Yesterday I spent most of my day - after a morning of housework - lying down, dozing, and watching junk TV. I tried to watch a movie by John Patrick Shanley, Wild Mountain Thyme, that failed to sustain my interest, although there were some lovely shots of Ireland, but I'm wary of a film in which a dead character narrates a story that tries to be romantic but ends up as twee fakelore.
Stick to the beautiful folksong, "Wild Mountain Thyme."
The notes were most excellent. I will say that every TIME I write DR ELMORE's name - the first time I type it comes out DR ELMROE.

A review by Publishers Weekly was a perfect example of why I try to avoid reading reviews prior to reading the book. It gave away part of the story that isn't mentioned until near the end of the book.

People is the work that always comes out poeple for me. And on the phone, it’s always tge, not the.

This is also why I never read reviews before reading a book (only look at ratings). I also never read the book blurb right before reading a book for the same reason.
DR Elmore posts for me re asses, liars, grifters, whores, and thieves. :)
This morning I had a tomato that had to be used, and two avocados which felt about ready. And a couple (see above) slices of some great bread. So I hatched a brilliant idea. I cut the tomato into thick slices, heated some olive oil in a pan, and put the tomato slices in. While side one was cooking over a low flame, I sprinkled liberally with dried herbs, granulated garlic, and salt & pepper. (I wanted some grated parmesan which we usually have, but we didn't this time.) I turned the tomatoes over and sprinkled side two, gave them a couple more minutes on the flame, and voila! - I had some form of grilled tomatoes on my plate. I then toasted the bread and mashed an avocado on it. I've never had actual avocado toast, but I suppose this served as a form of that, too. I laid the tomatoes on the slices of toast, and ate them. And OMG. Delicious.
Gas and a few essentials to eat are much cheaper there.
It's a much quicker read than my previous book, which was good, but even though PHM has a lot of science, it's easier to read.
That scene was my inspiration!
The ihop used to make the chicken crepe with chicken, avocado, mushrooms onions and hollandaise sauce , they change it to no avocado, added tomatoes and changed the hollandaise sauce to a cheddar cheese sauce
When I order it I have them make it the original way
Since the quote was spoken by the newsman opening the newscast, I would assume that any typos would have to have been made by me. I would appreciate it if you would point them out for me.
Injection vibes for DR JANE today.

I agree.
This also has me worried. Thatch, who usually sleeps on top of the cat tree and jumps up there and from there to my bed, is now hanging out on the lower level. I hope his heart is not wearing out already.
Well, today I start my new start time at work, so I'm off to bed...really.
Have a good day, all!
Weird work dreams. I had to create a new flow of work for the bank team and we ended up giving advice on recipes and the restaurant business in an Undercover Boss style. My friend Gail, who does not work at USAA or for a restaurant was best at it.
This CT scan request on Friday has upset my shaky equilibrium, and I had too many panic attacks over the past two days that there's other cancer beside the prostate situation.

Thank you. So far all as gone well. I was warned of symptoms that could pop up later today.

I chuckled that your dream involved recipes. So YOU!

Vibes for no side effects.
Glad you are OK, DR Jane.
Since I detest the parade of incompetent asses, liars, grifters, whores, and thieves that seem to be the majority of today's GOP and since they and their flakey supporters are responsible for the Covid and vaccine deniers, I think in a tit for tat situation they should be locked up in quarantine and forbidden any interaction with the vaccinated. These inhumane fools had no problems putting children in cages, any more than they have any problems with suppressing minorities and supporting Trump's Big Lie. I have no problems watching them rot.
Early Bird work vibes for DR GEORGE.

From George:QuoteIt's a much quicker read than my previous book, which was good, but even though PHM has a lot of science, it's easier to read.
I am also finding the science easy to read, just don't ask me to explain any of it ;)
DR George, I have read The Martian. Should I read it?

I find many excellent reviews on Goodreads, however, I recently saw the worst review I have ever seen. The review was fairly short, didn't mention much about the bulk of the book and THEN.... The reviewer completely gave away the end of the book.
This also has me worried. Thatch, who usually sleeps on top of the cat tree and jumps up there and from there to my bed, is now hanging out on the lower level. I hope his heart is not wearing out already.

For me it's George. It comes out Gorege or something like that.
~~~VOICE VIBES~~~ for bk for Wednesday!!!!!
I had to deal with AT&T. They’ve screwed with me again. How I hate that company. This time they’re charging me $200 to discontinue their TV service, which, due to an “upgrade,” no longer works.

I was thinking you had cut and pasted the quote from an article.
The costumes are now in the dressing rooms, so I shall go early to peruse them.
Our costume check is tomorrow night when we have less music to learn......and block.
Both of my nieces got their 2nd shots today. They could have gotten them 2 weeks ago. However they were advised that they would be more effective at 8 weeks.

What if theater rules were that only vaccinated people with proof of vaccination, get in? Wouldn’t that send a nice message to some people? Or do you think unvaccinated should get in if they’ve been tested with a negative result?
I had thought when we were told vaccinated people could remove their masks that this would be the requirement everywhere. It makes sense to me.

George, do you think your new hours will be permanent?

I don't know. ::) It won't be horrible, but I just don't want to lose that hour of sleep in the morning. ;)

Can you talk to your new supervisor about it?
In State government, Management always suspects that you are going to cheat them out of 40 hours a week.
