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

Topic of the Day:  I have had some smash burgers, and I like them.  I like thin burger patties to ones that are too thick, and even though you get two, they're still usually not as thick as regular burger patties.  AND because they're thin, there's no way to have any pink in the middle, which really turns me off, burger-wise. :P

And I also like that they always have two pieces of cheese. :)

I think I had a smashburger once, but I don't remember much about it. The chain is prevalent in our area.

Why would I want to order something called a smash burger?

Yesterday I got about six pages of orchestration written for No. 30. I think it's going well.

Drinking some coffee, and before I know it, it'll be time to get ready to drive into NYC.

Third time's the charm, eh?

Looking forward to the visit!

I had a rather mind boggling crazy dream fairly early in the night, which I woke from and went back to sleep in short order. At some point later, I started a different dream, but it was clearly a followup to the earlier one with new elements brought in. Then I'll be damned (oh yes, I will) if the early-morning dreaming didn't continue that second one, with another new element or two brought in. I finally decided to get the HELL up a little earlier than I needed to, just to stop the insanity.

What's crazy about it is that, to my knowledge, not one part of any of those dreams had any basis in reality. I can usually find something that a dream, or some part of it, can be attributed to, but only one little thing in this series was something that has any history with me at all.

Oh well. So let's enjoy a new day, shall we? Lordy.

Anyhoo, it will be great to see DR Elmore for the first time since -- when was it, October? December? -- our HHW get-together at Joe Allen.

And of course visiting the kitties. And I believe adopted son Joshie is scheduled to be there. I forget the other person DR Elmore mentioned, but I don't think it was the helper Mario, someone else.

It will be a fine visit and reunion.

The site was definitely offline for a while last night. I'd attempted to get on for a quick ketchup, and I'm sorry I don't remember what time it was, somewhere between 11:00 and midnight eastern time? Oh, we can check vixmom's postings because I believe she had just said a few things, and I saw DR Jrand73 come on, but every page was taking forever to load, and when I tried again a little while later it was completely down. At that point I was going to bed so I don't know how long it persisted. But it was between vixmom's postings and BK's.

Mario is in Boston helping his mother move. His partner Jason, with whom I edited the original Guys & Dolls and How to Succeed and who set up my new computer, will join us. Someone's gotta lift thise cartons!

Had he been involved with Subways Are For Sleeping? I might be conflating a couple of things.
