Earlier today, a co-worker told me that Warner Bros. is having a "Christmas in July" sale:

Super duper Val just showed up with my printer and it's now up and running. He said he was going to bring it up last night but it was too late.

That's some good news!

Well, the food has yet to arrive (coming via ONTRAC and those idiots like to make the UPS Store their last visit, despite a package that is clearly marked FOOD and PERISHABLES. This may be my one and only thing with these people unless they find a better way to ship or do morning delivery. Because what these idiot drivers like to do is show up at the UPS Store one minute before it closes, which means the PERISHABLES package can't be retrieved until the following day.

Will wonders never cease - ONTRAC has delivered. Guess I'll go pick it up now.

It's a strip mall DR JANE and no way to get to the back door easily. There were no cars in the parking lot in front of the office, which I thought was strange.

They must have rushed out of there quickly. I asked about banging on the back door because I have done that

I have my phone set to "do not disturb" during the night.

I wish I could do that...

Me, too. I have a couple of specific apps on my phone where I can set that, but not (as far as I know) my whole phone.

Re: Today's subject "The Neglected Colon"

A meme has been going around Facebook. It's a tad bit yucky, but it's funny inasmuch as it highlights the importance of correct spelling:

I wonder how many folks remember THIS VIDEO/SONG .

I remember this playing during sign-ons and sign-offs on TV back in the 1950s!!!

Not I. That's before my time.

Topic of the Day:

Choir. I really enjoyed it, my friends were in choir, it was easy for me, so it kept my GPA at a solid B through all four years of high school.

And now, I'm leaving work. I have pants to hem, and lines to run, and a face to feed.

Be back later.

Tonight I went to an interfaith service at my church . My friend Ailia from work came with me

vixmom · « **Reply #140 on:** July 12, 2017, 07:38:01 PM »

We had Lutherans, Baptists,Methodist , Jews and Muslims

vixmom · « **Reply #141 on:** July 12, 2017, 07:39:52 PM »

It was a nice service filled by a buffet dinner hosted by a Turkish Muslim group

John we started out with a home health aide service where they kept rotating the help... Some of whom were worse than no help at all. When we found one that was consistently god we persuaded her to leave the agency and come work full time

vixmom · « **Reply #143 on:** July 12, 2017, 07:43:01 PM »

We paid slightly less than we had to the agency and she made a great deal more than she had working for the agency

My BK question: why not get the food delivered to your house instead of the UPS stop?

John G. · « **Reply #146 on:** July 12, 2017, 08:17:21 PM »

I really enjoyed Falsettos. No, it's not the best-written show, but the cast was excellent. I especially liked Stephanie J. Block as Trina.

Best of all, though, was the way it was filmed. No visible microphones, no odd camera shots. Good closeups. It felt very well thought out.

John G. · « **Reply #147 on:** July 12, 2017, 08:18:15 PM »

There were about 75 people in the theater, and everyone really seemed to be into the show. Plenty of laughs and, at the end, I heard a lot of sniffles.
