I spent 90% of the weekend in bed, and I hope it helped.  I still feel like going back to bed, but I must run errands today, so I will be out and about

Annabelle is in much better health than I at the moment, so that trip to the vet was necessary.  I do not believe the additional $100 worth of medications was.

A dangerous TOD for the likes of moi.
Just a summary list of, um, lists:

Books and a few magazines
Records, CDs
Laserdiscs, DVDs, Blu-rays
Musical scores of various types
Concert & theater programs, roadshow movie programs
Commodore computer and related books & ephemera
Some mid-century US regional & travel books & various kitschy ephemera
Probably one or two things I'm forgetting

Much of the above are "accumulations" as opposed to formal "collections", but each has its own sub-categories that are indeed collections in the "Must Have The Entire Set" sense. I'm also not a Hoarder in today's generally accepted sense, but I know that the more I can rid myself of, the more meaningful and manageable the "collections" will become. It's a difficult process, no question, (so, in that sense I'm hoarding), but I was able to do some of this in a big way several years ago, and there's more to come.

DR George, thank you.  The article and app for quiet restaurants is very interesting to me.  I too get tired of leaning forward all the time.

George, it is a shame that article is not mandatory reading.

I agree.  I didn't know the sound levels were harmful.

TOD:

 Books & records & cds......although I am not the buyer I used to be.

I have several film photos and some autographed photos....several movie posters and pressbooks.

Nothing really rare or collectible.....I suppose the most valuable of my collection would be my inscribed Frances Farmer photograph and letter, a couple of notes handwritten by Allison Hayes, and my first edition ATLAS SHRUGGED.......

I'm glad she lived 91 years, but that doesn't immediately lessen the shock and the feeling of loss of such a giant (for lack of a better word) in our beloved art form.

This, while we still mourn the loss of a Nick Redman, the inspiration for the very topic of today, who's taken from the world at an obscenely premature age.

It's all the same lousy news when you come right down to it.

Actually, I read an article once, that said if you think you are a hoarder, then you probably aren’t one.  True hoarders can never recognize it in themselves.  Instead you are probably just lazy.

I recognize i’m both lazy and a hoarder.

Here’s Jo Sullivan and Robert Weede at their finest. It doesn’t get much better than this, IMO.

I do have a few autographs out there, the most special to me are the ones from favorite songwriters. On Saturday, I took my Cole Porter autograph in to be framed. I have two weeks to find the right home for it.

The Streets of New York CD has arrived! (It got here on Saturday, and I'm just now going through my mail from then. Oy!)

Can't wait to hear this for the first time -- which will most likely be later in the week, given my schedule over the next couple of days.

Monday afternoon greetings!  Richard and I were outta here at 6:30am for his second cervical epidural at our local hospital.  It took him a while to wake up and we went to breakfast on the way home.  He’s zonked out again and I probably will be, too, before long.
