It got quite cold last night, and sometime after 2:00 Annabelle crawled under the blankets with me. I slept rather well, but I had a lot of strange dreams, of which I only remember fragments. One wasabout a bus trip that took a different route than usual. I remember more of one which seemed to be in some sort of lab, with bodies floating in tanks..

When we're in these sub-whatever temperatures I leave the thermostat at basically the regular daytime level, and this time I felt a little too warm on waking up.

It was supposed to go down to 5, and today's high was to be 20.

Checking on current predictions, we might actually get up to 23 or 24. That's kind of exciting, isn't it? Then back down to under 10 degrees tonight. The weekend will be warmer, though, with highs of 31 and 32 or thereabouts. Which is:  Freezing.

Did I say "excitement"?  HEY!  I live in the little, teensy-weensy town of Johnston SC in Edgefield County, and I take my fun where I can get it!

Of course, the "people of note" are people I have heard of.

Like music, I have that which I remember and that which I ignore.  Most of those are decade-relative.

I do not, for instance, distinguish between Christina Aguilera and any others of her ilk.  They are all processed sound to me. Similarly, while I recognize Justin Bieber and Nick Jonas, their vocal abilities are moot for me.  All processed sound with nothing distinctive about any of them.

I must confess that I am completely in the dark when entertainment news comes up with stories about people of whom I have never heard and/or of whom I can work up zero interest.

That includes the Kardashians en masse.

Home from another hellish og! Around 11:10 or so, I called to ask about the car, which I had requested for 11:30. I was told he was at 23rd and Park Avenue and should be there in 20 minutes. Around 11:35 I called, and I was told he was at 88th Street and should be there soon. He arrived at 11:50, and I got to Lenox Hill around 12:05 or so. The radiation treatments were running late, so I wasn't o\n the table until 1:15 - usually this happens around 12:50 - which meant my 1:30 ride home was screwed. I was dressed and in the hospital lobby by 1:45, and I checked my phone. My 1:23 ride had shown up early, around 1:10!

So, I called Access-a-Ride, explained the mess, and a car arrived around 10 minutes later. The driver was great, and he listened to classical music, whch calmed me down and made me really happy.

Friday evening greetings!  Today I made something for tomorrow's dinner that we haven't had in a long time.  The Cincinnati Bengals have a playoff game, so we wanted something fun and easy.  I made what my mother called "Stuffed Sandwiches:"  Mix a block of grated sharp cheddar cheese, chopped black olives, and a bottle of chili sauce.  Stuff that mixture into 8 hot dog buns and wrap by pairs in aluminum foil.  Chill overnight, then bake (wrapped) in a 375o oven until the cheese is melty (maybe 20-25 minutes).  We'll have those tomorrow around halftime with potato chips and baby carrots.

Oh, yes, It's about 25 miles away.  Even though it's convenient to Walmart, The Fresh Market and Sam's Club, I have no need to visit any of those right now, and my appointment was just to go over my labs, so the telecon was the ticket.

It started a half-hour late. Then it featured a half-hour video of someone who is a high-ranking Rwandan official who spoke English very poorly, but it didn't matter. What I heard was pure propaganda and not worth listening to.

None of the panelists had much to say, except that life in Rwanda is great. They're eliminating poverty. They have a responsible government. Everything is rosie except for covid.

They ran a half-hour over time, and they threatened not to take questions from the audience.

Well, they did take a couple of questions, but they didn't like the questions. It seems a few people there wanted to know about the current treatment of Paul Rusesbagina, the hero of "Hotel Rwanda" who is being held without access to legal representation.

The Most Honorable Ambassador blathered on for about 10 minutes without saying anything except that she didn't know anything and it wasn't really anybody's business.

Then things got weird when an audience member said he was a professor and his classes had been spied on by Rwandan spies. The ambassador tried to embarrass him, but she only managed to make everyone including herself look bad.

Friday evening greetings!  Today I made something for tomorrow's dinner that we haven't had in a long time.  The Cincinnati Bengals have a playoff game, so we wanted something fun and easy.  I made what my mother called "Stuffed Sandwiches:"  Mix a block of grated sharp cheddar cheese, chopped black olives, and a bottle of chili sauce.  Stuff that mixture into 8 hot dog buns and wrap by pairs in aluminum foil.  Chill overnight, then bake (wrapped) in a 375o oven until the cheese is melty (maybe 20-25 minutes).  We'll have those tomorrow around halftime with potato chips and baby carrots.



How big a block of cheese?  A pound block?  And what exactly is chili sauce?  I would love to try these sandwiches.

Watched the second PBS program from Westport Country Playhouse - a cabaret program with Shoshana Bean. It was quite good.

She's from Olympia, Washington!  I never knew of her until she moved out and made it big, but a former co-worker used to know her mother. :)

To answer your question, DR JohnG,  I ordered the new "I Can Get It For You Wholesale" CD.


I didn’t even like the old recording.

The sandwiches kind of taste like pizza.  It IS a very weird-sounding combination, but it's always been a family favorite.

I'd eat it.

So would I!

When I go to Subway, I frequently get a Spicy Italian sub, but I get it with all pepperoni (and no salami) and shredded mozzarella for the cheese, and then have them add the sauce from their meatballs.
