As soon as I got here, family situation has arisen. Mom has decided that Dad isn't to drive anymore. I've offered to buy the car. I think one sister was hoping to get it.

Another silly question:

Mid-to-late 1980s, I think this was in the shopping strip behind Du-Par's, but it might have been some other such strip along that same stretch of Ventura and on the same side of the road -- I recall being taken to an informal but nice sit-down Italian jernt that was popular for a while.  No idea how long it lasted.  Does that sound familiar?

Yes, there was an Eyetalian jernt in that mall for years - I ate there many times - don't remember the name.

I had a Chinese chicken salad and a bagel for lunch, then picked up no packages.  Am now awaiting the arrival of John Boswell.

I survived. They didn't let me sleep this time, but it was nothing, really.

Good luck sorting it all out.

It's hard for the dust to settle when it's so windy.

Neck surgery tomorrow.

I'll be off the board for a few days.

Positive thoughts, please.



Surgery vibes for DR Druxy!

Link to a warm parody-tribute to Bette Midler in Hello Dolly
(a parody by Fred Landau & Jan Horvath, with a vocal by Bruce Horvath)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hv4JujI26zM

in the spirit of the fan who fainted at "Hello Dolly" the other night, but told the paramedics "I'd sooner die than miss Act 2!" (per the Page Six article in the Post)



Fun!

The pill finally seems to have kicked in - it was terrible before.  When I went to CVS they were out of Claritin D so I got their generic D brand, which they told me was exactly the same.  All I can tell you is that Claritin D would have stopped this in the first hour and the generic brand has taken six hours.

Save the box and compare the active ingredients as well as the inactive.  Usually the generic works as well, however, often it doesn't in my experience.

Generics on allergy pills don't work for me. The worst is the Benedryl substitute.

So, apparently folks at Mom and Dad's church staged an intervention and got Fad to agree to stop driving. Six couples have volunteered to take them to church, for groceries and to doctors' appointments. I hope it works.
