I’m really enjoying listening to the first of the Poldark novels, Ross Poldark. There was a brief description of the marriage of two minor characters, but one detail stood out: The minister had black fingernails because, before the service, he had been busy planting his onions.

JRand, they’re doing Annie Junior here this summer, in case you want to visit.

I am listening to my new CD of TDAFOTEWASTTEOCP* and it is a pure delight. I have the original LP (I think it's original, should go check to see if it's worth keeping now) but haven't heard it in years. I'm so happy that BK is reissuing these albums. What's more, for me, the best is yet to come because I don't recall how little or how much of the other ones I listened to back in the day.

Wait. I can offer him two (2) ANNIEs that are less than an hour apart, in my neck of the woods.

Can anyone top that one?

No. I think we understand it all too well. I can’t speak for ChasSmith, but I blame mine on a sadistic streak.

There is also a documentary "Marlene" by Maximillian Schell about her. She agreed to be interviewed, but not to be photographed.

They don't specifically mention me (actually, at all

), but this is pretty cool:

Thursday morning greetings!

I took Annabelle to the basement when I went down to drop off an empty carton of litter. The exterminator and crew were there and all the usually locked doors were open. She led me a merry chase while I chased her through too many dark rooms and the crew waited on me. They were patient and kind; Annabelle was bad.

Do you have time to talk on the phone while she's busy telling Thatch all about her adventure?

Actually, Annabelle was so pissed off at me and the exterminating crew for spoiling her exploration that she isn't talking to me or Thatch today. She's been lying in the door to the bathroom enjoying the AC breezes while Thatch is cozying up to me for some deli turkey.

DR Elmore, I read once that when seeking an agent you should look at books similar to the one you want to write. Check the acknowledgments to see if those authors mention their agents and contact them.

Richard and I spent a nice afternoon at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, primarily to see 2 current special exhibits - Heavenly Bodies and Paris to Provence. Both were very interesting and we had a pleasant lunch at one of the cafes overlooking Central Park.

AHA! The morning mail brought lovely cards from DR GINNY & RICHARD and from former DR MBARNUM.

That took a long time - I mailed it on Saturday!
