I just come here for the novelty coffee mugs and their trenchant commentary on the little ironies of everyday life.

Chas, had you seen a photo would you have recognized your neighbor's front door?

Probably not. It's not someone we ever have occasion to visit. We only ever see them down at the base of the driveways, going in or out. But what the photo would have told us is that it was definitely left at a wrong address.

Yes, and maybe the driver would have returned for it.  Fortunately your neighbor was home to collect it.

Lately, I've really been enjoying the Thursday Murder Club mysteries by Richard Osman. There are currently three books in the series. Funny and delightful, with good mysteries and a surprising amount of heart.

Do you have to read them in order?

Yes, read them in order.

The mysteries are self-contained, but the character development follows an arc.

Exactly.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

Whoa. What an adventure on DR Elmore!

I take it there isn't a chair down there you could have sat in while waiting for the firemen. Is there room for one?

There used to be two chairs in the laundry room. Several months ago I asked the management for their return.

DR elmore3003 - did you invite the blond firefighter up for tea?

No, but my libido has been in overdrive since then.

I was thinking about today's food last night. I have all the ingredients for Wacky Noodles here so that was the answer until I realized I don't have cream of mushroom soup. Damn. So, I either go out and get it, or I do something else altogether.
