It’s Reformation Sunday in the ELCA ( Evangelical Lutheran Church of America) church calendar so we are all supposed to wear red to church.

Happy Reformation, Vixmom. I forgot to wear red.

Happy Reformation, John!

There’s going to be some more experimentation with the firmness and elevation of foot and head, but overall it was a success

Is this a euphemism?

I'm trying out some newv oatmeal cookies: raisins are great, the cookie is soft and very chewable, but there's little to no flavor!

Kitty cleanup is over, and the bed has been winterized and made. Three helpful cats who wanted to be of assistance were no help atv all. Thatch stayed out of the way, Annabelle preferred to sit in the window and watch the hurly burly on 82nd Street, and Stella chased a bottle cap. Yet . . . whenever I needed to move or accomplish something like not stumble over the things on the floor, they were suddenly at me feet asnd in the way.

Go figure.

I would swear that 7/8 of my emails are election requests for money or my vote. I will be so happy after Nov. 9.

A beautifully spooky e-card greeted me this morning.

Thank you, DR Elmore!

BTW, I've been looking ahead to see when I can take a day to drive down and work on getting books out of there. Is sometime around the middle of November too soon?

If I were a twitterer, I'd be quitting too. I have a number of friends doing the same. They're going to something called mastadon (?).

Happy Sunday!  There's a new Broadway Radio Show now available to stream.  It's my conversation with actor/writer David Pevsner about his wonderful book Damn Shame: A Memoir of Desire, Defiance, and Show Tunes. David tackles show biz, sexuality, body shaming & ageism in this funny and also touching memoir.  Check it out!

If all goes well for next Friday, I'll be watching a local college production of Bat Boy, something I haven't seen in years. It's supposed to be a good production and I know a couple of the musicians. I would like to have played it myself, but a couple of rehearsal dates didn't work.

By "goes well", I mean that they lost their first of two weekends because of positive Covid testing, even though no one had exhibited symptoms. So we still live in precarious times, and I have to take a deep breath and marvel at how lucky we were with Carrie.

I have wanted to see Bat Boy for a long time. Nobody’s done it locally.

I was once on Twitter, but I was banned for life.

Why?

I wished that the same horror would befall a Georgia minister who was wishing God-inflicted horrors upon all Democrats.  I suggested that he and God were strangers, and that Satan was his god.

Apparently, that was a no-no. 

I don't miss it.

Yes. I'd prefer it at the moment if it could happen in mid-January when I can actually stop caring for my eyes, timers, and eye drops.

I quit Twitter, which I never used, as soon as Musk announced his plans to buy it.
