We’re having some of that four-letter word today.

No one seems to know whether it’ll be one inch or up to three, but it’s supposed to change to rain this evening so I hope it’s as little as possible because the rain (and then freezing temperatures) will make one HELL of a mess.

Sorry to hear about these bad nights of sleep. Mine was rocky at first but I finally settled into ... something or other. I don't remember my dream, but I'm pretty sure it was nothing particularly worth dredging up anyway. Yesterday morning's seemed worthy of recall, but it never came to me, even after bugging me all day. I'll have to write that one off as being lost to the mists.

I've got two bagels here, an everything and my occasional blueberry. I believe I'll start with the blueberry, as being more a breakfast thing. I'm really liking 'em toasted these days, so the only question is:  butter or cream cheese? Probably a slice each way.

I just saw a recipe for an appetizer: cheese sticks in the form of cookies. I'm not sure how I feel about this. I guess it would be slightly less work. But it seems wrong, somehow.

I don't eat Oreos, but if I did, I suppose I'd be excited about this:

But then the center won't be creamy.  I suppose this is for those that chew the cookie vs spitting it into two parts, outer and filling.


I have never spit on an Oreo.

Good Afternoon. I've been quite productive today on my day off.  Working on getting my orchestra together for Matilda, lesson plans for tomorrow - accompanied by "The Gilmore Girls" which I have been binging again for probably the 4th time.  To binge "The Gilmore Girls", it's quite the undertaking - 7 seasons of 20 episodes, all about 45 minutes each.  So many cameos in this series.  However, Kelly Bishop and Edward Hermann steal the show.  Tonight, sing through with the cast of Something Rotten, that will be fun.  Finding the music fun to play, yet I don't remember liking the show when I saw it.
