I was there ushering while hordes of families were on hand to get their daughters (and the occasional son) ready for tomorrow's dance recitals.

Only cats are often more polite.

Actually, the vast majority of the people were polite. But beware of stage/dance/soccer moms.

Then I went and had brunch. A lovely fried oyster sandwich with egg and bacon on it.

I've been doing laundry and am now taking a little break. Cleaning is next. I really do need some help. So glad that TCB has Betzy to help him.

TCB, such a shame about your great-nephew's accident. Is he facing any sort of liability issues?

Vibes to him and to all involved.

I think it'd be wonderful if you (TCB) and Sandy could go to Las Vegas.

I'm up, I'm up - fell asleep at three and thankfully she of the Evil Eye did not come today, so I slept until noon for nine hours of sleep.

I enjoyed Dr T, but I'm not sure I would have in college. I think I'd have felt confused by it. I saw a lot of foreign films and other nonmainstream stuff, too.

I am having a lazy day.

I have been too, but no more.  I've been watching some TV episodes that were recorded on my DVR, but now I have to take a shower, get dressed and go outside.  This weekend is Olympia's Pride celebration, and I want to be there for at least a bit of it before I have to go to tonight's show.  So, I'm off.

Have a good day all!

Has anyone read THE SYMPATHIZER?  The author is obviously extremely intelligent, the book well written, it received a Pulitzer prize for fiction, yet I am very sorry I didn't stop reading it sooner than I did.

According to the handlers, she'll touch the water about 2:30AM when the tide is high.
