In honor of the day, I am wearing underwear. Thought you’d like to know.

We had rounds of thunder on both Saturday and Sunday nights. I never saw any lightning and the thunder was brief, just enough to send scaredy-cat Thatch into hiding for a couple of hours. Stella, who must have been reading up on tornadose, hid in the bathtub, and the fearless Annabelle slept on the pillow next to me as I watched the TV.

Here's a quick snap of Janet Maslin and Robert Harris after yesterday's screening.

Yes, it's clickable.

I shall assume that everybody was wearing underwear.

Decent night's sleep.

Miserable dreams.  Nothing major, but a lot of dead ends.

i was up at 7:15 and back in bed at 7:25, and then I slept another two hours.

Feeling a bit sluggish, but it will pass.  I hope it will pass.

The difference between WANTS and NEEDS:

I want abs.
But I need ice cream.


Excellent!  Funny because it's true.

I don't always remember to ask Keith what he did Wordle in, and I'm usually not in the room with him when he Wordles.

Is today's topic THE NEW, IMPROVED UNDERWEAR?

No. No, it isn't. It's still READERS. So next time I'm in CVS I'm going to look for the ones BK describes. I've only been paying $15 for the el cheapo CVS brand, but these sound good. I use two different ones:  +1.25 for music stand distance and +2.00 for laptop distance and general reading. I'll see what they have and try one. My store doesn't seem to replenish these too often, either, so I might have to visit the Studio City location.

Speaking of photographic evidence, you're getting very close to your 36000 millstone.  That's a rather rounded millstone.

In Judaism and Fiddler on the Roof language, of course, 36 is twice Chai (Chai being life)

36000 would then be 2000 times Life!

Waiting to find out if tomorrow’s MRI is covered by the insurance company. It doesn’t appear to be.
