Last night I had a radical idea. It embodied both an epiphany and a solution to a problem.

Since I've only seen one or two of Fellini's films, but I have those and several others right here, I've made the momentous decision to

...wait for it...

begin watching them.

And which did you begin with?

Haven’t begun yet. I got t-boned by a ferocious allergy attack after posting that, and it took nearly five hours before I was feeling real relief from the Benadryl. I would have begun this evening, but I know I won’t last through the first one which will be La dolce vita with a running time of almost three hours. I’ll be taking those I have in chronological order, and they are:

La dolce vita
8 1/2
Juliet of the Spirits
The Toby Dammit segment of Spirits of the Dead
Satyricon
Roma
Amarcord
And the Ship Sails On

When I get the set in the spring, I’ll go through everything again.

I know I’m - as of yet - missing some great earlier ones.

Hello, everyone.

This was supposed to be a quiet week and I was looking forward to catching up on a few things at a comfortable pace. It was not to be. Where does all this crap come from? An autoship order that shipped a week early and included a couple items that shouldn't be there. I got it straightened out, but it shouldn't have happened in the first place. Stuff like that. It's felt like an endless Mercury retrograde.

I went to the little mom&pop pharmacy today. Ever since Covid started they've kept their doors locked and no one (except staff) is allowed to enter. A strange way to do business, but it seems to be working for them. I bought what I needed, then went next door to the bagel bakery because how could I resist?

I've never heard of it as being Mexican, but it may be a regional thing.

You chose a lovely Christmas tree, Chas.

The first time I read that post I hadn't logged in, so there was no photo. Here is what the post said:

Here you go, still bare naked!

Tonight. Maybe. Things are crazy here. Soon.

I was wondering, What did I miss? One could imagine all sort of things!

All the Mexican restaurants in Mexican town Detroit (not sure if it was called that) all served it.

Watching an interesting documentary on Amazon Prime called "Gatsby in Connecticut." It's sort of a literary sleuthing story positing that the setting of Gatsby was actually inspired by Westport, CT (my old stomping ground) rather than Long Island.

I did work on project two for an hour - slow going, but it's coming along and is always surprising.

I don't know if it's traditional, but most sit-down Mexican restaurants (not fast-food places) that I've gone to have had it as a dessert option, too.

Watching the Broadway show on NBC. It’s a mixed show. Some good performances. Too many jukebox shows.

I set my DVR to record that, too.
