Well, you've read the notes, the notes returned and spoke of the return of the Hamburger Hamlet in the Oaks of Sherman, and now it is time for you to post until the Oaks of Sherman cows come home.

And the word of the day is: ALEATORY!

BK, had to look up the word of the day -- relating to luck and especially to bad luck.
Those words "bad luck" quickly brought back a memory from Hee Haw!

"Gloom, despair and agony on me-e!
Deep dark depression, excessive misery-y!
If it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all!
Gloom, despair and agony on me-e-e!"

I wonder if the Hamlet has the original patty melt, which I believe was served open face?  And the chili.  And the "mighty brunchburger" with the egg on it that I know BK wouldn't want, but I just wonder if it's making an appearance.  And the chocolate fudge cake thing.  And the apple pie that you could get with a rum sauce or melted cheese or both, and of course a la mode.

I'm not sure of the remainder of the day's events.

Sunday morning greetings!  Thank you for all the welcome home wishes last night.  DR TCB was right, I was very tired and crashed about 9:15.  Of course, that made me wake up about 6 and I've been dealing with some gastrointestinal distress all morning (TMI, I know).  It might be just a post-travel thing or a reaction to the communications mess I have to unravel for AAUW.  Either way, I think I'll stick pretty close to home today...

I'm still pondering my day. I had an email scare that my computer to spite me had reverted to its behavior before my Mac Man John solved my problems yesterday, but it turned out to be a needless fright. That was a big relief, but I'm still unhappy with the way the day is going.

I need something really good to happen.

Jack, thanks for the feedback. It helps to know others who have had good experiences.

WarbyParker offers a free five-day try-on, which I find quite attractive. I have a good idea of what will fit me and please me, but there's nothing like trying the frames on first. I'm thinking I'll try them for my reading glasses--a single-vision lens. Progressives are another story.

Jane why are you having such trouble bending down.? What did you do to your hip.

I'm not sure I did anything particular.  It is a recurring problem I've had for years.  The last time it was this bad Echo was still alive & I ended up in PT from grooming her on the floor everyday.  I'm sure I triggered it picking up acorns & leaves, but I did that last year throughout the fall and it never got this bad.

Today we went for a walk in the park and, to Keith's shock, I wanted to turn around before he did.  We then went out to lunch & I picked the restaurant with the most comfortable chairs with cushions.

Vixdad and the Vixter also wear glasses and also have difficult prescriptions - we  now pay less for all three of us than we used to for just one of us  and we have all been very satisfied with the glasses

We have blueberry picking down the roa and there are places within 45 minutes to pick peaches, pears & apples.  We have only gone blueberry picking a couple of time.

We picked pumpkins in Pennsylvania.

The apple orchard has really small trees, they were heavily weighted down by apples. It's a nice young couple that started it, but it's a long way from being a real orchard.  I really wanted apple cider, but they don't have anything but apple trees near their house.   It's not a big orchard, but it's so close to town I'm encouraging everyone to go there and in a few years it could be

Back from some lunch - once again the Hamburger Hamlet - ate too much, but boy was it all good.  To start I had the side of Those Potatoes (hash browns with sour cream and green onions), then the California Market Salad (smaller than before, but that's a good thing), and for dessert an oldie but goodie Hamlet tradition making its return - egg custard Lulu.  I've figured out almost all the songs for the next show.

And now, I must be off.  I'm going to my sister's and we're going to watch the latest Captain America movie.  She just got it from Netflix.

Until later. :)

Back from some lunch - once again the Hamburger Hamlet - ate too much, but boy was it all good.  To start I had the side of Those Potatoes (hash browns with sour cream and green onions), then the California Market Salad (smaller than before, but that's a good thing), and for dessert an oldie but goodie Hamlet tradition making its return - egg custard Lulu.  I've figured out almost all the songs for the next show.

Bruce did you mention the outdated website to them?  I've never had the custard.

DR JEANNE try for five days does sound like a good idea.

I have never had to return a pair, so I haven't really investigated their policy although  they a 100% money back guarantee if you are not satisfied.

Thanks.  Our local station can be slow getting shows.  At least we get them now.  Before, if we did get a show the quality was too poor to watch.

Jeanne  - are you a memeber of Costco?  We are very pleased with the specs we get there -    LendCrafters wanted over $600 for my  progressive lens eyeglasses -( I have astigmatism and a very strong prescription) - and that was AFTER  the 30% AAA discount -  I paid less than $200 for glasses at Costco and they are wonderful

Vixdad and the Vixter also wear glasses and also have difficult prescriptions - we  now pay less for all three of us than we used to for just one of us  and we have all been very satisfied with the glasses

I totally agree with DR Vixmom about Costco.  Have been using their optical services for over five years.  I wear glasses with no lower frame surrounding the lenses.  I thought I would have to get a new pair of glasses when the wire (surrounding the lens) broke.  They replaced the wire right on the spot -- at no charge.   I was shocked and thrilled!  Also when ordering glasses, if you have insurance -- they usually reimburse 100 percent of the cost -- depending upon your frame selection.

The Youth Orchestra of San Antonio was performing in the larger theater and I was able to sneak in to see their version of Peer and the Wolf, which was well played and enormously entertaining. They closed out with a tango from Astor Piazzolla complete with youth chorus.

What I would give for cool air -- probably around November!

Today it was 105 degrees.  I live right in the middle of the California drought -- the San Joaquin Valley.  So far, I believe we've had over 40 days with 100 degrees or more.   8)

I've had the best luck with Hotwire and Priceline -- name your own prices.  I first do research on the going rate.  If that fails, I use Enterprise with a discount code from -- http://www.couponcabin.com/ or http://www.couponmountain.com/ -- however, the latter is updating their website.  And last, but not least, I use my local AAA -- always have discounts and coupons.

And the week is over.  Big Fish had a great opening and Sunday matinee.  Callbacks for A Christmas Carol were short and sweet this evening.  After doing the show for 9 years, it's easy just to put people in roles they've played before or that we know they'd be good at. 

I'm home now and DD doesn't know how to act since I am home in the evening!!!

It's the pits! 

Makes me think of a dive I used to go near Northridge (West of the 405) -- the Bear Pit.  Great food, saw dust on the floor.

I love the internet -- the Son took the business over and moved near the junction of the 405 & 118 freeways.  Will need to check it out!

Thanks so much FJL.   Tonight I threw another possibility into the mix, it's something I've been thinking about for a while,   I could move back to my home town. My brother is looking for someone to join his practice and there is a lot of work for lawyers in that part of the state.  I didn't know what he would think about me going back. He thinks it would be great. I love my house and my office, so there's a good chance I won't do it, and it wouldn't be before winter but I  have never felt like I have family here and I really don't have family here.  If I was there I could be with mom and dad, spend time with my brother and sister in law and be there as Sam's boys grow up.  I wouldn't have to choose what to do on holidays etc.  It's something to think about
