There will be no streaming or recording because the actors are not miked.

In other bad news....my main computer is DEAD.

All of my inner web programs that I use for the theater are on it....and I can't do any work.

I am on the small computer.

I tried to use the APPLE but my fat fingers pressed some key combination and now I am typing in Russian if anyone knows how to remedy that.


:( Such terrible news all around!

An answer to the Russian problem could come in handy if you ever decide to go into politics.

I’m enjoying reading about the third Downton Abbey film.

Ooh, I hadn't heard about that - thanks for letting us know! I'm happy to see that Paul Giamatti will be returning in this movie.

Finished listening to Braiding Sweetgrass, which I loathed. I seem to have a dislike of a lot of writing by indigenous people, and I don’t know why. But I found this book slow, pompous and condescending. And overwritten. The author claims to be a poet, but I don’t think I’ll be searching out her poetry.

Now finishing A Last Supper of Queer Apostles, a collection of essays by Chilean writer Pedro Lemebel. Think John Waters, Allen Ginsberg and Jimmy Breslin rolled into one.

In still other news, I fired up the gas grill and ran it up to high, to begin the seasonal cleaning process, and...

FOUR MICE HEADED FOR THE HILLS.

Yes, I should have inspected the whole thing before doing anything. If that's what you're thinking, you're right.

Both BK and DR Jrand73 had DRIVE problems today, each of a slightly different nature than the other.

I think most of the pop from my youth is still around, particularly Vernors and Red Pop. You can't get Red Pop out here but Vernors is plentiful. I used to be a Tab fan but converted to Diet Coke when it came out. I haven't had any pop for many years though, when I decided I finally had to kick my Diet Coke habit.

I liked Vernor’s. Haven’t had it in ages.

I love Vernors!

I grew up on Vernors (we didn't get it all that often, just an occasional thing) and I love it. I can't get it locally so I pick it up whenever I drive into the Midwest. That hasn't happened in a while, and the online costs are ridiculous.

I am almost, but not quite, recovered from my trip.

Just lolling around and trying to make sense of what I did over the weekend and how it relates, if it does, to my regular routine.

Perhaps I need to travel more.

See, now I desire Roscoe's - I don't think I've been there in a decade. I need it. Even though I already have something for tonight, now I'm tempted to get it for later - Uber Eats has it, there's a promotion going on and... right now, I've scheduled it for tomorrow, as I've already had bacon and eggs today - but I could save what I WAS going to have until tomorrow and have that at five. Decisions, decisions...

Resistance was futile, I'm afraid. Latest arrival, 4:30. I need it after the ordeal of the morning.

Then I had to email my landlord to inquite about the fact that my rent check for June has never cleared. The landlord created a new website to handle all payments and the check was mailed to the address given on the website. I won't pay by credit card since they add a service fee to the rental rate of - if I remember correctly from the only time I tried that - around $20.00.

Nothing worse than fees on top of necessary payments. :P

Yesterday's visit with the home healthcare nurse went well, and a physical therapist is coming on Thursday. I will get three weeks of therapy on Mondays and Thursdays and then be re-evaluated.

That's great, Larry!  Hope it all works out!
