So now I have to drive out for another curb-service pickup -- an external hard drive I ordered through Best Buy is in. And tomorrow morning will be my third, when I return to Cat Clinic for the second half of Poe's large food order.

The new normal.

I’m too exhausted to focus on much today. That said, I’ve gotten a lot of work done.

That sounds nice.  I could go out and sit on our little back patio.  I don't want the dogs to see me & think they will get treats.  I decided I should stop carrying them for now :(

If I had an hour, I could finish the last 30 pages of Edith Wharton’s The Children. I think this one would have been better as a novella. It feels awfully padded.

And it’s also kinda creepy from our perspective since the young heroine is 15 and the man who falls for her is 37.

Our postman now appears to be leaving everyone's mail in a heap on the floor in front of the postboxes,  It's a complete mess.  I just sorted through it all and retrieved my package and mail.

The most dreaded part of the day has arrived: the Fat Orange Moron's daily update.  He can't read a teleprompter, can't make sense, and cannot complete a sentence.  I feel as though I'm watching a brain-damaged sports coach trying to rev up a group of recalcitrant children.

I should have remembered it was Edith Wharton. No happy endings.

In case you were wondering....I made it through about 45 minutes of the WB Have The Honor To Present the Max Reinhardt version of A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare adapted by Charles Henyon and Mary C. McCall, Jr.

After every speech of Dick Powell and James Cagney, I wanted to say "Burma Shave..."

We only lasted about 15 minutes

DR vixmom, I knew you were a paralegal, but I just assumed because you were in and out of Manhattan with closings that you worked for a real estate company.  Are you going in today?

Nope I’ve been in Lender representation all these years.  So we’re the ones preparing the loan documents and handing out the loan proceeds

LOL DR JOHN G - maybe if I think of it as a plus, it will help.

I am waiting for DR CHAS SMITH to finish watching Nashville before I post a particular comment.

Did DR VIXMOM find a copy?

I have not.  The library is closed and I haven’t looked on Amazon yet

Two years ago, a bunch of us were in New York for some Cole Porter.

That was such a fantastic day!

As I watched the characters and marveled at the actors themselves, I thought of three or four more seminal 1970s films that I'm amazed didn't occur to me the other day.

But that kind of thing is about what you're thinking of at the time, and shouldn't be an effort to replicate an encyclopedia. However, that having been said, how in the #%!*$ did I manage to leave out DELIVERANCE?  :)

Another film I have not seen
