We had ground beef in gravy over instant mashed potatoes in school. My sister called it Gravy Train.

Gravy Train would be a good name for a cat.

Not my cat :))

Does anyone here remember all the fuss that was made over the possibility that computers wouldn't work once the year 2000 arrived?

It was called Y2K...and businesses, especially, freaked out over it.

Hard to believe that was more than 22 years ago!

And my laptop back then no longer works. Who said it was a hoax?

;D

I am quite pleased at how I'm doing today. No pain at all from yesterday's outpatient surgery, but I am VERY tired. When I've had these things in the past I allowed 4 days of recuperation -- and needed every bit of it. This time is easier.

Wonderful news.  Enjoy your rest without pain.

DR Jeanne - I'm sure you planned ahead and have food and all you need for the next few days. If not, there's always delivery!

Yes, I always have lots of preparation to do before I go into couch potato mode. I stocked up on food that I can heat up easily, but I want something different today--at least for lunch, so I've ordered from GrubHub.

I hope it was good.

It has been a very quiet, low-key day except for some phone calls I made regarding various medical appointments.  All is well.

Even though it's an hour later than it ought to be, theoretically, the day sure passes by quickly.

That said, the U.S. Senate passed a bill today that would make daylight savings time permanent.  If it is approved by all of Congress, it would become effective in November 2023.

Cool!

See if you still think it is cool during the darkest days of winter, if it passes.

Been listening to a wonderful recording of Mendelssohn's piano trios played by Emmanuel Ax, Yo-Yo Ma and Itzhak Perlman. Just inspired playing of two pieces that I guess I should have been familiar with but wasn't. I've heard both trios now twice through. Very peaceful.

Back from a productive rehearsal. Since I was missing two people, I spent the evening running all the group numbers and getting everyone used to the set and entering and exiting, so that was very helpful.

Naturally, Microsoft wants to do an update - every two weeks or so - I find it quite irritating but if you don't do it, then you just get pop-up reminders five times a day.

My computer hasn't needed an update for awhile...sometime last year, I think.

Earlier this evening, I was going through some papers and I found a gift certificate for a local business that sells (sold?) "Bamboo Clothing, Bedding, Towels and other items for a sustainable planet."
