The cousin I am closest to sent me three emails yesterday. She must be in her early 70s now. A retired teacher, she lives alone in a small house in the country. I;ve tried for some time to get her to sell the property and move into town, but she's very reluctant to do that.

So, two of her emails were about decorating all of the family graves for Memorial Day. My dad in the 1990s made a deal with her: he gave her a nice sum of money and asked her to use it to decorate the graves on Memorial Day. Now that she's nearly as old as I, with a bad hip and walking issues, this Memorial Day really took it out of her.  My jerk brother Macbeth has been pestering her for the money he claims she owes him for her grave sight.

Woodside Cemetery, where most of my family is interred, will not sell odd-numbered plots, so when my cousin's mother died, she was buried next to her husband, but the cemetery would not sell a third plot for my cousin. When my dad learned this, he decided to buy burial plots for all the family: him, my mother, me, my siblings, all my living cousins, so we would all be buried in one locale. My brother Macbeth is now claiming he paid for all of these plots, but the truth is, I suspect my dad's construction company paid for them.

Since the Macbeths, when my brother took over the company from my father, have always treated the company's bank account as their personal account - something I tried to squelch when my dad died in 2007 -  I suspect he's now trying to gouge money from my cousins. He's a real shit.

Her third email was quite depressing: she's come to the realization that she mo longer has a large family to fall back on, and that she's essentially alone out in the country. I'm sympathetic to a degree, since I'm in a similar situation. I'm luckier, though, since I have good neighbors in the building who look out for me.

Totally reminds me of a song lyric delivered, hilariously, by Yves Montand in "On A Clear Day You Can See Forever":

"Could anyone among us have an inkling or a clue what magic feats of wizardry and voodoo you can do?

All the "oo" sounds were more like "ew" sounds.

I used to have a piece of a Robin Wagner set. It was the candy box and arm of Miss Lonelyhearts from the failed Sgt. Pepper’s Lonelyhearts Club Band.

When I saw the Rosemary Harris-led revival of Hay Fever, Charles Kimbrough had a moment near the end. The horrible weekend in the country is coming to an end and two people are sitting down to a wretched breakfast. He passes a tray of kippers to someone—I think it was Deborah Rush—who takes a timid and horrified bite. “It’s not very good, is it?” he mumbled. And the theater burst into laughter.

I’ll never forget that.

Today feels like Monday!

I have a distinct memory of what it was like to go to work following a three-day weekend:  All the upper management would be a-flurry trying to get accomplished what they believed had been lost on the holiday.  The day would be long, things would get done hastily (things that would have to be redone later on in the week), and everyone would be miserable.

Don't miss that at all.

I am almost to the point of making a decisive move toward cleaning out things that my mom had accumulated (didn't want to let go).

She was born in 1929 and her formative years were totally post-depression and every effort was made to take care of what she had.  She and my father took care of their possessions, and when it was time to let them go, they would sell them.  They never asked very much, but always got a decent price.

So here I come from California where I have given away way too much (but probably not enough) in order to economically move across country.

I miss nothing of what I let go.  And that's a lesson I'll not forget.

But I do have a 10-ft X 10-ft. storage shed full of things I kept.  Floor to ceiling storage, too. 

That has to wait until I get some order here. Perhaps it will all be done before I pass from this existence into the next.

Both from my own medical establishments and from our vet. Completely absurd.

I think it was my dentist's office manager to whom I mentioned that I'd received one of those, including a request for the medical update form that I'd updated and submitted two weeks prior, and that I completely ignored all of that.

Post by: ChasSmith on May 30, 2023, 07:10:17 AM
BK's notes hit the jackpot for me this morning. Let's get right to it, shall we?

Hospital Horror.

That's what I'm naming it.

When I saw the first airing of the Twilight Zone "Eye of the Beholder" episode at the tender age of ten or eleven, I was already a fan and was engrossed in watching it in my grandmother's room. (She was staying with us for a year in a rental house in Florida, prior to our buying a house.) I'd already been creeped out by the strange atmosphere of that hospital and the heroine's bandaged head and haunting voice, and the unsettling conversations with doctors and nurses. But with that first reveal near the end, little DR ChasSmith freaked right the hell out, covering his face and screaming. I still remember my grandmother running over to turn the TV off. I think I was already prone to scary dreams in those years, but that episode hit a nerve. In spite of that, I loved that episode and remained fascinated with it, but I think it was a quite a while before I was ready to return to it, and of course I later watched it a million times and loved it thereafter.

