isn't disgust or rage—even if that moment of shared connection is over a PlayStation that somebody won by total chance in a random giveaway.

Most of us have, by our twenties, blessedly forgotten the messed-up stuff that we did in our formative years, but rest assured, we have all done something unbelievably stupid and weird that seemed like a really good idea at the time, and often it was based on something we saw in a movie or video game.

But while Iranian cooks were riffling through bins of fuzzy green almonds, selecting blooming hyacinths and choosing smoked whitefish at Jordan Market — or just grabbing a bowl of herb-flecked ash-e reshteh (a bean-filled noodle soup) at nearby Attari Sandwich Shop — the line at the Saffron & Rose Persian ice cream shop was blessedly short.

There were takedowns of abusive men in Hollywood, breakdowns of great messages in movies to teach to tween girls, an impassioned plea for Sandra Oh to get a goddamned Oscar, and a beautiful examination of trash TV. All of it felt blessedly productive, because I didn't have to watch the Oscars (and money went to RAINN).

The rest of the evening was devoted to Metal Karaoke (capped off by a rousing rendition of "Ace of Spades" from Walter Roadburn, Orange Goblin's Ben Ward, and Primordial's Alan Averill), pints at the Little Devil, and the blessedly serendipitous discovery of pizza joint that was inexplicably open at 5AM and happy to cater to a bunch of tipsy weirdos.

In fact, with the exception of HBO's Eastbound and Down, which ran for four seasons from 238 to 22014—and CBS' awful, blessedly forgotten TV adaptation of The Bad News Bears, which ran for two seasons in 143 and 214—it's hard to think of a baseball series that's lasted on TV for longer than the proverbial cup of coffee.

Shortly after lunch there appeared a sheet cake from Kroger (blessedly this was before technology made possible icing made from a photograph of your face), a two-liter bottle of Coke and attendant plastic cups, and a regifted Montblanc fountain pen from the C.E.O. The conclusion I drew from this debacle wasn't any sort of "honesty is the best policy" claptrap but a different mantra: Never leave a job again.

The Mario and Sonic releases are sold on their cast of decades-long-known anthropomorphic avatars rather than their selection of events, and with fencing, table tennis and hammer throwing hardly rivaling the NFL for viewing figures, converting these sports into intuitive interactive games is something I think we'll now see an end to, outside of Nintendo's blessedly blinkered commitment to the cause (no doubt in some way informed by the company's continuing dedication to improving its players' "quality of life").

The Vixen's attempt to derail the story by picking a fight with Aquaria about a borrowed wig (it should be mentioned that, for a millennial, Aquaria seems surprisingly resistant to the sharing economy) was blessedly concluded by a Deus ex arachnia (A spider was discovered crawling on a dress, sending into a squealing fever all of the queens save for the strapping Kameron, who calmly captured it and, hopefully, released it outdoors, far from where it could hear any more fighting.) The heretofore under-heralded Dusty Ray Bottoms snatched the open kiki bottle and poured out the heartbreaking tale of her ostracism from her religious family.

In pursuing the day to day, extensive experience of planting and nurturing one's own food—the ultimate delayed gratification in a society where food is, blessedly, easily available—Gasol is showing us that he embraces the full spectrum of human experience, the quick rush of the roaring crowd as important as the slow, lurching pleasure of watching the tomato of your dreams turn from green to red, setting it in a pot, slowly cooking it until it gives up its form, CHILLING that concoction nearly overnight, and devouring the fruits of your patient labor alongside a glass of barrel-aged white rioja and perhaps a slice of delicious, slow-cured serrano ham.
