I apologize for being E & T last evening.  I fell asleep at about 7:30, and slept straight through until 5:30 a.m.

[John G.]

That sounds wonderful, TCB.

AHA!  I will receive a $16 per month raise in my SS check in January....that will be nice.....

I am so jealous.  I only got a $9.00 increase.

[Jrand74]

That's strange DR ELMORE.....maybe someone put in a good word for me.

[Jrand74]

ENCORE is not available on COMCAST ABC ON DEMAND - that's strange....it was on Sunday night.

Well so far, I got nothin'!  Are these notices coming by e- or snail-mail?

My notice came by mail two weeks ago.

I looked on Ticketmaster to see what Hamilton tickets are about selling for. They don't have comparable seats for the day I have tickets for, but the following weekend, they are selling for about $850 -- and mine are closer and center of the ones they have.

Oh shit.

Is my face red.

This was one of those things you have to tear open sixteen different ways in order to read it?  I looked it over and didn't think I saw anything that pertained directly to me.  And then, um.....

[ChasSmith]

Maybe I can log in online and find it.

I'm up, I'm up - have been since eleven - eight hours of sleep and just trying to catch up and finish choosing the damn songs.

[John G.]

I want latkes.

[elmore3003]

Since I gave to leave around 5:00, I have to tackle Thatch very shortly, administer his meds, do the same with Annabelle, and feed them.

[elmore3003]

On a more positive note, I finished the Overture for How To Succeed . . .  this afternoon.

[elmore3003]

And the meds are administered.  My kitties are not speaking to me.

[elmore3003]

I must begin my long bus trek to the East Side.

DR CHAS SMITH - snail mail - one side was talking about how much you could earn without a penalty, the other side had your new benefit amount.

If you multiply your current benefit by 2%, you'll probably get a pretty close estimate of your increase.

[John G.]

The delivery man brought three bottles of wine to the house today, a cab franc, a roussanne and a rose’ — red, white and pink.

[John G.]

Going to usher for someone named Tommy Emmanuel tonight, Australian guitarist. Half the show will be holiday music.

[John G.]

Speaking of holiday music, I got Reba McEntire’s Christmas album today from the library. She does a good version of Hard Candy Christmas. Makes me think she’d be a fine Miss Mona.

That was it, then.  Thank you for the info, DR Jrand67!

Had some scrambled eggs and onions in a tortilla for my main meal o' the day, and that leaves me room for snacks later, including perhaps some Godiva chocolates that just arrived from FJL and his ever-lovin' Skip.

[Jrand74]

Onions In a Tortilla is the title of my new mystery thriller novella.

DR George good luck at the vet.  I have never heard of a cat's hears rattling 

Well, her ears shouldn't rattle!  I brought her to the vet today and she was very well behaved until the vet had to get a couple of samples of the gunk in her ears. She has ear mites and there was pus and white blood cells and a lot of icky dark build-up in them.  They cleaned them out (probably the first time since ever) and gave me some stuff to put in there twice a day for the next couple of weeks to help with the infections.  They also gave her an antibiotic shot and put some Revolution on the back of her neck for the ear mites.  Fortunately, there was no evidence of any fleas!  I'll reapply that in a month, then once more in another month.  I scheduled a follow-up appointment on December 29.  Today's bill was $312.

[George]

As for the teeth that she has left (it looks like the others fell out on their own ), they'll either clean them or, after they take x-rays, they just might remove them all.  I guess there's some root decay.  Nothing was done about her teeth today, though.  If they extract, it'll be around $1000! She's old, but she might be in pain from her teeth, so we'll see what they say on the 29th.

[George]

Good luck to DC NEVE on her vet visit.....

Thanks, Jrand! 

[George]

Glad to hear that DR VIXMOM's mom made it home s/s.

Ditto!

[George]

Good luck to DC NEVE on her vet visit.....

Yes!  I hope that she is in fine fettle and that her first visit is not so financially debilitating as Thatch's and Annabelle's were.

Thanks, Larry!  I don't remember how much Thatch's and Annabelle's first visits were, but I know Neve will have them beat with any future teeth dealings.

[George]

And since we're so close...