Then came "22". That one's pattern of the repeating nightmares with the ticking clock and glass of water and the morgue and the scary nurse affected me just as much, though thankfully without the violent reaction. But it also added death-related subject matter which morbidly fascinated me then.

And then, years later, Coma. I ate up every frame of that movie. And again, the creepy/scary hospital atmosphere that led to the discovery of the creepy/scary "institute" or whatever they called it. And yes, the score! What was additionally effective for me was the doctor's (Richard Widmark) playing of Mozart during his surgeries, because that piece suddenly introduced a calming and lovely, but (in the context of the scene) mournful/horrific quality as the camera tracked the anesthesia line going from the wall outlet to the operating table. Yes, the Women's Lib content is funny today, but the movie is a winner with a capital "W". A big "W".

Edit:  In my fan letter to Rod Serling some months later I told him how much those hospital settings in particular meant to me. I don't remember what I actually said in it, but I do still have his thank-you reply.

DR singdaw don't come to Indiana to see your first production of Grease.

It was really bad.....a very bad high school production.  There are some talented kids stuck in it - and at least one who is directing everyone from the stage....telling them where to go and what to do...and of course this person doesn't know her own lines and blocking - such as it is.

I don't think it is possible to salvage it....so I just hope it will be over.

Then again it could sell a lot of tickets.

I had a few comments as requested by the director but then after the show she turned to me and asked me to tell them to the cast.

I wasn't quite prepared for that....so encouraged them to be engaged and be in the moment and react to each other onstage.

Just bit the bullet and dialed 1-800-XFINITY, as instructed in the emails, to schedule the installation of the "upgraded" X1 boxes.

Apparently this isn't something you can just exchange for your old boxes at the local store. They come out to install, and to make sure everything's working as it should. And it's at no charge, so I can't argue with any of that. The worst part of these things is having to endure the phone call with someone on another planet, and the endless repetition of every aspect of the upgrade deal. The people who come out are usually great.

So, Saturday morning between 8 and 10. I could have had that slot tomorrow, but - wouldn't you know - I have rehearsal for the last of my spring gigs tomorrow morning, and Saturday was their next available date.

And it's at no charge, so I can't argue with any of that. The worst part of these things is having to endure the phone call with someone on another planet, and the endless repetition of every aspect of the upgrade deal. The people who come out are usually great.

So, Saturday morning between 8 and 10. I could have had that slot tomorrow, but - wouldn't you know - I have rehearsal for the last of my spring gigs tomorrow morning, and Saturday was their next available date.

Also they take the old boxes away instead of your needing to ship them back.

In laws bed was too high for them last night so in a panic they called their concierge who delivered a rollaway while MIL insisted on sleeping on the couch. I’m certain she barely slept. Place was very apologetic and they had put in a new bed before I showed up to check on things. Back on track, I think.

(Note: I had had my MIL test getting into bed yesterday but by day’s end it was just too difficult.)

Odd thing:  I find I went through all of my Tovala meals over the three-day weekend.

I usually make them last at least through Thursday (after getting them on Friday). And two of the meals were twofers, which means there are two portions in each box of a twofer.

I guess that's what comes from not going out on Sunday for lunch and from not making a fresh veggie run to Cook's roadside market.  I usually have meals I cook from scratch several times a week.  Will have to make a trip for more veggies.

I have an allergist appointment Thursday morning, and the trek takes me past Sara's Roadside Stand coming and going.

Sara's is always a treat, as is Cook's.

And, since I'm in North Augusta for my appointment, CostCo is nearby and will get more of my business before I return home.

Vibes your appointment goes well.

I expect it will.  Fingers crossed I don't wake up Thursday with major sinus issues.  That always messes up a visit with the allergist.

If only toilets were height-adjustable.
And floors.  I don't know about the rest of you, but I do not EVER get down on the floor without having some major means of helping me get back up nearby.

It did. At the time I thought it would be easier for them to get up from it. Didn’t work out, but place was quick to fix it.

The thing is, for us of a more mature age, that low beds are hell to get into and out of.  Of course, if it's too high, it's again a problem.

It's best that they find the right height right away.

