"The plumbers just arrived, so it won't be long now..." is the title of my first highly censored novel.

Was this ever translated into esperanto?

No. Just Latin. Pig Latin, that is.

Back from mailing my old license plates back to the DMV in Connecticut.  I should have taken care of that long ago, but it's off the list now.

You actually had to return the license plates??  I've never heard of that.


The only way they'll cancel your old registration (and hence stop the property taxes) is if you turn in the old plates.


You pay property taxes on your automobile? It must be a deluxe model!

Soon I will have all of my episodes of JULIA watched. I sure do love that show. And, I love that Fred Williamson is in much of the final season.

I have heard he was a jerk, but he was sure a handsome one!

Yes, DR John G, it could be.  We were discussing at dinner last night how it might appeal to future buyers of this house.  I've been joking that, when Rob and Mary Linda move out, we'll hire a live-in caregiver and Richard and I can live here forever!

Then you won't need to worry about future buyers ;)

Usually they take the old ones from you, if not you get to keep them, or used to be able to.

Wow!  I'm glad I didn't have to do that when we left Connecticut.  At least I don't remember having to do that.

I was watching THE CHINA SYNDROME on TCM.  It's one of my favorite Jane Fonda performances....and Jack Lemmon and Michael Douglas are good, too.

The State of Virginia assesses personal property taxes on automobiles.  That was another surprise for me when I moved here from NY State.

Well, I'm leaving work now so that I can go home and get what I need to bring downtown to The Midnight Sun for tonight's pajama party and waffles movie night!  I have no idea how many (if any) people will show up, but we'll be ready for them.

Have a good rest of the evening, all!

Our neighbor spent two hours picking wild blackberries on our road.  She then baked a pie with slices of peaches on top of the berries and served it to us still warm from the oven with Häagen-Dazs vanilla bean ice cream.

That makes sense, I guess.  I've never moved out of state...at least, not since I started driving or paying property taxes.

your car registration is linked to your property taxes?  I don;t understand how that works. What if you don't own property?

 how does that work?  Is it based on the value of the car?

Thank you, dear. I'm currently unemployable, and until that situation changes  - and I do hope it does - I must do what I can to occupy myself.
