Well, you've read the notes, the notes were lackadaisical, and now it is time for you to post until the lackadaisical cows come home.

I read a bit of my most entertaining mytstery until my eyes gave out - because of the cataracts, after reading a bit, I eventually reach a point where the print no longer registers as print - and I decided to go to bed.b I brushed the cats and turned out the lights around 8:15. I slept for what seemed hours, and when I checked the clock it was only 11:30. I had one long dream involving my brother Macbeth, the Drama Book Shop, my friend Mimi Bessette at a performance or preview matinee of Macbeth starring Christopher Plummer and Zoe Caldwell, and a frustrated attempt to deliver a check. It all made sense several hours ago.

I have the feeling I'm thinking about my brothers because this is - hopefully! - the week to settle the question of the Ohio property purchasers vs the City of Middletown.

BK, I do not recall your saying much, when you speak about your writing, about painting yourself into corners, so I found that very interesting in today's notes. I admire the creativity and ease with which you write.

Today, I am meeting Phil Chan for breakfast at 10:00. Phil is the creative partner with my friend Doug Fullington on this ballet for Indiana University. Much as I hate going out today, too hot and way too humid, I look forward to meeting him.

I think it was TCB who asked what a bialy is. It’s related to the bagel and is apparently more commonly found in the northeast.

They’re a bit fussier to slice, being smaller and differently shaped, but they’re very good and have a great texture, especially (IMO) toasted with butter.

I don’t know why that link isn’t pasting properly, but just confirm “bialy (bread)” and it should go to the Wiki page.

Also, just go to Google Images and type in bialy.

Good luck with the fence vibes for DR Jrand71!

And with the fence, should he decide to show up, too.

The weather here is perfectly fine right now.  It's sunny and 73 degrees.  Storms are called for later in the day.  And the humidity is 83%.

Shucks and darn!   I hate it when my clothes stick to me outdoors.

I have two appointments this week:

Physical therapy tomorrow morning at the VA in Augusta, plus a visit to the lab there for blood work for my Thursday morning appointment at the VA in Aiken. This appointment was previously scheduled for September 2, but I got a message last week telling me there was an opening for the 28th and did I want it.  I said yes, but probably should not have.

Oh, well.
