I cleaned out the garage, moved all my outdoor furniture etc into the garage for the winter, did some work at the office, bought a new bird feeder and installed it, cleaned the kitchen and did the laundry.  The washer sort of worked right.  I need to call someone to check on it turning on by itself. In the meantime I'm unplugging it when not in use

I always feel like a slacker when I read about Cilla's day

Not all my days are like this one

I can't wait until the election is over.  We have a close senate race and I can't stand watching these stupid ads any longer.  Heck, I voted a couple weeks ago, so it's just annoying

Great.  It will probably show up in a bit.

Are you able to arrange for us to all sit together or is that something we individually need to arrange directly with the venue ?

Ate my chicken noodle soup - I clearly asked for a bowl of chicken noodle soup - when I got home I discovered a bowl of matzoh ball soup - not enough broth, which is what I needed, but I have to admit it was very good.

I shouldn't say that.  My ex and I have become Facebook friends.

Today is the last performance of Theater Artists Olympia's production of "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) [revised]."  It was a great show and even though everyone who saw it really enjoyed it, we just didn't have a LOT of audience members.  We did, however, end up making a profit. :D

Well, our final performance had yet another small but appreciative audience.  Actually, we had 19 people, which is just about half the house, so that was good.  The three actors were all on and it was a great last performance.

We struck the set and had a small cast party...there were only seven partying, but we all had a great time just chatting and eating and drinking.  One of the actors and his husband (yes, his husband, who also happens to be the president of Theater Artists Olympia) held the party at their house.  It was a great way to end the show.

Now, I just need to compile all the financial stuff and report back to the licensors about our actual ticket sales, which we underestimated.  Oh, well.

I had the flu once. The kids were in preschool, and it was a strain that was hitting young people very hard. All four of us got it. It was horrible. I have had a flu shot every year since. Never want to have the flu again!

Last year they gave me the live-virus sniffy immunization by mistake. So I had that one PLUS a shot.


And you have never had the flu since?

I've never had a flu shot and I've never had the flu.

Hooray for TAO making a profit on the show!

Thanks, Fred!  It's not a huge profit, but a profit nonetheless. ;D

Good morning, all.

Great news, George, on the show turning a profit. That's always good.

(And thanks, George, for Sweeney. It arrived in yesterday's mail.)

Thanks, John and you're welcome, John!

Okay, I'm off to a day of RAGTIME.

Hope it went well, ChasSmith!  (I haven't caught up with all the posts, yet.)
