I had no idea about the Big Mac sauce, which I didn't buy - but I did buy the tartar sauce because the file o' fish tarter sauce is great - hopefully this will actually taste like that.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Continued Mega Health Vibes to our DR JRand66! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am very tired and very sore this morning. Can I go back to bed?
My test results from yesterday just arrived online. My too high blood sugar from the last tests dropped by 28 points. My doctor will be very pleased.
Things look pretty good. I'll be back next month.
Great news on the blood sugar, Elmore.

It was a nice surprise this morning.
Judith Jones has died. She will not likely be known by many because she was a book editor, largely known for helping Julia Child. But her big contribution was rescuing The Diary of Anne Frank from someone's reject pile.

Nope, didn't know the name, but talk about two remarkable achievements.
Cooking her beloved dog??

From DR George:QuoteWhew! Good thing that you didn't spend that much money on something that tasted like crap. ;D

Jane, for some reason, your quote of my quote was wonky. When I quoted it for this post, I was able to fix it so that everyone will now know what the heck you meant! ;)
My daily numbers have been pretty good, but I haven't had an A1C test at the doctor's, yet. It's been pretty carb heavy over the last several weeks, what with the show and certainly yesterday's barbecue. ::) We'll see what it's like when I finally am able to go in.
Some ass who is new in this building keeps dumping rotten food in the laundry room with the recyclable items. This is ridiculous. Today the room smells like rotting fish.

Are there multiple new people to the building? I thought it was just one and the super would know who it is.
What is the New York rule on recyclables? In San Antonio, it's okay to put dirty items in recycling. So, anyone at work who eats yogurt can put their container in the bin without rinsing. And I occasionally feel as if I'm going to vomit because of the stench of that nasty crap. But it's supposedly okay.

I have no idea. I rinse out every container before i put it into the trash.
I got plenty of sleep, nearly 10 hours, no more NYMF anxiety attacks, there's work on the desk to begin, so all is good at the moment.

The therapist did her best/worst on my leg today and the pain was a lot less than it has been. She hoisted that haunch off the table and pressed that foot into my back side. The first time I didn't even grab the table.
We have "single stream" (I think it's called?) recycling, in which all paper, plastic, and metal items go into one huge bin. You're supposed to have rinsed the bottles, etc., before throwing them in there, which we do. And even though I know we're not perfect at that, there's never been an odor. But any kind of actual food container that "could" be recycled but would be ridiculous to clean up, forget it, out it goes with the trash. I am not a complete saint, after all. :)
DR Jeanne, my mind is blown at the outrageous attitudes of your landlord or management company. One hardly knows where to begin. Their "management style" is disheartening and infuriating. And this all came about because of the 32-years-in-residence tenants and two stove burners? Is this for real? Do these people live in the same universe as the rest of us? How is it possible to hold one's good tenants in such contempt?
Do they own/manage a lot of other properties in town? How extensive is their empire?
One friend of mine has lived in the same rent stabilized apartment in Greenwich Village for many years, and her landlord is just awful toward her and the few other remaining "stabies" in the building.
I'm sure all leases these days give them a right of entry under certain circumstances, and in fact they probably have for years. I think I had them in my leases, but they were never EVER abused, and I never had landlords who were so blatantly antagonistic. Please do consult with a good tenant's attorney as to this particular situation.
I don't think it occurs to them how this comes across to the tenants. If I'd known at the start that they were going to do this, I would not have rented here. they really do act as if we have all the time in the world to wait for contractors to arrive and so on. I've had to say, "I have a really full week this week." When I say that they understand, but apparently they don't think of it on their own.

I am tired of cleaning peanut butter jars and don't always do so.

Maybe with gentle comments from you they will understand how this comes across, or at least leave you alone.
DR ELMORE my AC1 number was very good today.....the doctor is giving me three months and then may take me off my blood sugar medicine....

AHA! Not me! I have been the recipient of the PATENTED HHW vibes on several occasions, and they have never failed me!

Perfect example. I've quit trying to clean those.

This morning I tried to call two LA housing agencies, but couldn't get through to either one. Par for the course. They wouldn't be bureaucracies otherwise. I found a useful website, though, on California rental law. It does state that tenants are expected to keep the premises as clean and sanitary as possible. (That doesn't include clutter, right?) But that's a very gray area. I was chatting with a friend who has had many rentals. He said, "If they open your refrigerator, tell them, 'You're my landlord, not my mother!'"
Oh Ginny that is terrible. My deepest condolences to all
Best thing o' the day: Last night I sent Richard Sherman an e-mail with the lyric I wrote for a new song for Levi, in an act two scene that desperately needed a song - I used the last line of the scene as the title, as it was kind of perfect. Elizabeth didn't give it to him until five o'clock today. He called me at 5:45 and played the music he'd just written - and it's beautiful. He switched up the last four lines (which were kind of a coda - I did them in a certain style and he made it more like he and his brother would have done, which is fine by me), but just beautifully set the rest of my lyric. I knew I had to write it because I knew exactly what it needed to say and how it needed to say it in terms of the character singing it. So, Richard and I have written our second song.
The Washington Post reviewed McDonald's new sriracha and kale burger, which, I am sure, BK is aching to try:
It’s the fast-food equivalent of watching your father sport rompers and pledge his undying love for Drake. But the quarter-pounder jacked up on Sriracha Mac sauce doesn’t taste bad.
And lo and behold the skillet I wanted was on sale for $25 and they allowed the 25% off coupon to be used as well. Free pickup at the store right down the road from work ..I ended up getting 2 for just over the price of one

The wind has been blowing from the north for the last two days. It has brought all the smoke from the British Columbia forest fires down into Seattle and Tacoma.
She had wanted me to audition with her for MISERY, but now the rights have been withdrawn for the next twelve months.
I wonder if George is still out to dinner? I wonder where they went?
Do you have the smoke down there, too?
Have you watched DAMN YANKEES yet?
