Muggy NYC is as uncomfortable as all get out. Subways are like steam baths. Many memories of getting all duded up and having to wait for subway trains, late of course, crowds billowing, making it hotter and more uncomfortable. Then, you get to your destination looking like you were caught in a downpour.

That is so true. Much as I love Manhattan, I do not like it much between May and October!

Did a complete rewrite of Sandy's patter for the It Might Be Fun show, which I think she wants to do in DC and New York. After we premiered the show here, I was not happy with a couple of things in the show order, and I was completely not happy with the thrust of the patter, so I changed almost all of it to be less about me (she thought it should be about me) and more about the songs themselves and how they relate to her.

Hello, everyone.

Last night I watched FED UP, the documentary that BK wrote about a week or two ago. It dealt a lot with childhood obesity and the cases they profiled were really heartbreaking.

Well, folks, I got me a fine Monday morning welcome home howdy-do a little while ago.

Turned my computer on (I generally leave it on but had turned it off before leaving town), everything was fine, and then I went to look up something on IMDb... and picked up a nice case of Adware/Malware. Of course I really don't know what to blame, but crap started happening as soon as I clicked on my search results there.

It had been quite a long time since that happened. Control Panel Uninstall saw some new stuff and supposedly removed it, Revo Uninstaller saw a couple more things and supposed removed those, but the crap was still happening when I opened a browser. Had to download Malwarebytes (which I thought I had, but it must have been on a former laptop), ran their scan, and it quarantined some 130 threats. Incredible. But I'm back in business.

So sorry to hear this, Chaz. It's always a surprise and never a good one. Glad to hear all has been resolved.

I believe Mercury Retrograde just started. Coincidence?

Ryan is out of focus.

Is that a statement of fact or an editorial comment?

It's a great photo, in any case.

I think I'm in need of a nap. I didn't sleep well last night and Mondays are always busy. I'm pooped!

Sing, how did your gospel singing go? I was thinking it wasn't until next week.

TTFN.

I hope Sandy will do the show here!

Thanks for asking, DR Jeanne. The number went really well. It wasn't just me; there were 2 other soloists and a backup choir. However, let me say this:
Gospel is not our authentic style.

We will be watching the Mad Men finale shortly. Surprisingly, we have not seen any spoilers yet. (I avoided reading the opening paragraph of today's notes until later).

So much better than the movie! When I was in the play in high school our drama teacher wanted us to see the movie. Of course this was long before home video, so he arranged a field trip for us to the studios of CKLW-TV in Windsor, Ontario (across the river from Detroit) for a private screening. The girl in our cast who played Mrs. Daigle said Eileen Heckart sounded like a typewriter when she talked.

No, ever since I was hospitalized he's been living on my friends' farm. DC Minny still remembers me when I talk with him on the phone and, of course, when I am there in person. I would love to have him back here, but it would break my heart even more to take him away from what he's become accustomed to. I can't do that to him. It would be selfish to move him from the country back to a small apartment.

I may get another kitty. After my upcoming surgery, provided that all goes A-OK, I may look into getting another cat. I would like that.
