The computer froze just before bed last night, so I was up an extra thirty minutes shutting it down and then starting it up and waiting for it to load everything.

[bk]

Some action already - so - 72%!

[John G.]

No on Elmore’s 42 years. I can only manage half that. I have been in my house 21 years.

[John G.]

Cake has been frosted. It’s in the fridge until later.

[John G.]

Listening to a comic novel called One Day I Shall Astonish the World. I’m finding a bit of depressing stuff in what it is supposed to be comical.

[John G.]

Paid $4.18 a gallon for gas today at Costco.

[John G.]

Think that since I made cake today, I will make a pie tomorrow. I’ve got peaches, raspberries and blueberries.

[George]

I lived all but a few early months of my life at 207 Fairmeade Road in Louisville. This was the house Mom sold last year. That’s my gray Honda in the driveway.

Very nice, John.

[George]

I'll try it this way.

That's a cute house, Jrand.

[George]

I was very sorry to learn about DR William Orr's loss.

So was I.  My condolences.

[George]

After much frustration with this computer today, Access-a-Ride was about 15 minutes late, but the driver was wonderful. I picked up my meds, and got my hair cut. The walk from the barber was brief, and I'm rather happy with all. It's the computer that's working my last nerve.

Very nice, Larry...except for the computer part.

[George]

No on Elmore’s 42 years. I can only manage half that. I have been in my house 21 years.

This October, I'll have been in my condo for 16 years.

[George]

When I was born (in Alabama ), my dad was in the army.  We lived in Alabama, Georgia, California, Texas, then Germany by the time I was 4 years old.  We then moved to Colorado when I was 7, then here to Washington when I was 10. 

[George]

Here's a picture of my parents' house that they've owned since 1976:

[George]

It's obviously an old picture from Google Maps because the red truck was my dad's and he got rid of it probably 15 years ago!

[George]

But the house is still that brown color.  There's a lot more plant life in the front of the yard on both sides than what's in this picture, too.

[George]

After living at home while going to Centralia Community College, I went to Western Washington University for three years and lived in on-campus housing for the first year and the first two quarters of the second year. 

[George]

That third quarter, a friend and I got an apartment just a couple of blocks from the College.  For my third year, I got my own studio apartment in downtown Bellingham.  After graduating, I moved back home with my parents.

[bk]

Back from an omelet, fooling around at the mall, a brief trip to Gelson's, where I got some lox, bagels, and cream cheese for later and for tomorrow. Now I'm home and I'll probably watch something. First, have to cool down the house. Tomorrow, I'll garage it and pull out a few more fun art items.

[George]

I finally got a job (in the same place where I'm still working today!) and moved out for the last time.  I got an apartment with a friend for a couple of years, then I got an apartment by myself for about 5 years.

[George]

Then, I lived with my sister and niece for about 5 years, then I got another solo apartment for a couple of years, then my sister built a new house and I rented her old house for a couple of years (part of that time with a housemate), then I bought my condo in 2006, from which I plan to NEVER leave.

[John G.]

Back from the grocery. It was madhouse in the way that Costco wasn't.

[John G.]

But I got some cat food and took it outside. Didn't see either of the cats.

[John G.]

I also found some plumbago plants on sale. I wanted to get a few more, so that was nice.

[John G.]

Time to finish La Fanciulla del West.

[KevinH]

Good afternoon!

[ChasSmith]

The deck is as clean as it’s going to be this time around, which is a huge improvement no matter how you cut it.

Looking forward to sitting out there later, grilling something, and just relaxing.

[ChasSmith]

Well, except for the fact that we’re under a severe thunderstorm watch from now till 9 pm. But it’s beautiful now, and topping off at around 84 degrees.

[DR Iris]

DR John G, I remember seeing the film Mr. Klein, but they used the French title, Monsieur Klein. Great film, very disturbing, in a Kafkaesque kind of way.

[DR Iris]

Have you seen the film Tell No One? Wonderful French thriller, based on the novel by Harlan Coben. I think you would like it very much.
