Good Evening!

Well... If you end up seeing a post from me that looks like this:

"jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjddddddddddddd dddddddddddiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaa  dfjdassssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss sssssssssssss"

It just means the antihistamine I took finally kicked in.

I was walking around earlier, and had a sudden allergy attack - or at least an allergic reaction to something.  I started feeling very itchy, and watery-eyed.  So, I ran into the nearest drug store, and bought some Chlortrimetron.  It was my first real allergy symptom in a long time, so more of annoyance than anything else.


How are we supposed to notice the difference?

Thanks, DR Jane!  Here are the books:


Playing with the Enemy:  A Baseball Prodigy, World War II, and the Long Journey Home, by Gary W. Moore



This looks very intriguing.  Please let me know if it is good.  Craig loves baseball & baseball stories.  I would like to get it for him.  I also like baseball stories, and love WWII stories.

Good night, TCB.  I'm off, too...but to my parents' house.  I said that after "R&J" was finished, I'd come over and put together a rolling cart for their kitchen.  Tonight's the night.

Until later!

You guys are funny today.

Hmmmm, time to take an hour nap.  
Frustrating day.  The 20 somethings at work drive me crazy, what would they do without gossip.

A Mighty Long Way:  My Journey to Justice at Little Rock Central High School, by Carlotta Walls LaNier


A number of years ago I met the friend of a friend, a wonderful woman who's brother had been one of the nine.  She & my friend talked about visiting us but, to my regret, it never happened.

DR Ginny - You should have a PM from me, and if you happen to check your "@ mentions" on Twitter, you should see something from there too. ;)

Yes, DR Jose, got your PM (and voicemail) - thanks!  I'd wondered how Garrett Popcorn happened to follow me on Twitter - now I know!

We really wanted the caramel cashew crunch, but they were out.  We have buttery and caramel popcorn for dinner tonight.

Stitches: A Memoir, by David Small

Three of them are "advance reading copies" and the others are the actual books that you'd find in a bookstore, including one hardcover.


Is this a hardcover?  I also want to hear what you think of this.  I have a feeling this is going to be a good one.

Cilla, this would not be NY - that would be a separate thing, and this would happen first, as it would give me more time to get things the way I like them.  In fact, you'll be happy to know it would be in Iowa.


Iowa?

It worked for Obama ;)

I'm currently reading an uncorrected proof of a book that should be released in January.  One of our house guest autographed it for us & brought it as a house gift.
So far I'm happy to say I'm enjoying it.

Stitches is one of the ARCs, so it's a softcover.  It's a graphic novel - have you ever read one of those?  The only one I've read is Cancer Vixen.  David Small (Stitches) grew up in Detroit on a street like mine, lined with elm trees that formed a cathedral over the street, and in a house that, from the drawings in the book, looked exactly like the one where I grew up.

Well, our luncheon outing cut into my exhibit time today, so I'm going to get up early and be there when they open at 9am tomorrow.  Think I'd better turn in early tonight - 'night!

it's been a long and wonderful day. Or it was until I did something wrong at the recording studio and pulled something in both my back as well as my left leg and I can hardly stand or walk. It's very similar to the situation in July 2004 when I ended up on crutches for several weeks. DR Ben may remember that.

Tomorrow I will try to see Dr Munshi about the problem. I've taken Tylenol PM and Tylenol and I hope it knocks me out because the pain is intense and I am very uncomfortable. I'm also very sleepy.

BK, I got your message and I hope to talk to you tomorrow.

Don't take too much Tylenol at once, Elmore. Liver damage.
