Well I went back to CVS today.  I went in and raised both middle fingers and walked around the store hollering:  "Which one of you SOBs pulled the curtain on me yesterday?!!!!"

Actually I went inside and went to the pharmacy and picked up my prescriptions.

Then since that went so well and the young lady was very nice, I asked her to help me set up mail delivery.....it took about 10 minutes.

I then told her why I wanted delivery....and she said....."Oh my.....I'm sorry."

So I really NEVER have to set foot in the store again.

Just who ARE these rubes who keep sending the former president millions and millions of dollars, time after time?

Rubes. And no relation to Goldberg.

I gather Trump is misbehaving today. I've m,issed it all since I've been working in the bathroom. I've accomplished all I can today, and it's still a disgusting mess.

Hope you don't mind; I corrected the typo.         :)

Thanks.  And I just corrected it in my original post. ;D

For the school's 2-week spring break, Ann and Jen went to Italy. It was not a success. Jen came down with Covid again. They got home last night. I was worried they might not be able to travel.

Oh, no!

~~~Quick Recovery Vibes for Jen!!~~~

I've got the bathroom decent enough to take a bath. I actually accomplished a good deal today. If the flooding hadn't reached the litter under the litter mat, I mighthave been able to mop the floor. I suspect that's Friday's chore.

Got the designed book, so began going through it and it looks great. It's shorter than I thought it would be given the 300-page manuscript and word count and yet it's come out at 230 pages or thereabouts. Same font, same font size as usual. The big difference is that we always put new chapters on the right and if a chapter ends on the right we leave a blank page on the left. In my books where there are twenty chapters or so, that can add a lot of pages. This book is ten and only once did the page on the left have to be blank. Anyway, glancing through it it looks really good. I'm having other eyes give it a go-through, since I just did last week. I'll check for bad hyphens, but I haven't found a single one yet. So far, it's only one global fix in the right side header and italicizing the addendum, which I think will look better that way. That's it so far.

Also, a little birdie told me that one of the film festivals we entered may have good news - can't talk about it for another couple of days.
