That's too bad about the food mix-up, BK.  That's happened to me too a few times over the years.  The only times that I've gone back were when I was still fairly close to the place, and I also absolutely wouldn't eat the food that they gave me.  I hate it when that happens. :P

The 9/11 memorials are already taking up the local news channels, and I'm in a rather sad mood, mourning not just a tragic day in the city I love but also deceased friends and family I love, not one of whom died on 9/11.

I have no plans for today beyond some bills and shuffling things about my worktable. I've been thinking about another book - surprisingly not about Annabelle and Thatch - and I need to begin expanding my idea and shaping the plot.

Thatch is under the weather. He did not eat dinner and he just passed on breakfast after vomiting twice this morning. I hope this is nothing serious.

We've had those periods where a cat doesn't eat and he/she throws up until there's nothing left to throw up, and a few hours later (or by next morning) it passes.

Feel better, Thatch!

Post by: elmore3003 on September 11, 2021, 06:10:59 AM
I finished cleaning the litter and walked out of the bathroom. Thatch was waiting patiently for some kibble while Stella hogged the dish. I guess he's feeling better.

I worry about him because of his bad heart, and every time he shows signs of feeling poorly, it frightens me.

I've had fast food mix-ups but I can't think of any in particular to relate.

This was Popeye's, right? We have, over the past year, brought home a number of Popeye's orders, and they have indeed left things out or substituted something or what not. Sometimes they'll say "oh we were out of that so we gave you [whatever] instead", but that's after we've called them on it or gone through the line again. Why doesn't that notification happen while they're preparing the order? Huh? I ask you.

I made the bed just as the memorial service began, so I lay down, Annabelle climbed onto my lap, Thatch curled up next to me, and I watched the reading of the names through B. I'll take the garbage down, then come back and watch some more.

This isn't a food mix-up, but I so miss the days - this was around 1989-1991 - when Domino's Pizza had the deal where if a delivery didn't arrive in 30 minutes, it was free. Because I lived right in the sweet spot just far enough away from the jernt where that happened a few times, and they were true to their word and the driver would say, "here you go, it's free". I'd always tip big for that and everyone was happy.

Much as I love Richard Rodgers, I've never cared for the show or the score. I'd suggest Ernest in Love or a revue like Jacques Brel , that Harry Chapin revue, or  Starting Here, Starting Now.

During the show I got an email with my updated requests. I finally got Stacy Abrams. I had been about 17th in line to get to usher for her.

DR TCB asked:
Is she doing her nightclub act?

Singing, dancing and getting out the vote. Well, okay, the last one. And a lot about the return of Jim Crow laws, like Texas’s. The national tour is actually the first that the Tobin is sponsoring and they’re kicking off here.

I think the worst food mixups are when I ask to leave something off and they don’t do it. I stopped going to Panera because they refused to sell me a salad that hadn’t been tossed in one of their icky sweet dressings. At least they refunded my money.

Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis Jr. have released an album of Lennon-McCartney songs. I always liked the Fifth Dimension, so I was looking forward to this. I’m halfway through. It’s somewhat strange, but her voice now sounds a lot like his. It will take a couple of listens to appreciate it more fully. I did like their version of Ticket to Ride.

Vibes for T-Hatch.

Thanks for all the comments and vibes.....after tonight's performance we will have TWO days off.

My uncle called and his laptop had a crazy screen and we couldn't do anything.  So Monday I will take it to the computer place and see if they can fix it.

No need to spend more than $75 or so - it only cost $250 new and that was two years ago.

I've been reading a way-too-thorough biography of writer Sally Benson, whose Meet Me on St Louis is based on her family. Sally is the youngest, Tootie. She also wrote the libretto for the Broadway show Seventeen, and Oscar Hammerstein's book for The King & I owes more to Benson's screenplay for Anna and the King of Siam than it does to the novel it claims to be based on.

Wrath of Man isn't as great as some of the reviews I read. But I liked one line that said Jason Statham's character was someone who tried smiling a few times in the '90s and decided it wasn't for him.

I have no plans for today beyond some bills and shuffling things about my worktable. I've been thinking about another book - surprisingly not about Annabelle and Thatch - and I need to begin expanding my idea and shaping the plot.


I hope it is your much anticipated memoir.  With all the sex and violence and the saucy details of your affairs…. well, you will be wealthy enough to buy that building where you are living and then double certain people’s rent!

At long last, page five. Now, get me off this damn page.

So now someone is suggesting Two By Two. Is it done much these days? This is for a 100-seat house and there would only be room for a piano/bass/drums combo.


Well, to be blunt, there would probably be more animals on the boat; than there will be butts in seats.

I like the idea of a revue, and I'd be interested in any of those titles. But I checked with them and they don't want one this time around; just a regular old "show".

Baby was mentioned.

Baby is a good one.  Would you do the original version, or the updated version with the lesbian couple?

I recorded one that I have no idea what I thought I was doing.  It was THE LONG ISLAND MEDIUM (which instead I typed as MADAM), 9/11 REMEMBRANCES.

That's great!  I hope you enjoy it!

The UK ex-military guy who started the Nowzad Charity to reunite soldiers with their dogs, and recently made it out of Afghanistan with said dogs, plus more, just made a very exciting announcement.

ALL OF HIS STAFF AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE NOW SAFELY OUT OF AFGHANISTAN!

I never thought he could do it. 

WOW!

Wonderful news!! :D

It was rather interesting.  She nailed some things spot on, but then she had almost 3,000 souls she could pick from.

I went to Taco Bell today, too. :) I had a couple of their new Crispy Chicken Sandwich Tacos (https://www.tacobell.com/food/specialties/crispy-chicken-sandwich-taco).  They weren't too bad.

I was out most of the day at my sister's, helping with her daughter's chicken coop. :P

Then, I went to Taco Bell and finished reading Sondheim's Finishing the Hat, his first book of lyrics.

Bernard Herrmann's Sinfonietta for Strings has a lot of the Psycho score in it - I mean note for note.

According to the show's IMDb trivia section (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0412175/trivia/?ref_=tt_trv_trv):

The show was inspired by the real-life "psychic" Allison DuBois.
