I slept 30 minutes longer than I originally intended, but it was so snug and warm cuddled up with Annabelle and Thatch that I didn't want to move.

Now that I'm up, the cats had their Fancy Feast Tuna and Whitefish and I've had my bagel and first cuppa coffee, I'm thinking about my day.

I need to go to my bank and pick up singles for my Access-a-Ride disasters. I think I may purchase Powerball and MegaMillions tickets as well before I head home. Then I will come back and work on my orchestra score.

Once again, my neighbor Ann came to my rescue. Those reading glasses were a revelation. After she left last night, I barely watched the TCV; I was too busy reading.

Five years ago today I attended a cat-kitten adoption event at the 92nd Street & Broadway Petco.  I was looking for a little brother for Annabelle.  I had two requirements: he had to be younger than she and he had to have some white in his coat. I checked out all the cats in the back of the store and then walked to the front of the store where they were setting up more cages of cats and there he was: Thatch!

He was three months old, orange and white, a little creamsicle of a kitten, and I was smitten.  Cupid's arrow never pierced a heart with more alacrity.  Five days later I brought him home.  Happy Anniversary, Thatch!

I have tried to Wordle several times this morning, but the system keeps telling me I am "offline".  Obiously, I am NOT offline or I wouldn't be posting here.

I had a blissful night of sleep.  My dreams were inconsequential. I awakened only once to answer nature's call.

There is nothing much on my agenda today other than to worry about why my blood pressure elevates so drastically at the oral surgeon's office but remains well within the normal range here at home.

DR TCB, I may be wrong, but I think that production of Merrily We Roll along is off-Broadway.

Kitty cleanup is finished, the bed is made, and I will now take the garbage to the basement before I head over to the bank.

I did manage to watch the most recent "Downton Abbey" film on Amazon Prime yesterday.  it moved along nicely and had a funny sort of Lina Lamont-ish storyline for the Abbey sequences when they let a movie company use the house for a film (and the money was what made it worthwhile).

I cannot presume that all of you have seen the film, so I won't throw in any spoilers other than to say it had some sadness to it. 

The characters have aged believably while I remain the same as I was when I saw my first episode!!!!

Today, I must get my hair cut.  Afterward, I shall lunch at Park Row No. 1 (which I have learned is an address, of sorts, and not an indicator that there are other Park Rows).  The restaurant is on Courthouse Square, which is all i ever hear anyone call it, but there is a short street running in front, and that is what I presume to be Park Row, although there is no street sign.

After that I shall vote early!!!

Isn't there a connection between Highclere Castle (Downton Abbey) and the King Tut tomb?

BK - there is an album on iTunes called The Music of America: Inventing Jazz - Dave Brubeck which includes "Points on Jazz" credited to Russell Gloyd. All of the other performances on the album appear to be the originals. The credits say originally licensed 1956. I wonder if that could be the recording you're talking about?
