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

Did BK say he didn't like BABYLON? Really? We all know how much he admires vomit scenes.

Ha!

Hope you are feeling better, DR Jeanne. Slowly but surely.

Thank you. I believe the headaches have now abated. Thank God!

Recovery vibes for John G, who may qualify as a:

glutton for punishment
obsessed baker
impatient patient


LOL DR Jeanne, this is perfect.

Jane, thanks for the feedback regarding your friend's tear duct plugs. I've decided to forego the procedure, but am still interested in hearing how others do, as things change and I may feel the need to do it at some point in the future. I take black currant seed oil to combat overall dryness, which I would need anyway.

What, and how much black seed oil do you take?

My DH dumped a jar into one of those machines, got his receipt, and went back the next day to redeem it. Sorry, must be redeemed the day you put the change in. So we lost it all.

sounds like a gotcha to me. Was this Wells Fargo Bank? No one does rip-offs like they do.

LOL.  I wanted to bank with them as I liked their logo.  We lasted a few months with them.

The show. And may I say Lesley Manville makes a mean G&t. Four parts gin to one part tonic. Looks wonderful.

I joked on Facebook that I should jump on the Sondheim book bandwagon - it's so ridiculous - everyone and their mother some with no ties at all.

Today I got screeners for The Fabelmans, which I've already seen, and something called The Woman King - from the title alone I can't imagine watching it. Should I watch Babylon again or just fast forward to the poop and pee and vomit scenes - oh, and I forgot the entire Tobey Maguire scene, which is where the film goes even further off the rails and is clearly modeled on the Alfred Molina scene in Boogie Nights, but magnified about 1200 times. In that scene, we get to watch a human freak eat a rat.

Not something I would drink so I don't remember how she made it, or know how it is usually made.

Just got a call from the doctor who performed the surgery. Wow. A house call in a more modern sense.

It’s usually the reverse.

I guess you didn't read DR John's comments today regarding The Woman King ;D

I appreciate when the doctor does a follow up call, very nice.  It doesn't happen very often.
