Well, you've read the notes, the notes were all over the place, and now it is time for you to post until the all over the place cows come home.

Today, I'll leave work early and go to my mom's to visit with Margita and Judy, and have dinner.  That's why I made the mini-cheesecakes.  These didn't turn out quite right, though.  I had one and it was kind of spongy, not dense and firm the way they should be. :-\ Oh, well.  It tasted good, just not exactly the right texture.  They will, of course, firm up after being in the fridge all night, but still, they won't be the same as when they're the way they're supposed to be.

Margita's friend Laura, and Judy's two adult daughters will also be there tonight.  I hope no one's infected with Covid!  Of course, if anyone would be showing symptoms, they wouldn't be there.  But there's no way to know if they're positive but asymptomatic.  I'm bringing my mask, just in case.

And now, I need to get to sleep.  I want to see if I can get to work a little earlier so that I don't have to use as much vacation time. 

Good night, Jane, and Have a good day, all!

I stayed up too late.  I thought the debate was beginning at 8:00, not 9:00, and I wasn't in bed till after 11:00.  This will be a long day.  I have to finish cleaning out the fridge and getting as much out ofd the way for the service men that I can.  I have plenty of emptied cans and jars to schlep to the basement as well.

The problems with the serial lying Fat Orange Slug for me are these: he's so dishonest I never believe a thing he says and having to listen to strings of lies coming from a monotonous, dead voice is an ordeal that no human should ever suffer. I suspect some of that was caused by a tiny cautionary gray cell trying to keep an uncontrollable superego in check. I did keep waiting for his inner narcissistic megalomaniac to take over, and it happened later than I expected it to.  Still, it did happen.

So, I went to their site, which confirms they received my ballot on Oct. 16, but it will not let me apply for another ballot and it says nothing about any problem.

Kitty cleanup is over.  I have much to accomplish this morning,  I'm hoping the new fridge is delivered closer to noon than to 5:00.

Elmore, I'd be very wary of that email. I would think that anything that comes from the elections department would come from a .gov email address.

I would like to watch Totally Under Control because it was made by people who graduated from the same college as I did. I fear I won't be able to stomach it, though, for the same reason I did not watch any of the debates. Just hearing 45's voice is triggering for me.

I hear your, DR elmore3003. I am just back from schlepping all the recycling to our building's basement. I have to do it very early on Friday morning; otherwise, the bins are full for the next week.

I am thrilled with the arrival of my new toy: a set of bamboo toast tongs. It has a built-in magnet so I can keep them handy near the toaster.

No more burnt fingers!

No, the site is good. This site says so: https://absenteeballot.elections.ny.gov
Enter for county "New York (Manhattan)" and it tells you to go to this site:
https://nycabsentee.com/tracking the same in my email.
