Good morning, all.

I'm sitting here mulling over the last wisp of what seemed to be a very interesting dream in which I invented an interesting geographical setting but can't for the life of me figure out what the "thing" or activity was to have been when it started.

Good morning, all! I slept in after two mornings of getting up at 6:00, and it was nice to do so. I'll work on the ROBERTA notes, hope I hear from the Kern attorney although I suspect he will be away until next Monday. This is the third day our elevator has been out, and it's starting to piss me off: I cannot get to the laundry room or cart down the garbage, and i really do not like walking down stairs; up stairs is bad enough, but walking down puts too much painful pressure on my ankles.

Today, sports injuries/back specialist Dr Vong at 1:00. Quelle thrill!

Had our get-together and read-through of AVENUE Q last night.  They hadn't planned on singing, partly because a rehearsal was going on upstairs and we couldn't be too loud, but once we sat down and opened up scripts, it seemed ludicrous to not do it all, so do it all we did, however roughly.  And quietly.  The cast is great.  Should be a good show.

THAT DAMNED ELEVATOR!

(That's the title of my upcoming hilarious sitcom based on a real life apartment building in Manhattan.)

One of our loonier tenants moved, and there's been a crew renovating the apartment, carting new appliances in and carting the old out on the only elevator in this building.  I suspect they've been the cause of the damage, but i'd think the repairmen would have been here by now so the blasted renovations can continue. That apartment will probably go for $1800/month, if not more, and I cannot imagine the landlord doesnr' want that $20,000 a year!

We watched GRUDGE MATCH with DeNiro and Stallone last night.

It was okay; sort of a catch 22.

Having ROCKY Meet RAGING BULL 30 years later makes a great "log line," but the producers, writer and director could never really decide if this film was going to be a comedy or a drama, and that resulted in a sometimes entertaining mess.  The actors were fun, though.

Yes, DR Singdaw, it's kind of like HGTV-land here.  And it'll probably be that way off and on for the next couple of weeks.

I took a short break to go to the bank to add my signature and the new treasurer's to the AAUW account and to pick up Scotch for Mom.  Richard's about finished with the second coat on the walls, so I'll have lunch and get back to work on the trim.

oh yes -- no pasta , that includes egg noodles, for either of them

Vixdad shuns both mashed and baked potatoes  but will eat rice and stuffing , although the Vixter will not touch either

and then Vixter shuns any cheese but mozzarella

is it any surprise that my  cooking skills have seriously deteriorated since living with these two?

You have my sympathy.

Bob Hastings of 'McHale's Navy" has died.

As has Don Matheson of LAND OF THE GIANTS. :(

I did publicity for Deanna Lund, his ex-wife, while that show was on.

And these are very funny...Here Are The Most Absurdly Hilarious Moments In Closed Captioned History. #6… WHAT? LOL!

My favorite just might be the sound of the tennis ball during the game.

Due to actors who mumbled and music that is blasted louder than voices, Keith often turns on the captions.  He then often leaves them on for me with my declining hearing.  Often the captions are a few beats behind the voices-very annoying.  Silly are all the little background sounds that you can't hear anyway, even with excellent hearing.

I wish there was a words only caption for folks like me that can hear everything but the words.

A lot of DVDs and Blu-rays now have two different English subtitles:  one for just the English language which only subtitles the script for foreign language speakers, and another that's English for the Hard of Hearing, which includes subtitles for the sounds.

THAT DAMNED ELEVATOR!

(That's the title of my upcoming hilarious sitcom based on a real life apartment building in Manhattan.)
One of our loonier tenants moved, and there's been a crew renovating the apartment, carting new appliances in and carting the old out on the only elevator in this building.  I suspect they've been the cause of the damage, but i'd think the repairmen would have been here by now so the blasted renovations can continue. That apartment will probably go for $1800/month, if not more, and I cannot imagine the landlord doesnr' want that $20,000 a year!


$1,800.00 a month?  How much just for the fire escape?

Yes, DR Singdaw, it's kind of like HGTV-land here.  And it'll probably be that way off and on for the next couple of weeks.

I took a short break to go to the bank to add my signature and the new treasurer's to the AAUW account and to pick up Scotch for Mom.  Richard's about finished with the second coat on the walls, so I'll have lunch and get back to work on the trim.

I'll take it to her tomorrow, DR TCB, after I shop for her and for us at the deli/butcher shop near her home.  I'll go there after I have my hair cut and styled in the afternoon.  The wall we're painting in the morning is much simpler than today's and I'm looking forward to letting Tina pamper me a bit.
