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

Really? I had no idea! Thank you, DR Laura.

I should have taken the ibuprofen but I hoped the Tylenol PM woud knock me out.

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.



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.




I have wanted to read a graphic novel.  I think this would be perfect for my first experience.  Have you read one before?  These graphics must be fun for you.

I've been told to drink lots of water with the Tylenol.  I don't suppose it can hurt. 

Pain free vibes!

So far you have not taken to much Tylenol so don't worry about it tonight.  I hope the PM does the trick.

He took Tylenol and Tylenol PM. That's a double dose.

No alcohol, either, Elmore.

In other news...

I just woke up from an antihistamine-induced nap.  Of course, since I'm awake now, but I'm still feeling a bit drowsy, so I think I'm gonna go ahead and head to bed now.  And if I happen to wake up early, then I can't get some work done before I have to head out for the day tomorrow.  Or something like that.  -Although, lately, I keep finding myself waking up at 6:15 automatically.  In any case...

Goodnight.  For now at least.

As long as DR elmore's liver has been functioning normally lately, he should be fine.  And four "regular" Tylenol are equal to one prescription strength pill.  And as long as DR elmore hasn't been taking that amount of Tylenol over a long period of time... And as long as he hasn't been drinking alcoholic beverages...

Next, I watched today's THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS. Phillip finally revealed his BIG secret to the rest of the family. Adam was on hand, too, but in a plot that hasn't picked up much steam yet.


What is Phillip's BIG secret?


That he is gay!

We HAVE been talking about it for the past week. I wasn't sure whether DR TCB was making a joke or was serious with his question.

We didn't get any more rain, and it got hot. I know my AC will be kicking on and off all night due to the humidity.

I began my evening watching two more VERONICA MARS episodes so I could clear disc 3 out of the player.

The first one was a good episode where Keith had to help Sheriff Lamb (now starring as Adam on Y&R) with a local serial rape case.

The second involved Veronica getting framed for manufacturing fake IDs at school and her going into surveillance mode to find out who framed her. This was also the poignant episode where Mac found out about her real parents and being switched at birth. Very moving episode.

Next I watched the last of the Warner Homefront Collection - HOLLYWOOD CANTEEN. I had never seen this all the way through, so it was good to see people I didn't even know were in it: Jack Benny, Kitty Carlisle. It was too long, and color would have helped, but it was still entertaining.

Then I watched tonight's episode of THE CLOSER. This was, I guess, the comic episode of the season. There was TOO MUCH SCREAMING in the episode, not just from that dimwit woman suspect but from the "fake" detective and Chief Pope and, well, just about everyone.

The case was good, and the detective impersonator was SUCH a novel touch for the show that I did enjoy it, but I wish they could have somehow toned down that overly loud approach to their frustration.

If I remember correctly it is still ok as long as he doesn't take too much in a 24 hour period.  If I'm in pain I take 2 extra strength Tylenol's per dose.  I just try not to keep taking it every 4 hours.

I didn't get anything new to review today, but, of course, something could come tomorrow morning or afternoon and then I'd be back to work.

Otherwise, looks like tomorrow will be another day off.

It was pretty quiet on the internet tonight; not a lot going on that I could see.

That's fine. I can get to bed a little earlier tonight and be fresh for my eye exam tomorrow morning.

New revised cover - I loved it before, but now it's FABOO all the way.  The new "Hollywood" is so perfect - we both love it.

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.

~~~Feel Better Vibes for DR Elmore!!~~~

This is what I was going to post this morning:

DR George - Glad to hear you had a good audience last night. -Just out of curiosity, do you happen to know what the seating capacity is for the theatre you're playing in?

The configuration that we used (in the round) had about 80-90 seats.  I never heard the exact number, but we never needed all the seats. :-\

Anyway, yesterday, we had the last performance of "Romeo & Juliet."  It was a good ending to a fun experience.  I had a ball (an I Had a Ball reference! ;)) and will miss working with these people on this show.  We struck the set after our matinee performance, cleaned the dressing rooms and the theater, loaded up everything into the truck and/or our cars and went out for pizza!  About 25 of us went to a local pizza place and just unwound and ate and talked and said most of our good-byes and gave and received lots of hugs.  That was a very good way to end things.  But it wasn't quite over.  We had to unload the truck of all the stuff that TAO was keeping.  That took a little bit o' time.  THEN we said our final good-byes with lots more hugs and I got home at about 10:45 p.m.

And that was my day, yesterday. :)
