Well, you've read the notes, the notes were inept and one-sided, and now it is time for you to post until the inept and one-sided cows come home.

Wasn't that a book.. No-Fry Tuesdays with Morrie?

I slept well until around 3:00. After that, it was hit and miss. Stella came by just after my 3:00 bathroom break and didn't stay long, but Annabelle and Thatch didn't show up until around 5:00. I did have a long and very strange dream about a Fifth Avenue book shop I happened to discover while I was shopping for a birthday gift. The shop was beautiful, the books were plenty, and the staff very friendly. As I looked around for a gift - I had purchased a book somewhere that I was carrying about in a paper bag - I realized that every book in each section - fiction, humor, etc. - had something to do with horror. There was a staircase and I asked if there were more books on the second floor. There were, so I went upstairs to browse, and I got a call on my cell phone. I can't remember now who called - former DR Jose, Joshie, someone else? - I as we talked, I came to a lounge area, so I sat to continie my conversation. After that, I continued browsing, but I misplaced my bag with the book. The remainder of the dream was a frustrating search for it.

I must call Access-a-Ride for tomorrow's trips, and then it's back to the ballet. I'm turning a solo into a Charleston.

I'm up.

I'm awake.

First cup of coffee steaming to my right.

Congested nasal passages attempting to break up.

And "Morning Joe" (final hour) going on in the background, with Joe talking the most, and over folks, and taking too long to make a point. I like him, but he's kind of a gas bag.

DR John G. asked if there were any videos yet for the Kritzerland show.

Someone whose name I'm not remembering posted videos of two or three songs on Facebook. It came up in my feed but I'm not finding it at present.

I think I must take THE BOY FRIEND Blu-ray off the shelf and give it a good viewing and hearing.

I slept well.

I dreamed.

I woke up in a slight panic.

I was riding a bicycle in the mountains and found myself on a path. Suddenly, that path was alongside a sheer cliff. I decided to turn around. I came very close to going over the side when I woke up.

I agree about the soundtrack to "The Boy Friend". After seeing the film in theater way back when, I wanted the music. The soundtrack was fine, but not thoroughly satisfying because so much music was missing. Yes, it was mostly dance music but those were the great memories of the film.

When Warner Archives issued the film on Blu Ray, I felt my prayers had been answered. I had bought it on DVD, but the Blu Ray was thrilling.

Awful morning: vomit and worse from both the cats and me. Some days I think death would be preferable, but then I worry about the cats' care after I'm dead. Some days I truly hate my life.

DR Rodzinski, I had meant to post earlier how lucky you were to get a higher than quoted price for your in-laws' home. It's hard to curb my anger at my two foolish brothers, most days.

DR Elmore's dream takes me back to my early days of discovering the bookstores on Fifth Avenue in visits to NYC from Ohio.

Doubleday, on the east side of the Avenue in the mid-50s.
Scribner's, farther south.
Rizzoli - I'll always remember the evening I discovered that one in its first location on the west side of the Avenue. Wasn't it in an L-shape, fronting onto Fifth and whichever side street it was at? Mid- to high-50s? When I moved here and found it had moved to 57th Street I went in and enjoyed it for a while, but it wasn't the same.

Wait. Was there a second Doubleday also on Fifth, not too far from the one I'm remembering?

I seem to think there was a B. Dalton that was actually pretty good.

I wonder how foolish the paltry few MAGAts in Miami feel when they see their pitiful numbers outside the courthouse yesterday.

The bluster will continue, but the audience is rapidly diminishing.

To be killed today by NYC Animal control. Breaks my heart.

Did anyone ever do anything like this?

With me, it was my mom's car key.

It knocked me across the room.

The key melted in the wall socket.

I am likely who I am because of this.

It's sunny and lovely now, but by noon the storm clouds (and perhaps their cantata) are supposed to be moving in and keeping us entertained till mid-evening.
