A couple of weeks ago, Theater Artists Olympia held our annual elections through an on-line survey site. That worked, except that our vice president position resulted in a tie. So, for the last several hours, I was creating another survey for the tie-breaking vote. I got it all set up and sent out, except this time I couldn't figure out how to set the end day/time for the survey. We got it set up the first time, but I didn't see any place to enter that info this time. Oh, well. I put the end date/time in the survey e-mail, so we just have to not count any votes if they come in after that specified time. I'm sure that it'll be fine.

I always wondered what the torpedoes did to get damned in the first place.

Speaking of bad movies, I watched most of "Plan 9 From Outer Space" yesterday.

4 a.m. and 89F.

We are supposed to get thunderstorms tomorrow. Boy, I hope it brings us rain. Our last rain was in March.

I thought this was kind of interesting: an errant period in the Declaration of Independence?

Good morning, all.

Had a pretty good sleep, but had to get up promptly to call the air conditioner people because last night it started leaking in the basement which means it had been icing up, and is time for a cleaning and a draining. This has to be dealt with every few years. Since I can't run it until it's taken care of, I'm sort of begging them to try to fit me in today. If they can't, this afternoon and tonight will not be fun.

Coffee!

Thursday morning greetings! Today we're painting the wall behind our headboard, so we slept on our "bed island" last night. My job is much simpler today because there's no window in this wall. We'll also probably put the bookcases into the corner we painted yesterday and Richard will spend some time filling those up while I have my hair cut and do some other errands.

as for all the catchphrases I think the ones I knew came from sitcom from the 70's and 80's. But they all came tiresome after a while.

But perhaps the best one to come from a 60's Dramatic program was from "The Prisoner"

Question of the day:

Tomorrow The United States Celebrates their Independence Day.

Of course they have a July 4th. I think they call it, "July 4th." It usually occurs between the 3rd and the 5th (except for leap year, of course).
