Well, you've read the notes, the notes spoke of necessary and needed respite and relief, and now it is time for you to post until the relieved cows come home.

The temperatures have risen, and it's too warm in the apartment now.  So, I slept very poorly last night.  I dreamed that I was in college about to take a music final.  Tom Cruise, an actor I really detest, made an appearance in another. Annabelle and Thatch joined me around 3:00, and Thatch spent the next four hours jumping in and out of bed, lying down for a few minutes, then running off to play.  He's like aq hyper-active child.

I expected to leave for City Center around 9:30, but Joshie sent me an email that he will be stuck at home this morning with service men and internet problems.  I may do some laundry.

SERVICE MEN AND INTERNET PROBLEMS - sounds like a possible title for a special-interest mature audience film, maybe a modern "THE PIZZA BOY, HE DELIVERS"

As I post this, we are within an hour or so of reaching - and then exceeding - 32 degrees F.

F is for Freezing.

This will be for the first time in ... how many days, I don't know.  A couple of weeks, easily.

Today I must drive down to New Haven to pick up my music for Into the Woods.  The show is two months away, but I want to get the keyboard programmed and make sure I can play it all effortlessly.  Hard to believe, but this will be my first time.  Oh, I've "played" it, in auditions and even subbing for rehearsals, but for some reason - for me - this score has been the most nightmarish Sondheim to sightread and play halfway decently without thorough study.  Probably just me, but that's the way it is, and I intend to finally shake the curse.

No good deed goes unpunished.  The washer containing a lot of water-soaked towels died just before the spin cycle, claiming it was unbalanced.  So, I had to put all the towels into the dryer and God knows how long it will take for them to dry.  I'm expecting two hours minimum.  This really pisses me off.

Oy!

Does it work with these machines to take everything out and simply reload it?  You can "fix" that problem in home machines sometimes.

Is that with or without the chill factor?

No.  You need to disconnect for 30 minutes for the washer to reset. Then hope all is well.

Tuesday morning greetings!  I have a routine appointment this afternon with my cardiologist, who I usually see at his office just a few blocks from our home.  However, that office has been flooded and today he's seeing patients in their West Chester facility instead.  It's in an area where I frequently shop, so I'll be able to do a few errands as well.

The laundry is dry. Tomorrow I will finish up the pileup of clothes and bedding.  I'm waiting to hear from Joshie about heading down to City Center.
