Yesterday was fun, but I'm glad my 2 book groups don't always meet on the same day.

DR JANE she is NOT interested in hearing anyone else talk about anything....and she is so hard headed and self important, that words would be wasted and dismissed....

DR JRand67, be kind when she falls.  It may be difficult.

Sorry about the car break-in, BK. Creepy feeling having a sanctuary violated.

The day I moved into this apartment, July 13, 1980, it was hot.  I was sweating so badly my glasses kept slipping off my nose, and it was hell.  The next day, Monday, I learned it was 104 F.  If I'd known, I might have told my Drama Book Shop friends helping me, I'll lie here; drive the van over me.

My glasses are always slipping off of my nose, but I know what you mean about the heat making it almost impossible to keep them up.

Well, &%#$, FedEx just delivered our new bedside tables and one of them is damaged.  Photos have been taken and emailed to Levenger customer service, per my phone conversation with Ashley.

At first I read that as Ashley furniture vs a woman named Ashley.  I hope Levenger is better at fixing problems than Ashley was.  Document every conversation and good luck!

Sad day at West 82nd Street: Val has given his two-week notice.  I was not surprised.

The Duck Boat tragedy really made me flash back on when I took the Duck tour in Pittsburgh.  The disappointment on the vehicle was very strong when it was clear the condition of the water strongly suggested the on-the-water part of the ride should be skipped that afternoon.  For me and my friend, we were enjoying the sights of the city (much nicer than we'd expected), so we didn't mind missing the water part if it was a question - but for so many, the water part was why they chose the Duck Tour over a different sightseeing tour.  The business pressure of passenger disappointment could have been a factor in the tragic decision, but that's only from what I felt from having been on a similar ride in another city.  :(

There are Duck Boat tours in Seattle and three years ago, one had an axle break while on a bridge and five people died.

I stayed propped up in bed for almost an hour before I felt calm enough to get out of bed.
Nick is very crippled up this morning.
