When we lived in Michigan there was a delivery service called Door to Door that I used fairly often when Keith traveled. They delivered from a huge selection of restaurants so if we wanted we could each order something from a different place. We usually ordered from a wonderful Tai restaurant that had great food but was a bit gaudy inside.

My last load of wash is about to go in the clothes dryer and then I can dry my own hair. Exciting news

I guess if I'm going to jog I should jog.

Watching BURN WITCH, BURN seems to be the thing to do this weekend...everyone is doing it! Including me, in fact I just finished it.

I liked the leads in the film, quite a lot. Much of the film made no sense to me, however, and it lacked the melodramatic punch of the previous version of that story, 1944's WEIRD WOMAN.

Now I will watch CURSE OF THE DEMON, a film I have not seen since I was a child, and even then I think I only saw that final scene of it. Everyone raves about the film, so I am expecting it to be enjoyable.

But first I might just watch WEIRD WOMAN...Anne Gwynne, Evelyn Ankers, Lois Collier, and Elizabeth Russell provide enough cattiness for a dozen films.

Of course I really should be doing errands and chores...grocery shopping and laundry, to be exact. Oh well.

The house has just opened for our second performance. It's a bought house, so there's no telling how many people will actually show up. $:-\$

For the last several days, I've kept thinking that I need to go to Fred Meyer to get something, but I absolutely cannot think of what I might've needed. I hate it when that happens.

LOL It does seem that when when my head has been in and out of the dryer so often.

When I was a young we had a wall heater in the bathroom I would sit in front of while I brushed my hair dry. The coils down the middle would get red hot. These days I use a hair dryer. Our first house in Reseda, California had one of these. When Bryan was about 1 year old he stuck his finger in it, while it was off, and before I could prevent him from tugging his hand out he cut himself. When I called the neighbor to come hold him still while I stopped the bleeding she, an experienced mother of three, said she would take us to the ER for stitches.

Oh my goodness! If that were made today, that would be a lawsuit just waiting to happen!

Final score: Michigan 63, Indiana 47

Can you tell neither team has much defense?

Ginny · « **Reply #109 on:** October 19, 2013, 04:29:57 PM »

Indiana has not won in Ann Arbor since my senior year - in high school.

Our stage manager just told me that Kimya Dawson, who wrote the songs for "Juno," is in the audience with her daughter! I didn't know that Kimya lives here in Olympia and comes to all the Olympia Family Theater shows! That's pretty darned cool!

I love getting the Cooking Channel. We didn't get it on cable. Lots of my old favorite Food TV shows are on the Cooking channel. I feel like I found some old friends!

Hello, everyone.

Feel-better vibes to DRs Chas, Doug, Cilla, and anyone else who needs them.

The good news:
I had an eye exam this morning with a new optometrist and I LIKE her. This is significant because the last two optometrists failed to get my prescription right. Both times I had to complain that I couldn't see properly. Of course, this is not met with pleasure. They get huffy and sometimes offensive and insist that the Rx they gave me is correct. I then say, "But I can't see properly!" As my hairdresser put it, how can anyone but me tell if I can see well or not? And so it goes. So far I like her.

The bad news:
It'll take about a week to have new reading glasses made. Until then I'm wearing my reading glasses from two years ago, which aren't really helping much. Reading is difficult and I will have to limit it. As I usually spend much of the day on the computer, it will be a challenge.

Once I have the new reading glasses--and they work well for me--then I'll have a new progressive made. I've been through this so many times that I've learned not to have a progressive made until I know that the reading Rx is good. It doesn't guarantee that the progressive will work, but at least we'll be one step closer.

Need I add that this drill is one HUGE OY? So, I won't be able to read or post much here for the next week.

A belated welcome to new DR upperco. Perhaps I missed it, but what is the derivation of "upperco"?

My bathroom has a heater just like that. It's never been cold enough to need it.
