I had to do it because otherwise the phone just rings and rings and rings.

Now it will go to voice mail like it used to.

Must visit the ATM and then get food.

Why don't ATMs dispense food?

singdaw · « **Reply #184 on:** March 24, 2023, 02:42:38 PM »

That's what I'd like to know.

We are about to leave the gate, won't miss our connection

Very good news, DR Jane.

If you bookend ATM with an E, you get a nasty little pejorative.

DR RLP I think you've been hacked on FB

BABYLON landed with a thud on my front porch....perhaps I will watch it tonight after the two ball games are over.

That would be a marathon, DR Jrand72!

That was in the book, The Furrows, which I finished this morning.

I’m now st a Catholic church near the office that has a weekly Lenten fish fry. The plate comes with fries and slaw.

I’ve driven by for a few weeks and haven’t had the chance to stop.

Loved this when I read it this morning:

Every year, Washington Post columnist John Kelly conducts his Springtime in Washington Haiku Contest. His favorite this year is by Vicki Elsbernd:

Spring floats in softly 
Like a Chinese spy balloon 
Under the radar

I walked to the bank to pay for the Disneyland trip. It was exciting.

The neighbors had a landscaper come to remove the weeds. He didn't remove them, but he did spray weed killer. Sadly, it is a breezy day. I wonder how many plants I'll lose due to the drift.

Oh -- when Bad Cinderella comes through on tour, I'll be trading those tickets in.

I'm trying to think of the last time I ate at a sit-down restaurant with a server. It had to be last April when I attended a meeting in L.A.

Prior to that, it would have been B.C. (Before Covid). Probably a few years before.

I am not counting the buffet, which we go to a couple times per year, when there's no pandemic.

Laura · « **Reply #200 on:** March 24, 2023, 03:55:35 PM »

That's pretty much everything on my mind.

I doubt it will last long enough to tour.

The fish was good. The fries were better.

I love fries that are so hot they almost burn your fingertips.

Sounds good, DR John G.

Working in the kitchen and listening to Judy Kuhn's Jule Styne album. I hadn't listened to it in - oh, 15 or more years. It's still spectacular.

I tried to start Some Like It Hot. The songs are skillfully written and well-performed, but they all sound alike, 5 tracks or so in.

Judy graduated from school in May, and I started in September. So I just missed her.

Joyce Vance does an amazing job of explaining the legal concepts and constructs of conspiracy using chickens.

And right now, I'm conspiring to eat something.

But I don't have a fish fry.
