Long rainy day so far. No rain was in the forecast.

Go figure.

Tonight I'm going in to NYC to Symphony Space to hear ( and see I suppose!) George Takei and BD Wong

Have a wonderful evening.

Back from an omelet and a side Caesar salad. That used to be considered an alternate to potatoes or toast but now they just decided to tack on a $2.00 extra charge in addition to a 3% aren't we great fee. I think I'm about done with Hugo's.

Is Hugo's the only place adding an additional charge?   Same question regarding the 3% aren't we great fee.

DR JOHN G what was the last party you took your plate to?  Maybe you left it there.

I don't think I have used it outside my house since Mom gave it to me.

Most perplexing, as W.S. Gilbert would say.

Hmmm, have you used it inside the house since she gave it to you?

The three percent is some kind of service fee that has nothing to do with the tip. The default tip is now 22% there - not doing that either. 20%.

Laundry went smoothly, thank God. I've been following the Trump trial since I came up from the basement.

Last year I read that 15% of restaurants added service fees.

I may watch The Pink Panther on TCM tonight.  I haven't seen it in a long time and it always makes me laugh.

I first saw it at the drive in.  It was the second feature and the people I was with wanted to leave - so I didn't see the ending until it was on television.

They were bored by "The Pink Panther"?

Leaving early at the drive-in to avoid the long line of cars exiting.  A clever idea, but not great if you want to know how the movie ends ;D

Keith has been wonderful, spending hours and hours researching wound care and finding different bandages that won't cause red welts to form on my skin.

That's so great that he's doing that!

Has he found anything promising yet?
