Amazon Fresh has arrived, and the cats have six cartons to play in. I wish they would take them to the basement for me.

Today so far I have made: potato salad (my DIL's request), mashed potatoes, cornbread for the stuffing, and the vanilla wafer crust for a cheesecake. I'm waiting for the cream cheese to warm up a bit.

I just put my life in my hands again to schedule Access-A-Ride for Friday morning's MRI. The opnly good thing I can say about them at the moment is their phone staff is quite wonderful. I wish the service were as well.

I loved Rent, which I saw twice with nearly all the original cast - I missed Adam Pascal both times - and saw it later in hte run with replacements. I cannot remember if I saw it 4 or 54 times, and I played the CD to death when it was first released. I went to it the first time, prepared to hate, and it caught me yp and moved me to tears. I am really looking forward to seeing Tick, Tick . . . Boom.

An actor touring in Jesus Christ Superstar has been arrested as part of the Oath Keepers storming the capitol on Jan. 6. Must be non-Equity.

Rent was more of a cerebral appreciation than something that touched my heart. I think I was more taken with Larsen’s story.

I don't think so.  We haven't talked about it, though.

DR TCB it was Keith who steered me in the opposite direction of Voodoo Donuts ;D  It would have been a few blocks out of our way, and then you never know how long the line will be. Plus I really did not need to eat a donut.

Keith would not drive to Portland for donuts.

That's pretty much how I felt. I'm sorry I didn't go to see Rent in NYC because it might have grabbed me a little more than subsequent attempts have. I've also kicked myself because friend Robin de Jesus was in it late in the run, and that was his start on Broadway. He's got a great part in Tick Tick, though, which is very gratifying to see.

Has anyone read Charles Portis, who wrote True Grit?

I read Tru Grit but nothing else by him.

Incredible, isn't it? I know a few people who fit right in to that scenario.

Meanwhile, I am here to tell you that as of noon today, the grocery stores are officially mobbed. Please don't ask me how I know that.

(I only wanted three little things, only one of which had anything to do with Thanksgiving.)

I can but it is rude.  If your son is working won't his wife and your grandson still go to your home for Thanksgiving?

I wasn't paying attention when the needle for the contrast iv was put in my vein this morning before my MRI.  They also took some blood for a Creatinine test.  I only know because I received an email the results were available to read.  I can't believe I didn't notice-lol

MRI's have greatly improved since my first one when DR Penny accompanied me to the NIH.  I was really glad to have her there while I vented how horrible it was.

Back then it took about an hour, without being able to move, and everything about the table was uncomfortable.  I had no sense of time as the person doing it never spoke to me.  My body was in a lot of pain during and after the test.

Today it took only 20 minutes on a fairly comfortable table.  Only the last 5 minutes were a slight problem and that was only due to my bad shoulder.  The rest of me was fine not moving.
