I love the late-night trio of jan, George, and TCB, which is also the name of my accountant firm.
Good morning from Athens!
I couldn't figure out how to turn on the TV (not that there are any English language channels other than BBC World and CNN International). I called the front desk. I was asked: "Did you push the red button at the top of the remote?" "Yes." "Push the number 1 instead." Oh, okay! That worked! Who would have known?
Vixmom, a friend of mine is a set constructor and dresser. He had done that kind of work in Connecticut theaters, then last year he began getting work on various TV shows filming in the NYC boroughs. He did well at it from the get go and quickly advanced. It’s hard work, and beyond that, I don’t know much about it, but he loves it. He’s also one of our good local directors and actors. Of course, none of this digression answers your question.
This is great sleeping weather. If I did not have two cats, I'd sleep the day away. I have so little work at the moment, I'd rather go to bed and stay there.
Patrol over, but today's litter cleanup was an ordeal, and I'm trying to analyze why it became such a problematic issue.
Birdy Barnum was taking a bath in his drinking water yesterday....so I put a small bowl of fresh water in his cage for him to frolic in. And frolic he did. And then of course gave him fresh drinking water.

Some days they just are, DR Elmore. Around here, no two days are all that alike.
I am the Master of the Litter in these here parts.
And the Master of the Litter knows whereof he speaks.
When we lived in Michigan I often went to Ohio. Toledo has the Museum of Art and other places of interest. There is Cedar Point. In Cleveland the Music Hall of Fame. And best of all os DR Ginny.

i have a question for John.. how does one become a professional food critic?
We ran into a quagmire in the new orchestra parts for How To Succeed . . . yesterday afternoon. My colleague works fast, and by 7:00 the corrections in Reeds 2 and 4 were made. I'm finding small fixes as I go over the parts, so that's good.
I wonder what DR Ginny will have to say about TCB'S Ohio comment, but then he did iinclude the beautiful state of Utah so it was obviously a joke..

Try having 4 cats ;)
My favorite egg sandwich is what I call the Alice, after the 1st floor neighbor who gave me the recipe: 2 slices of good grain bread, 2 eggs made into an omelet, ranch dressing, and lots of alfalfa sprouts.

LOL! When I was finishing grad school in Michigan and looking for a job, I said I'd go "anywhere but Ohio." But there were lots of opportunities here and I gladly joined Miami University for what turned out to be a perfect first job. My intention was to build my resume and stay 3-5 years, but my first job turned into an opportunity for promotion and, then, there was this guy...
So, almost 46 years later here I am!
Goodness, I am late arriving. George is (I think) already at work.
Hmm. I wonder if a book of half-assed recipes like that one would sell.

I am waiting to get my eyes examined.

Now, I shouldn't be held accountable for that comment. I was only agreeing with jan (that woman is a troublemaker).

Other than the alfalfa sprouts ( :P ), that sounds good.

Years ago, I thought of writing a book of Recipes For Your Pet Rock. However, after gravel, I was at a loss.
Of course, these are never good old memories for DR Jane, who wishes we would stop moving things around.

Half way through page three before noon on the Left Coast! My oh my!
I came across a photo of my college roommate in a production of a play called TWO CAN PLAY with Haley Mills. I tried to attach the photo to show BK, but it must have some copyright protection because I couldn't figure out how to do it.
We are finally getting some blue skies here in Tacoma. We have been fog bound and cloud bound until now.

That looks like a nice season DR GEORGE.....but a lot of WORK!

With a low calorie dressing?
Good luck with both the chili contest and your improved diet.

Also next season, they're going to do Noises Off (I played Tim Allgood back in the 1990s), Into The Woods, and Fun Home.

That's a better season than the theater where I usher. One-night non-union tours of Once, An American in Paris, Finding Neverland and Stomp. Yawn

I became one by applying for the job.And they said OK.

Didn't you have to provide some sort of foodie credentials?
Trying a new version of Capirotada with donuts. I hope this one works.

John, did the power problems screw up your clocks?
Got an ultrasound of my abdomen today, did a boatload of work, made it to the noon Lent service, loaded the dishwasher, got the laundry going and did a really strenuous dance class -- and I really feel as if I haven't accomplished anything today. Seriously.
I have watched parts of two Community Theatre productions of PICNIC on YouTube.
I am embarrassed for everyone involved in both shows....everything is wrong...no on can act....one is SLIGHTLY better....SLIGHTLY....
And of course there is the "dance" scene where they proceed to do The Twist in one of the shows.... The actors playing Hal in each production are beanpoles and should never remove their shirts in public.
It took me an hour to get on this site tonight.
