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

I remember when that woman drove on the wrong side of the road. I could not bear to watch that documentary.

George my eldest sister will be so jealous if you get the Indigos’ autographs. She’s seen them many times though.

I've never been a specific fan of theirs, so I won't be too upset if they don't sign, but it would be really cool if they do.  And if they do, I'll scan the autographs and post it. :)

I slept rather well last night, but it was too warm in the apartment and it was a restless sleep.

Yesterday, for my birthday, Joshie gave me a wonderful set of headphones, only there's a problem: the plug on the headphones is too large for the headphones socket, which is now on the side of the iMac. I am not amused, and I must see if there's an available adaptor.

Well, I just went to Amazon and, looking for "headphones iMac adaptor," I found this photo. When I looked at the plug, I realized nt set might have the same issue. It did and now my headphones work nicely.

It is, once again, Tuesday.     :o

Happily, today is the day pest control comes to protect me from creepy crawlers.  Also, happily, if I ever see one, it is NOT crawling. Creepy, yes, but dead. D-E-A-D.  One is sorry for them, yes, but if you are a bug, you should be out of doors, not in my house.

Sometime between 1 and 3 p.m., the technician will spray inside my home and then go outside and spray the perimeter.   

My mom was always happy with this company, and so am I.

Of course, the rare dead bug I find is nothing compared to the "flying dead things" Bruce once had in a house he owned way back in the early days of this here blog.

THAT is an image that has never left my imagination.

I slept very well.  I recall that I dreamed...pleasant dreams, none of which I can remember.

Those are the BEST dreams, aren't they!

I hate the ones that haunt me throughout a day.

Even now, looking back at some of the ones I recounted here in weeks past, I have to shudder a bit.

My day hasn't yet started. 

I have had no coffee, no muffin and am drinking tepid water while I type this.  My computer is at a desk on my bedroom end of the den.  I haven't made it to the other end that leads into the kitchen.

And "Morning Joe" is probably chattering away, but I don't hear it because I haven't yet gotten to the remote control.

I have no idea where today will lead.  Given all that I have accomplished since getting up some 15 minutes ago, I have no aspirations of normalcy.

We shall see.

When that ghastly thing happened (it was on the Taconic Parkway) I was obsessed with following the hourly and daily updates on LoHud.com, the Lower Hudson Valley paper that seems to be very good at digging into stories. Just the bare facts known then were sickening enough. I haven't yet seen the documentary, but I probably will watch it sometime.

A few years ago we had a wrong-way crash and death (of the innocent person, of course!) on I-84 here in Danbury. I was about a block away on a street near the overpass where it happened, and the sound of the crash was one big boom that might have passed for the opening shot of WW III.

The very idea of a wrong-way crash is horrifying to me, both in the results and in what ghastly state of mind the perp must be in for it to happen in the first place. I'm reminded of that many of the times I'm at any kind of highway entrance.
