That's pretty cool about the interview today!  Since I'm home (even if I'm working), I should be able to watch/listen to it.

Yesterday was one of the worst and most humiliating days of my life. I can only hope today is much better.

I woke this morning to Annabelle vomiting on the floor and Stella shredding paper towels. And I had a truly rotten night of sleep.

I am pleased to report that I had 7-plus hours of sleep.

That's the best in quite some time.

Big damned nor'easter heading our way, for Friday (probably pm) and all day Saturday.

Hell's bells.

Ugh.  Ugh.  Ugh.

Another night with two crazy dreams, one at 2:50 am, the other sometime early this morning.

Not as big and crazy as the night before, though. But stuff, I swear, I don't know how or where I come up with it.

People have been telling me I'd like this, so yesterday, finally, a few years after the fact, I picked up Kristi's DVD set of The Orville Season 1 and watched the first three episodes.

And yes, I do like it. Very much. I shall watch another three today.

Also -- those who said it wouldn't matter if you haven't been a Trekkie and you don't have to know anything about Star Trek to appreciate this (because I asked) -- they're right. I never have been of that persuasion, and yes I can recognize the basic setup of the show, but after that, everything stands on its own and is very enjoyable.

I have a tab open for BK's interview this evening (5pm right coast time), but I see that all of this guy's interview videos are there to watch, so if I need to be out shopping or something right then, it can be seen later.

Those Hewlett Packard bastards have raised the price of their ink cartridges for my printer from $39.95 to 59.95. The total cost to order one? $65.00+

I have a large Epson color inkjet printer that I keep putting off replacing the cartridges for because every time I look at the price I say "Hell with it. Later."

Definitely. I’m thinking rugby.

TCB, you asked why I thought parts of Tango Shalom were embarrassing. The ethnic humor was too stereotypical (all blacks are into rap and are Muslims and hector white people on the sidewalk while being lazy). Plus, too much of it was sloppily staged, so that some of the scenes didn’t rise to a sitcom level.

I am waiting for my Canon printer to bite the dust so that I can get one of those Epson printers.....but I need a SMALL one.  Not much room on my desk.
