Thirty-two years later, my sister still talks about them as if their latest gig were last week.

Cute.

I am looking at a dusting of snow out there and thinking ice when I leave tomorrow.

Today, the Olympia chapter of PFLAG is having an Anti-Valentine’s Day Pamper Yourself Event.  My sister is on the board and will be making the smoothies with her fairly new Vitamix.  When she bought it a couple of years ago, she gave me her older Vitamix, so I've been volunteered to help make the smoothies.  I haven't used it very much, but it'll need to be cleaned.  It's been sitting on my kitchen counter for quite a while collecting dust. ::) I won't have to be there until the afternoon, so I'll get to sleep in this morning before I have to clean the Vitamix.

;)

Well, the PFLAG event went well.  About 30 or so people attended.  There were massages, manicures and pedicures, facials, and some people played Cards Against Humanity.  There was plenty of food for people to eat, and the smoothies were enjoyed (we made two different kinds).  Someone on the PFLAG board brought a lasagna 2-pack from Costco and only one was eaten.  I took home the second one because no one else wanted to take any of it home. :D Pretty much everything else was eaten.  A good time was had by all.

Maybe it's my fear that 8 year-old Chester, who's been returned twice by shitty owners to Animal Control, will not survive the third wait for a new home or that fact that he's so adorable in his sweater, but I really want to rescue this cat and save him.



So cute!  Hopefully, he'll really get a forever home and soon!

It's been a bad morning.  After my bath, I planned to fill the tub with enough cold water to rinse it out, since Annabelle likes to drink the leaky drops in the drain.  I got distracted and forgot about it until Val knocked on my door to see if my bathroom ceiling was leaking like those in 1C and 2C.  The tub was overflowing and there was at least an inch of water on the floor.  It's mopped up and tomorrow when all the wet towels in the tub have dried some, I will do laundry.

I've been down to my neighbors to apologize.  How embarrassing.

Oh, no! :o Hopefully, your clean-up wasn't too difficult.

It appears to be raining snow.

It was really snowing this morning when I finally got up.  There was snow on the ground and even my car!  It wasn't too easy to scrape off.  It froze after it landed on my car, which fortunately wasn't completely covered.

As "they" say,  "No Good Deed Goes Unpunished."   --Friday I took Metro to the station where I park my car.  I got to my car and a young guy next to me was trying to charge his battery and having no luck.  He asked if I had jumper cables.  I said I did and gave them to him to connect to both cars.   His car started right away, he thanked me and I went on my way.  When I got home I noticed that the "check engine" light was on.  Somehow I think it was related to the battery charging.

Car vibes this is minor.  Maybe it just needs a quick reset.

~~~Ditto and Ditto!!~~~

Finished proofing - found a missing period, and will run a few really minor things by Muse Margaret in the morning, then hopefully Grant and I can wrap this up and go have a nice lunch.

Saw a play - not a very good play at that and exacerbated by some very strange acting choices and direction.

The only name in the cast (if you can call him that) was Paolo Montalban.  He played the Prince in the TV version of CINDERELLA starring Brandy.

The female lead was really terrific.  Her name is Kendra Kassebaum.  She was in the Broadway production of COME FROM AWAY.

Of course, she was first in the Seattle Rep production of COME FROM AWAY, which became the Broadway cast (well, most of it).

Her version of "Winner Takes It All" literally stopped the show.

Also in the cast is Kristin Burch.  She was Baby June when I did Gypsy here in Olympia, more than 20 years ago (she has no idea who I am).

Her husband is Matt Posner.  We were both in TAO's production of Reefer Madness.  He also works at the 5th Avenue Theatre.  He was in the musical version of Secondhand Lions that I saw there a few years ago.

Carolyn was Edna in the first OFT production of Cinder Edna, where I ran the sound.

What's funny us how many husbands and wives can say that they both played lead characters named Edna? :))
