I noticed this morning that the prescription for my progressive didn't include an "add." Without an "add" you can't make a progressive. Oy. I ended up having yet another eye exam. My eyes have been examined every possible way over the past few months. But it was quick and I do like the new optometrist.

Interestingly, his Rx is quite a bit different from the two progressive prescriptions from the surgeon. We won't know how correct it is until we make the glasses. With my new eyes this is supposed to be easy!

But there a lots of folks I've never heard of. Lots of famous movies and shows I've never seen.

And I haven't the faintest clue about pop music or celebrities of the day.

I'm not good for much, actually. You don't want me on your trivia team.


Even if you never answered a single question correctly, I'd still want you on my team!

My mom makes an interesting peach pie. Sometimes I loved it, sometimes I didn't

Even your mother's cooking is funny :)

Well, she doesn't like to cook, so sometimes she has patience with it and it's great and sometimes she doesn't so it's not as great.....

Patience peach pie. I like the sounds of that.

 I'll see if I have the recipe, it's actually a really good pie when you don't take it out of the oven before it's done....ie when you have patience

I look forward to reading the recipe.

Oh my gosh! How could I have forgotten liver and onions and bacon. The whole thing was cooked in bacon grease. Those were the days!

Hope that it's nothing like what you fear.

Ditto though I fear it will be.

Joshua Bell was really good. He performed Beethoven's Violin Sonata No. 9 and a sonata by Faure'. Then he closed out with the Hungarian Dance from Brahms, the Chopin's Nocturne, and Wieniaski's Scherzo Tarantelle, which was super showy and lots of fun.

I hear he's a real diva off stage, but no matter. After the concert, he gladly signed anything for everyone in the audience and posed for pictures.

Nice.

Jane and George, I missed your earlier conversation, but I also had a wonderful time at dinner on Sunday.  Thank you very much.

I am thinking of going back to Harbor Lights for another slice of chocolate cake (probably with steak and oysters first).

Sorry about the beets, Jane.  I hope the salmon was good.  I don't remember what Keith had.

My mom made a great apple pie.  At least, I heard it was good from everyone else.  I don't like apple pie, never have, never will.  Not just my mother's pie, but anyone's apple pie.

I loved most every other dessert she made.

Cherry pie
Banana cream pie
Lemon meringue pie
Rhubarb pie
Cakes, cookies

When I was in high school, I dated a nice Italian girl.  My mom and her grandmother became good friends.  The grandmother got my mother making pizzelle cookies.  My mom became a hit at cookie exchanges because she would take pizzelle to the parties.  I liked the cookies, but I preferred the batch she would make for me that didn't have anise in them.

Well, it's time for me to leave.  I'm off to "Circle Mirror Transformation."  We'll see if they have the projections fixed or not. 

Be back later!

They fixed it!  Everything went quite well tonight.  The music and all the projections worked, and I even figured how to fade the projections in and out, instead of them coming on and off instantly. :)

I still don't get it. :-\ The acting and direction are good, but I just don't understand the point of the story.
