Last night was a lot of weird dreams aout several erotic obsessions of mine that occurred in and about a combination of several places I worked in the past 40 years: an office supplies store that became a library or book store, an apartment building with turrets, a museum. A lot of people from my past and present, along with several erotic obsessions of mine over the past years, were in it. It was strange.  Then at 4:30am, I was wide awake for about an hour.

Last load of laundry in the washer....whew!   My dryer vents into my garage so I don't like to do laundry when it's too cold out because I have to open the garage a little.   With the cold snap we've had, I had  a lot of laundry!

Did I ever mention how I fixed my washing machine?   I just unplug it when I'm not using it.  It's been working fine ever since I started doing that and obviously it can't start by itself like it was doing before.

I hope that when I need it I have as much common sense as you have.

Well, this is kicking up Facebook today. The PR's good but the story doesn't jive at all with what I heard about the causes for the delay:

As usual, the truth never comes out and PS Classics and Tommy are trying to either be diplomatic or they made a deal and can't say the truth.

I spent an hour futzing and fixing, as I knew I would need to, but I'm pretty happy with it so far.  I then had a sandwich and onion rings, determined that there were no packages to pick up, so now I'll get back to writing.  I am going to see Grant's daughter in some play this evening.  He's picking me up.  Thankfully, it's only an hour long.

That was the case with the PS Classics recording of Life Begins at 8:40. Eric Stern's name is nowhere in sight.

No football for me today, DR TCB.  Mary Linda and I are having a lady party tomorrow afternoon, so I've been cleaning and doing some food prep.

The bowl games I have seen this season have been good matchups, I think.

Please keep my Dear Niece in your thoughts and prayers.  She had severe abdominal pain last night and was rushed to the hospital. She ended up having emergency surgery in the middle of the night to stop some severe abdominal bleeding.  I don't really know more except that she is out of recovery, talking and may go home later today.   I haven't talked to anyone there, just got notified via email.  I have to wonder if it isn't related to her two c sections in a year and a half

quick recovery and health vibes

Can it be re-vented to outside the garage?  There were some condos in my complex that had dryers venting into the units' ceilings!  The original condo board allowed that to happened (it was built 30 years ago) and now, those units have had some damage that the HOA has to pay for.  The president at the time allowed some very shaky choices with the building of the buildings.  He's long gone from the HOA, but the current board (and actually several incarnations over the last several years) have had to clean up some stupid mistakes that shouldn't have happened.

I would hate to have to keep my garage door opened EVERY time I did laundry.

Have written seven pages so far.  Will do at least three more before being on my way to see a play.  But for now I think I'll take a little break.

The nice thing is that if I finish the next two or three pages, I'll be done with Chapter One - that will be great.

It's not so bad.  Not really worth the trouble to change it. I just open the door about 6 inches or so.   It's not up to code, but I really don't think it's hurting anything

Donna Douglas death is - a hoax.  I am so tired of these death hoaxes and there should be a way to launch a lawsuit against any site that thinks that sort of thing is funny.

I just edited my original comment as the news is reporting that she did pass away.  Those hoaxes are frustrating, however, possibly this time the hoax was that she was alive :(

Wrote a bit over twelve pages and finished chapter one.  Even though I knew in advance how chapter one was going to end, I was rather surprised at the emotion that I felt.

DR lechienfou, Keith & I have gone to the parade a couple of times but never just to see the floats.  I wish we had done that.  We never took the children though which I would also liked to have done.


My dear friend Patsy, who owned the travel agency where I worked, has a sister that works every year on several of the floats for the Rose Parade.  Patsy went down and helped out one year.  Apparently, this year her sister's group won one of the major awards.

The year that Patsy went down and helped, she thought it would be a lot of fun.  Instead, she said it was more like drudgery.

The Alamo Bowl is showing a number of PSA's for San Antonio, several with the emphasis on food.  I have yet to see John or his book mentioned.
