Well, you've read the notes, the notes had fireworks and joy and celebration, and now it is time for you to post until the celebratory cows come home.

And the word of the day is: CONTRADISTINCTION!

ChasSmith · « **Reply #2 on:** July 01, 2015, 03:01:56 AM »

First!

Good morning, all.

From one who is not really up. Just been listening to the most incredible rain and thunder ever. And I mean EVER. On the radar we were in the red.

Seems to have passed. Probably on its way to Boston or out to the ships at sea.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #3 on:** July 01, 2015, 03:03:26 AM »

Okay, that's all for now.

A little more sleep, hopefully.

I don't think I had ever heard that story about the original print of The Creature. Or if I had, I had forgotten.

Tarnation!

Indeed, that was some loud thunderstorm at 4 a.m. or so.

Sounded like someone was practicing for Saturday's fireworks.

Hoping the rain is over for the day.

Good morning, all.

We had a huge thunderstorm yesterday at work. It rained like crazy, prompting flash flood warnings. As I drove home after the rain, water was high in the culverts and moving at a violent pace.

By the time I got home, I discovered that my neighborhood had a sprinkling and little else.

Guess I'll be watering today.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #9 on:** July 01, 2015, 05:28:06 AM »

And I got two more hours of sleep after that. With two of the craziest, most intense, wacky dreams ever.

Had some windows open, and was really lucky it wasn't blowing in. Some wet window sills, is all. But the sound of that rain is so gorgeous and the air so delicious that you don't WANT to close the windows more than necessary. A truly incredible storm, that was.

Good morning, all! I am on pills and needles today wondering if Office depot will show up and cart away their mess.

I slept well last night. i've been rereading the book about the stage designs of William and Jean Eckart, which is full of stupid errors by the author, who should knew better as a theatre person: orchestrator William Russell Bennett, actor Robert Roundsville are the two big clinkers. Still, the book is gorgeous to look at, and the Eckarts' comments are both informed and entertaining. So, i read far too long last night and as a consequence slept in.

I also have a Fed Ex pickup: two more cartons off to Ohio.

Tomorrow. my beloved goddaughter Charlotte and I will see Jurassic World in 3-D. When I paid for the tickets, I nearly dropped dead: $45.00 for two - one of them a senior citizen ticket! - to see a silly 3-D moving picture.

Ridiculous.

And . . . the laundry is in the washers.

I'm glad this will be a short week.

Ben · « **Reply #15 on:** July 01, 2015, 05:57:59 AM »

Morning all.

That is all.

Our guest bed is very comfortable.

I woke up at 5:30 and Keith was already up. I had better do the same and help unpack. Yesterday I did 3 large wardrobe boxes and a couple of bedding ones. We needed the bedding and linens. I bet the coffee maker is out, if only we had coffee for Keith. Fortunately the coffee shop we love is close by.

Jane · « **Reply #20 on:** July 01, 2015, 06:12:07 AM »

They also have delicious ice cream.

Ask BK Day:
Bruce, have you decided if you're going to audition for that play?

Good morning to all

Dropped by work yesterday to fax some paperwork.

Glad to see that I am missed. Work has been quiet and they have been cutting back hours to the minimum hours.

Michael · « **Reply #29 on:** July 01, 2015, 06:47:14 AM »

Safe travels to Ginny.
