Well, you've read the notes, the notes were stuffed and spoke of dance belts, and now it is time for you to post until until the dance belt-wearing cows come home.

Good morning, all!

It was a restless night. Annabelle seems very happy with her new sleeping location next to me, and I am very happy to find her purring away the night with me while Thatch and Stella come and go with their whims.

I had an upsetting dream that seemed to be set in this period and also in an earlier one, somewhere west of the Mississippi. It was about a conflict between a town and a religious group, perhaps Mormons, and I was in the middle pushing a live and let live policy. I woke when the opposition led by a brass band attacked the "church," which looked like an renovated office building.

BK, I'm not surprised that Hollywood and the Hays office would suppress any sign of sexuality from male dancers in movie musicals of the 1940s and 50s. A woman';s cleavage was one thing; a man's crotch another.

My best friend in college, David James, was a NYC costumer in the 1970s. He designed several ballets for the Joffrey and Harkness Ballet companies and he told me that most male dancers stuff their dance belts with powder puffs, the quantity depending on their vanity and the choreographer's inclination.

I think I will attempt to bring up that carton of litter this morning. The remainder of my day will depend on the success of that project.

A batch of brownie bites just came out of the oven, and now a pan of gluten-free brownies is baking.

Yes, it is before 6 a.m. here.

The pastor's last day is today, and I want to give him a nice send-off, snack-wise.

Nothing like putting unnecessary pressure on one's self, right?

Quite admirable, if you ask me.

No cherpumple?

No croquembouche?

No kransekake?

I'm sure whatever you serve will be delightful, DR Laura.

Turkey Dinner?

Is that what the young folks are calling it, these days?

Morning grocery delivery dispached.

I woke up in a panic, thinking I might have slept through my delivery window, but all was fine, other than an unnecessary adrenaline rush.

Hey, DR Laura - maybe you should try these:

Perfectly Pillowy cinnamon rolls:

They're so perfectly pillowy, in fact, that Mike Lindell secretly uses them instead of his own product.

Kitty cleanup is over, and the 40lbs of litter sit just outside my door in the hall.

yes, I managed to bring it up, but I will take a long break before dragging it into the apartment and getting it into the bathroom.

Laura · « **Reply #24 on:** April 25, 2021, 06:42:43 AM »

I was hoping someone would help you with that.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #25 on:** April 25, 2021, 06:43:44 AM »

I don't know the rules of etiquette re having a super in NYC, but I'm guessing that having help with a heavy package isn't the kind of thing you can normally ask them for? I can't help but think of Val, and would he not have brought that thing right up to you days ago?

Laura · « **Reply #26 on:** April 25, 2021, 06:44:58 AM »

Crazy me, I would think delivering it to your door would be the responsibility of the delivery driver. But then I live in the suburbs.

No, that doesn't happen at any apartment or condo I've lived in, anywhere. Everything gets dropped at the central mail place for the building.
