[Laura]

Good morning.

[Laura]

My take on pronouns:

If someone is speaking to me, they would say "You."  If someone  is talking about me (which would likely be outside my presence), said person would use "she" or "her."  I wouldn't be aware of which pronouns were being used.

[Laura]

Also, I see people putting their preferred pronouns with their Zoom names.

Thursday!

PROPERTY SELLING VIBES FOR DR ELMORE.

[Jrand74]

Feel better vibes for DR TCB.

[Jrand74]

Kind of a quiet day today - so far - and that's OKAY!

I have to write the article for the website about The Miracle Worker....but that won't take too long.....just so many names!

[Jane]

DR Iris, I am sorry about your ignored construction hours and inconsiderate neighbors.  Here people are warned, and then fined.

[Jane]

From Iris:

I will look into Glycine.

I still think it has helped, yet I was awake last night between 2:00 & 5:00.  At least I slept until 7:45 which is late for me.

[Jane]

DR Singdaw I don't think it can hurt.

[Jane]

From TCB:

You know, I am wondering if that is the confusion around my doctors. Dr. McCaleb was shocked when I said that the doctor at the pain clinic didn’t order x-rays for the pain in my hand.  I am going to a “pain clinic” and he is thinking it more like the PB&J that Iris was talking about.

Can you communicate on-line with your doctor?  Be sure to let him know exactly what they do there and ask about seeing a physiatrist.

[Jane]

From TCB:

...and all anyone could talk about was how far away my house was.

[Jane]

My pain level yesterday was much lower than the days before.

Thank goodness.

[Jane]

Oh, George and Jane; Sharry’s dog Fraser is doing better.

Thank you for letting us know.  I kept checking Facebook to see if she said anything.

Who is Amanda Kruger?

Here's their IMDb bio:

Amanda is a non binary actor, singer, and activist. Passionate about visibility and inclusion, they are eager to break down gender barriers and have often sought to encourage productions to look past the binary. Born in Vermont, Amanda ultimately grew up all over New England. They have worked as a professional Wrangler at the HF Bar Ranch in Saddlestring, Wyoming, continuing their work with horses in Los Angeles training and rehabilitating rescue horses. Amanda has booked television roles in the CW's 90210 and Nick Jr.'s The Fresh Beat Band. They have continued to perform regularly in theatre at Rockwell Table & Stage in Los Feliz, both Edinburgh and NYC Fringe festivals , and the world tour of new musical, Land of Smiles.

See.  I would have already pissed her off because I asked “Who is” rather than, “Who are”

But you would have pissed them off even more by referring to them as "her."

Oh God, I can’t win.

[Jane]

I understand why people want their pronouns. But my old-fashioned brain is having a hard time adjusting. Not for any political reason.

Same here, though I don't understand why they expect people to find this easy. 

[Jane]

This morning, my left hand feels like it was run over with a steam roller.

 

[Jane]

I think I have found my book book to write. It’s set in Scotland (as was The Second Chances Bookshop and Diary of a Bookseller). It must involve someone inheriting property where they don’t live (see most). Their personal life is at a crossroads. They have to bring life back to something while it brings life back to them. The twist this time will be it’s a children’s bookstore. And it’ll be titled The Wee Bairn Book Barn.

  I love it.

[George]

Have fun, George.

Thanks, John...I think.

[singdaw]

There are all kinds of wearable devices in multiple price ranges that claim to allay nausea. I don't know how they work or if they are effective.

[singdaw]

DR George:  a day without fun is no fun.     

[singdaw]

I think I read that on a fortune cookie once.

[singdaw]

I am very glad to hear that DR John G. carries around extra clams.

[singdaw]

Relieved, in fact.

[singdaw]

The sun is emerging.

Today is Day 1 of the Minnesota State Fair.
