I slept very well. Even better, I had lots of cuddle time with Thatch and Annabelle. I have no idea where Stella slept last night, but from her beheavior over the past hour, I suspect she's been exploring and finding lots of things to get into.

I like to look at old Billboard Hot 100 charts, there’s a Facebook page that links to the top 20 and the bottom 20 from decades ago. A good way to study things I missed. There was a fairly high-charting Barbra song I didnt recognize. “Coming in and Out of Your Life.” It kinda came back to me when I listened to it. I actually fell asleep listening to it on loop.

It’s a fantastic vocal performance of a complex song. Happy to have (re)discovered it.

My neighbor Diana on the first floor just slipped a Christmas card under my door. I had told her on Thursday that I was getting a haircut as soon as I could afford it, and she asked me whjere I went for a barber. I told her it was Excellence, a half block away.

I like to look at old Billboard Hot 100 charts, there’s a Facebook page that links to the top 20 and the bottom 20 from decades ago. A good way to study things I missed. There was a fairly high-charting Barbra song I didnt recognize. “Coming in and Out of Your Life.” It kinda came back to me when I listened to it. I actually fell asleep listening to it on loop.

It’s a fantastic vocal performance of a complex song. Happy to have (re)discovered it.

I don't think that I had ever heard this song...at least, I have no memory of ever knowing this song.

I saw Ruthless with BK on my first trip to LA to mix Liz Callaway's Loesser album and "Unsung Sondheim." I hated it.

There was a local production that I liked (but didn't care for the guy who played Sylvia), but a couple of friends of mine also did not like the show. :-\

And I am full.

I also am full.  We had cheese lasagna at my mom's, as well as a couple of veggie dishes.  It was all quite good.

When I moved here in 2017, I bought a new Epson printer, the kind that didn't use cartridges, that you refiled with liquid ink. Today, seven YEARS later, I had to finally replace the black ink. Is that not amazing? Seven YEARS. That has saved me hundreds and hundreds in those stupid cartridges. And after seven YEARS I still have plenty of the three color inks left.

I can't remember how long ago I bought my Epson EcoTank, but I still haven't refilled it!  Highly recommended!
