Apparently today is national zipper day.  I have learned they were invented in 1925, a fact I am sure I will immediately forget though I am very grateful for this invention.

I'm not caught up on posts, so I haven't a clue what's going on.

A Question for BK and anyone else:  have you ever had Schwan's Home Delivery?  They've been coming to my work since I started working there in the 1980s.  They're a little pricy, but not horribly so, and I've pretty much been quite satisfied with their food...especially their pizzas. :)

No, you're the only one I've ever heard mention Schwan's.

A couple of fun facts...the woman who plays Akhnaten's wife, J'Nai Bridges, made her Met debut in this opera, AND grew up in Tacoma, Washington!

DR VIXMOM you probably know this already......but if you put your stuffed peppers in a muffin tin they won't fall over as they bake.

I don’t bake my stuffed peppers, I use our family recipe which involves cooking them in a pot on the stovetop.

DR VIXMOM - the Dream-O-Matic 6000 says that your dream indicates that you are conflicted about working when others are not - but it is so embedded in your DNA that you cannot imagine NOT working.

You want to be helpful to others who sometimes do NOT want or appreciate your help and sometimes you wonder if it is worth the effort.

Yes, it is.  What they think or say is sometimes the opposite of what you feel.

You are not hurting anyone else by living your life as you wish - so you should NOT change what you are doing.  You can ignore the warning signs from Chicken Little - but be sure that you recognize the true origin of any such warnings this week.


Wow!  I thought it was from falling asleep in the recliner while vixdad watched crime shows!

When I went into work to have a couple of programs installed onto my work laptop, I saw that my copy of Bagley's DeSylva, Brown & Henderson had arrived! ;D

I also saw that a CD had arrived for a co-worker who doesn't drive.  He only lives a few miles from me, and since I had previously brought him another package, I offered to bring this one to him, too...and so I shall, now that Akhnaten is over.

Until later.

Akhnaten sounds like something I would have enjoyed. Maybe it'll be on the PBS website.

I am watching a Russian film called Prisoner of the Mountains. It's a political drama about the hatred between the Russians and the Chechens. Very harrowing. Engrossing.

Have spent hours finessing the singers and their tracks so it's all balanced correctly for Sunday - this is the part I knew would take some doing and that's proven correct.  We're getting there.  Ninety minutes to test 2 on Facebook and YouTube.  Links are a couple of pages back.

I watched on youtube. BK disappeared -- and so did the link -- before he was finished with the song.

On FB it kind of froze for a moment right at the end of the song. But I think it was all there on playback, maybe cutting off just a split second too soon.

But like I said last night, it was smooth and professional looking -- and sounding. Really nice. Let's hope it stays this way with more people and more variables involved.  :)
