I hope our choreographer doesn't read your post DR FJL.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

What's cool about the CD is that it's not just a picture of a felt flower pot, the flower pot and the flowers are actually made of felt (and fake jewels in the center of each flower) and glued to the cover!  It's really cute...and a great recording!

Back from picking up packages and a chili, cheese, and onion hot dog.  Before that I did work at the piano and chose a song.

I saw my therapist, Erik, today about my right arm, which has been bothering me for weeks. I don't think it's anything more than a simple strain, but I'm right-handed and I've no doubt I stress it throughout the day in little ways.

Jeanne has NOT read GEE, mainly because she's so busy I haven't been able to get her a copy, like that's an excuse.

Erik is a very serious, very buttoned-up kind of guy, so I was surprised when he started telling jokes. That's kind of an oxymoron in itself. My favorite:

What do you call an alligator who wears a vest?




















An inVESTigator!

Quite right, Bruce. Not having a copy is no excuse at all!

And what DR Jeanne has been busy with has been medical and dental appointments, and we all know how much fun THEY are!

Glad to hear The Vixter is doing OK.

I hope she's able to find a good deal on another car.

BK mentioned UNDERWORLD U.S.A.  I still have to finish that one!  (Shameful.)

After hearing so many good comments about the AMC series THE TERROR, I made the commitment to it last night by watching the first two episodes.  It’s pretty great so far, and I’m told it only gets better.  But I’m a sucker for all things Arctic (and Antarctic) like this.

I need to get some music playing here.  Don’t know what yet.

If you like Arctic settings, did you see FORTITUDE? It's an interesting mystery series that takes place in the Arctic. Very well done, I thought.

Perhaps you could incorporate some speed metal into your production of Annie, JRAND.

Maybe metal can be snuck into "It's a Hard Rock Life."

Friday afternoon greetings!  It's a "low energy" day for me, too.  I intentionally left my calendar blank for today and even have dinner lined up - homemade pizza.  So far, I've roasted a new supply of almonds, pre-baked our pizza crusts, and read quite a bit of Clementine: The Life of Mrs. Winston Churchill.  Watching Darkest Hour last week made me want to read the book some of my friends had raved about last year.

Clemmie does indeed sound like an interesting character. Not just in DARKEST HOUR, but in CHURCHILL'S SECRET, too.

Speaking of low energy, last week I mentioned to a friend who's a telephone psychic that I was feeling rather drained. His response was, "Everyone is!" He said he'd had call after call for the past week of people saying how tired and drained they felt. Change of seasons? New flu strain? Pollen? Heavenly activity?

Yes I do, and I hadn't heard of that one.  Thanks, DR Jeanne.

Yesterday was cold and extremely windy.  Today it's in the high 90s.

Since the other car ran away and since her car is literally 2 years older than she, and has a book value of 2 bits there will be no insurance
