STRANGLING A WILDEBEEST

Well, you've read the notes, the notes were especially irritating to the wildebeest, and now it is time for you to post until the strangled cows come home.

Good luck with getting the CD out, BK.  Things like that have happened to me and usually I can just unplug the device and plug it back in.  As soon as it's plugged back in, I hit the eject button and that not every single time, but more often than not, gets the device to eject.

And while ketchuping on yesterday's notes, I realized that Larry has reached a milestone!  He's slightly past that, but it deserves to be celebrated! ;D

Today, I'm going to go candy shopping...not for Halloween, though.  One of my and my sister's two aunts who live in California is having a birthday next month, and we like to send both of them their favorite candies so that they can celebrate together.  I'll go to both the Tumwater and Lacye CHEF’STORE (formerly Cash & Carry) stores (if necessary) to see what they have, and maybe Costco, but I also have some Bit·O·Honey in my Amazon shopping card, just in case no one locally has some.  I had to order it online last year because I couldn't find any in the stores here.

Thanks for posting that, DR George! I never pay attention to how many posts I've made.

I have no major plans for today. This morning I must book tomorrow's Access-A-Ride, and then I will see where the day takes me.

I’m not a fan of scary movies so I’ve missed most of the movies that are “classics”

Had a weird dream last night involving volunteering at a place that offered the new malaria vaccine. No one showed up to receive it. Someone else working there was so upset, he killed himself before anyone could stop him.

I received this shitty news via an automatic phone call at 8:00, so I have no further information as to why or how to proceed. I sent my regular caretaker a message but there will be no response before tomorrow at the earliest. So tomorrow I also have to deal with myh urologist and the Lenox Hill Radiology Dept. At the moment I'm seriously considering slitting my wrists in the tub.

And to add insult to injury, I just stepped in cat vomit in my bare feet.

Cat vomit.  Oy. 

The ones from Poe we used to discover in our bare feet were the nearly invisible spots that he'd invariably leave on the tile floor, which you'd step in and nearly go sliding first thing in the morning when all you wanted to accomplish was navigating your way to the kitchen for a much needed cup of coffee.

Well, my day of fatigue has passed following a pretty solid night of sleep. At least I knew what to expect from the booster shot, which was pretty much what shot #2 back in March had left me with -- just a complete lack of energy the next day. I did accomplish a pretty good afternoon on the couch watching movies, a completely random selection consisting of:

The Day the Earth Caught Fire (1961)
The Woman Who Came Back (1945)
It! The Terror from Beyond Space (1958)
