Topic of the Day:  I've had some really good food experiences during this year, mostly recently with all the goodies that people have brought in to work, but I'll have to think about a "favorite" food experience.

Well, I slept well last night.  I woke around midnight and slept until some time after 5:00 when Annabelle crawled under the blankets with me. Stella was either well-behaved last night or I wil find later the mischief that occupied her.

Today is a quiet day. Yesterday, I had my lab work and then I returned home to lug 40 lbs of kitty litter and 13 lbs of Meow Mix up to my apartment from the lobby.

BK. given your affection for Hänsel und Gretel, I'm surprised you haven't moved on to his lesser known opera. It's not nearly as fun as H&G.

DR George, your mother was really lucky yesterday.  I'm happy the thief was caught.

Why let go? We have a bit to go before Twelfth Night.

Had an irritating dream where I had to make a gingerbread team display for work and include all of the team members. It had to be holiday themed, and I have someone on my team who doesn’t observe holidays. It was very stressful.

Yes!  I just meant that the streaming and special holiday channels are starting to disappear.      :-X

Oh no, DR Jrand70!  I am sorry.  I am sure by now you have mastered the withering glare. May it succeed forthwith.

I imagine it will still be Christmas on the Hallmark Channel for quite some time yet.

Jane, I do qualify for phase 1B, but I don’t think I’ll get the vaccine until I get back to Texas. 1A is for emergency workers and the elderly.

I just put away my Fairway grocery delivery, and I will lie down for an hour with the cats before I start moving again.

I woke up at 3:30 in the a.m. for no apparent reason at all, and didn't get back to sleep till sometime around five. In addition to feeling logy from that, I also feel it could be a light allergy day, so I'm hoping to nip that in the bud and carry on. I'll take a Benadryl tonight to get that feeling out of my system and get a more solid sleep.

BK asked where we're getting the free Met Opera streams.

Go to this page:  https://www.metopera.org/user-information/nightly-met-opera-streams/

Scroll down to where they list what's playing this week. Sometimes they'll have more than one week's listing up, so check the dates. They've been into "themes" lately and this is "Pavarotti Week". Each opera is available for about 23 hours.

I don't know if they've streamed the Renée Fleming Rusalka. If they do, I want to see it. I know they've shown the more recent "Live in HD" production from a couple of years ago.
