Saturday afternoon greetings!  Today's winter weather phenomenon - freezing fog - kept Richard home from a church thing he was supposed to attend in the Dayton 'burbs.

I had to stop at the supermarket for a few things, and the parking lot was full. I thought maybe I missed a few months and it was the day before Thanksgiving. Nope, just people getting out and doing things for the first time all week.

If I can keep Annabelle under control.

Excerpt from Annabelle's diary:

Lots to accomplish today in the house reorganization department.
If I can keep the Maid under control.

I watched a couple of episodes of Documentary Now! on IFC.  They were pretty funny, although Bill Hader is not my cup of tea.

It is said that they do a parody of the documentary of the filming of the recording of the COMPANY cast album to be broadcast on February 20....I hope I remember to watch it.

I heard about that episode and I really want to see it!

Came home to the news that Grant's mom passed away this morning - totally expected.  99 years old, she'd stopped eating a few days ago, and when old folks do that it is saying clearly that they want to pass.  We were hoping she'd make it to 100 in August, because she would have come to Kritzerland that night, whose hundredth show that will be.  And of course, without her there would be no GEE, as she was the inspiration for the character in the first half of the book.  It's not about her life or anything, but if you read the first three words of the book, that is totally her and was what made me want to do the book.

Oh, no. :( BK, my condolences to you, and to Grant and her family.  But 99 years is a very impressive run.

The taxes are finished.  As an added bit of luck, the last 1099 I was waiting on arrived in today's mail.  That was a nice surprise.

In addition to losing MGM-HD, the relative number of HD movie channels on Comcast/Xfinity is shockingly low. Browsing through them, sometimes it feels like I’ve taken a trip back ten or fifteen years.

Our internet and phone service with them are exceptional. I wouldn’t even dream of shopping around in that regard. But there are times when I feel like their television offerings were better in the past.