There are some (most likely expensive) beds that are height adjustable.

I've never seen that.

Maybe I'm just thinking of hospital beds, but I would assume that there are some for regular people at homes.

I did a quick google search for adjustable beds and only found those that adjust the back or legs up and down.

Interesting.  You'd think that that would be a thing.

George do you want us to pick you up to go to the restaurant or will you meet us?  I don't know if you are planning to return to work after a late lunch, of if you want to meet earlier and return to work.

I'm not working the whole day, so I can meet you there and we can take as much time as we want.

Great, so what time?  We will be spending the night of our anniversary in Olympia. Except for a drive past the Capitol building we don't have any plans.

I lived in Italy for five years, and believe me:  A lot of public toilets are simply ceramic holes in the floor.  Happily, they put hand-hold bars on the walls.  The TP  is like sandpaper, rather than the luxury softeness we buy.

At this time of night, I am usually just embarking on my evening surf on the internet.

But after today and no nap, I got an early start on it all.

One of my surfs is watching videos on YouTube.  I am very much enjoy a singer who was on America's Got Talent back in 2016.

His names is Brian Justin Crum and he auditioned with Queen's "Somebody to Love" and sang the hell out of it.  His other performances included Radiohead's "Creep" and it, too, was mesmerizing.  He made it to the finals, but didn't win.  Amazing voice, though.

I also tool around finding various bits of bloopers from TV shows and other frivolities until I cannot keep my eyes open.  I sometimes also do Wordle if it's late enough for the new puzzle to have gone up.

I shall sleep this e'en, oh, yes, indeedy.

They wanted to make sure you saw them DR JOHN G.

They ten appeared in the other two extras and I was stupid enough to watch all of them.

My Rodzinski, things certainly are moving fast with your in-laws, or has this actually been a long time in coming?

I’m having trouble keeping my eyes open

Which should not be surprising since it’s been tomorrow for one hour and 20 minutes

Finished with my viewing.

Page eleven is fine.

But hopefully George won't go down a damn rabbit hole and we'll get to twelve.
Title: Re: ROOM FOR ONE MORE, HONEY
Post by: bk on May 30, 2023, 11:18:27 PM
We shall see.
Title: Re: ROOM FOR ONE MORE, HONEY
Post by: bk on May 30, 2023, 11:18:41 PM
Meanwhile, perhaps I'll write some damn notes.

The one where the girl rolls out of bed and through the wall into another dimension

I have a vague memory of that!

Well, I finally checked out The Whale from the library.
Title: Re: ROOM FOR ONE MORE, HONEY
Post by: George on May 31, 2023, 12:16:03 AM
We'll see if I actually watch it. ::)
Title: Re: ROOM FOR ONE MORE, HONEY
Post by: George on May 31, 2023, 12:16:35 AM
Sometimes I'll record something, or check something out from the library, or even buy something and then not watch it for a while.
Title: Re: ROOM FOR ONE MORE, HONEY
Post by: George on May 31, 2023, 12:17:30 AM
If ever. ;D
Title: Re: ROOM FOR ONE MORE, HONEY
Post by: George on May 31, 2023, 12:17:58 AM
But for things that I buy, I know that I have them when I finally decide to watch them.
Title: Re: ROOM FOR ONE MORE, HONEY
Post by: George on May 31, 2023, 12:19:03 AM
Of course, it doesn't help that I'm in a show.
Title: Re: ROOM FOR ONE MORE, HONEY
Post by: George on May 31, 2023, 12:19:34 AM
But I also only have one more weekend and then it's over.

Two hours we've been on this damn page.
Title: Re: ROOM FOR ONE MORE, HONEY
Post by: bk on May 31, 2023, 12:27:17 AM
And I'm not sure we're very near page twelve.

George went down a damn rabbit hole.

I, on the other hand, did not.

Is there gaslighting going on?

Post by: bk on May 31, 2023, 12:30:05 AM
I wrote them.
Title: Re: ROOM FOR ONE MORE, HONEY
Post by: bk on May 31, 2023, 12:30:33 AM
Certainly, no one else wrote them.

He must be eating a Big Whopper and fries.

Post by: bk on May 31, 2023, 12:31:47 AM
And I know he's writing a damn Preview Harvey review, which he'd better do before he forgets what the book is even about.
