Downton Abbey Screening Party at Crest Theatre
I am so excited that the premiere of Downton Abbey Season 4 is showing in advance next month at the Crest. One of my favorite places to see concerts and movies is at the Crest Theatre in downtown Sacramento. Downton Abbey Season 4 is officially premiering on January 5th on Masterpiece at 9 PM on KVIE Public Television, but a few lucky people in Sacramento will get to see the first hour absolutely free. Yes, tickets are free! You don’t even have to be Michelle Obama to see it. How about that?
There will be a costume party and trivia. My husband was considering coming as Matthew, maybe carrying a steering wheel. Doors open at 6:00 and presentation starts at 7 PM. Over at 9 at PM. The Crest Theatre is located at 10th and K Streets in downtown Sacramento.
All you have to do is go to the Crest Theatre online and click on RSVP Today to Reserve Your Seat. I picked up four seats as my husband was driving me to the dentist to get four teeth yanked out. Spotted it as it came across my cellphone because I subscribe to new events at the Crest. Reserved the seats and transferred the QR codes to my Passport.
If you haven’t signed up for new events at the Crest, you should do so, because you get advance notice and can sometimes buy tickets before they even go on sale to the public. How do you think I manage to snag my front-and-center row seats for all of the shows we attend?
Oh, and here is a little bonus for you. After you finish watching Downton Abbey Season 4, you can go to this link and watch the recap. I’m telling you it is so hilarious it will make you laugh out loud like a guinea pig: If Downton Abbey Took Place on Facebook Season 3, Episode 7.
My two valuable Elizabeth Weintraub team members, Barbara Dow and Linda Swanson are coming with my husband and me. If you are not addicted to Downton Abbey, consider yourself fortunate, I guess, because some of us would do anything to get to see Downton Abbey. OK, maybe not anything. I would not eat raw termites. Since I have a couple of pest inspections to review today for several sellers, I’d rather not think about munching on termites.
Elizabeth Weintraub and Led Zeppelin Do Facebook With Downton Abbey
Admitting outloud in public that I don’t much like Facebook is like the day I tore my Led Zeppelin album off the turntable in the middle of a party and spun it like a Frisbee into the street. All of my party guests stopped flicking the Bic to light whatever they were smoking and stared at me with dropped jaws. Their gazes traveled from the opened front door to my defiant face and back. They were astonished.
That was a sacrilegious act. But you know what? There are only so many times that a reasonable person can listen to Stairway to Heaven before her mind begins to decay. And for crying out loud, it was my album. I tried pleading with my guests to play something else but nobody was listening. You would have thought I was begging for the Bee Gees when I really wanted to jam to Janis Joplin. But the only way to get Janis Joplin on the turntable was to get rid of Led Zeppelin. So, out the door with it. Imagine the guy driving down Balboa Boulevard on the Newport Beach Peninsula who suddenly spots a 33 LP spinning toward his windshield. See, we just didn’t think back then.
That was BF, before Facebook. With Facebook, you really don’t ever have to think again. You just click. I have all these people on my personal page, and I don’t know where they came from or who they are, so I’ve stopped accepting new friends. Because these people are not my friends. How can they be a friend if I don’t know them? Even some of the people I call my friends whom I do know I don’t particularly like. Yet, I have all of these people on my page, and they all submit crap that I can click through if I’m completely bored.
I started a business page on Facebook, too. Because I was told that I had to do it if I wanted to stay socially relevant. After trying to upload a few photos and making a mess out of it, I have given up. Just leave me to uploading photographs of homes I list in Sacramento to MLS and other websites such as Zillow and Trulia and let me be content with that. Let me blog. Let me write for About.com about homebuying. Let me send my new listings and my personal blog to Facebook for you. Let me send a Tweet every day to Twitter.com. You want to chat with me, you can pick up the phone or send me an email or a text message. I am simply unwilling to communicate with you through Facebook. If that’s blasphemous to you, I have no regrets. You can go listen to Barry Manilow. You should go “like” the Facebook page for Led Zeppelin.
That’s what you get from a Sacramento real estate agent who would throw away Led Zeppelin. However, there is one exception. That’s when some clever soul creates a Facebook parody, and it’s so accurate that you can’t stop laughing. If you have been glued to Season 3 of Downton Abbey, I suggest you check out this website If Downton Abbey Took Place on Facebook. You can thank me later.
