Well, you've read the notes, the notes were in retrograde, and now it is time for you to post until the retro cows come home.

T.O.D.

I am not much of a trendsetter when it comes to food.  I do not like kale and I don't even know what quinoa is.

I am not even sure that George shouldn't be burned at the stake for putting cashews on pizza.

And don't worry...I won't ask, "Have you tried it?"  There are a LOT of things that I'll NEVER even try.

But I do love cashews.  Recently, I even got some cashew butter for the first time.

I, also, love cashews and I would probably try them on pizza.

I cancelled my Saturday flight which now look like I probably would not have left as I would have flown out of Miami.

We grew kale when I was growing up, so I've eaten it all my life. And st the pre-high holy days dinner, I went to Sunday, the kugel was made with quinoa, as she makes it every year, because it's how the hostess had it when she was a girl --and she's older than me.

As long as it isn't yogurt or cheesecake (or I guess some genetically modified frankenfood) I'm okay with it.

I have begun the laundry.  One of the washers is out of order and the other sounds on its last legs.

I thought I would be stuck here all day with the mail and waiting for the Fed Ex delivery.  I still have the Fed Ex and the laundry, so much of my day will be cleaning this apartment and putting things away.

The flight home was rather weird:
  1.  It was on time; usually I have a 2-3 hour delay.
  2.  The stewardess was really kind and helpful; I was her Special Needs traveler since I needed wheelchair assistance.
  3.  A Middle Eastern man sitting with his wife about four rows ahead of me became violently sick and was throwing up like mad.

I also learned that at 6:30, rather than spending a fortune for a taxi or $15.00 for the Port Authority bus, which I did and which took forever, I should have spent $1.75 and taken the MTA M60 nus to 106th and Broadwau.  I would have been home with more spare change earlier.  Well, next time!

I shouldn't jinx this by saying it, but I have never yet had the honor of being in the presence of a vomiting passenger.  Lordy.

And wow, who knew there was a bus running from LGA to the UWS?  I wouldn't have had a reason for knowing, but you may still color me amazed.

No rehearsal today, which is nice following my double header yesterday.  I do have to run up to the theater to help clear out the, um, "pit".  But that's no biggie.

Last Monday, Aug. 28, I mailed my Medicare and utilities checks.  The utilities usually clears in three days and there's been no sign of it.  The Medicare cleared last Thursday and I continue to be unamused.  The Postal Service is out to get me.
