Well, you've read the notes, the notes wondered about the nectarines, and now it is time for you to post until the seeking nectarine cows come home.

I slept an hour later this morning. I needed the sleep, and, except for the cats. I had no reason to move at all. It was freezing in the apartment, and the bed was too warm and cozy.

Sondheim rhymed "nectarines" with "beans." So there's that. Or was it "greens"? Well, never mind, anyway...

I had strange dreams, the last being ne in which I was sleeping on my parents' couch in Ohio when a college friend and his girlfriend showed up to visit. I couldn't explain why I was sleeping on a sofa rather than my bed. The cats were with me, and then the friend, girlfriend, and I boarded a bus in Manhattan and we ended up in Toledo, Ohio, at the home where my goddaughter Emily grew up. The house was for sale; her father was moving to Chicago, which was where all of his four daughters had migrated, and he felt the house wasa too large sicne his wife had died. Then, Bob Emerson, who owned Theatrebooks, for whom I worked 1981-1983, showed up.

I have work today: I need to print some invoices and pay some bills. I hope to spend most of the day lying about with the cats.

In the middle of the night Thursday night, hoodlums broke into our building's underground parking garage, bashed in a vehicle window, hotwired it, and took off in the stolen vehicle for a joyride. The stolen vehicle being a specially equipped van for a quadriplegic who lives in our building. The stolen vehicle was in the adjacent parking spot to where our own car is parked. They also tried to jimmy the locked doors to the stairwells leading into the building itself.

The vehicle was found, abandoned, and has already been repaired and returned. But will the vandals try again?

Did you ever have a day like this?

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #19 on:** February 12, 2022, 05:05:37 AM »

I have zero idea where today may lead me, but I'm ready for it, sleep-wise.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #20 on:** February 12, 2022, 05:07:46 AM »

I am cautiously optimistic:

The sinus issues I have been having the past 5 months seem to be going away. And the loss of taste and smell which I have endured for at least 10 months seem to be lifting.

I am tasting things again, and last night, the smell of a cup of coffee brewing nearly knocked me for a loop.

It's not 100 percent, but it's reappearing. I could not BE more relieved.

I read this a couple of times before I read it correctly. I kept thinking you said you would be "lying about the cats" and I couldn't imagine what lies you might be concocting.

Sorry about that!

Slept very well, which is surprising because of sitting out in Mother Nature last night. I need my decongestant this morning, but I’m still breathing.
