FIVE!!!!!

I'm up, I'm up - was up for an hour at five-thirty, but back asleep an hour later for a total of nine and a half hours of good sleep.

From DR John:

I started Emily St. John Mandel’s Sea of Tranquility, but it’s so short, I’ll be finished before I know it.

Just before reading this I had downloaded the book from the library.  I love the title and hope I enjoy the book.  While I thought Station Eleven was great I couldn't finish The Glass Hotel.

It was violent at a time I couldn’t take any violence, but I liked it overall. No Station Eleven.

It is hard to read about wars and violence right now.  No, as in you didn't like Station Eleven or didn't read it?

I was intrigued by DR John G.'s posting last night about needing a book to read. I would have thought his nightstand has about 25 books waiting. With more on the floor.

There is SO MUCH STUPID out there in Edgefield County that I sometimes feel I might explode.

It's all political, of course....and it centers on right-wing lies and rumors and myths that folks here take as gospel.

Did you know, for instance, that President Biden's cancellation of the Keystone Pipeline deprived Native Americans of billions of dollars?  And that it was Trump's right to authorize the use of Native American lands because they are FEDERAL property?

I didn't, either.  And none of it is true.  Trump declared Eminent Domain and TOOK the property.  None of the oil that the pipeline delivered would have benefitted our country, but it would have provided jobs.  Oh, well. 

[Ron Pulliam]

Rant over.

Sigh.

The weather did not devolve into rain today.

Actually got some sunshine this afternoon.

Tomorrow will be beautiful with a high near 80 degrees around the region.

Your point? 35 is more like it.

I loved Station Eleven. Glass Hotel couldn’t hold a candle to it.

Thank you for clarifying.  Now what about Sea of Tranquility?  I read it can be difficult getting into it.  If I don't do so quickly I am not sure I will hang around long.

Tonight & tomorrow is the 110th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic.

I have a young cousin who cannot read anything but "printed" words.  He has never been taught cursive.

How young is your cousin?  There's a guy on YouTube whose channel I follow and he's in his early 30s.  He gets mail from viewers but he confesses that he can't read cursive if the viewers send hand-written notes to him.  You'd think he would've learned, but nope.

TOD:   I have never had a "remarkable" Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich that would make it a favorite.

Messy is the experience I have had with a couple of them, but that was many, many, MANY (well, maybe not THAT many) years ago.

I don't care for Philly Cheese Steak Sandwiches, but the local Red Wagon has a Chicken Cheese Steak Sandwich that's really good.

DR vixmom:  I love "Into the Woods".  It's one of my favorites of Sondheim's scores.

Mine, too.

[George]

It's snowing.

It was hailing a LOT for a short while, but it's stopped.

Does the Spanish Flea lead to the Spanish Panic?

Tango has a step called the Spanish Drag.

There's also the Vatican Rag.

Today, I had my semi-annual dental appointment, so I got all my time in.  Now I get to leave early so I'm off to rehearsal!

Until later!

I can read cursive, but I never learned to write in cursive properly. I block print.

[singdaw]

Yep, I'm a blockhead.
