Hot dogs were good.

No cheesecake today, Tarzan.

Tarzan?

I'm a bit tired. There is a package at the mail place but it can wait until tomorrow. More Caress soap.

I had to guffaw when BK related the tale of the cheesecake on the floor. Not so much at his chagrin as at the memory of a "Friends" episode:

It has been a very nondescript day here in Johnston SC in the CSRA.

I cannot fathom why. I was up early, watched the Joe-and-Mika-and-Willie-less "Morning Joe" (hosted by British Katty Kay and American Jonathan Lemire), had coffee, got mail, filled up my car with gasoline ($3.01/gallon), bought my lunch at (Don't-Be-a-Square-Eat-at-)The Triangle where the bill-of-fare was pork chops. Yum.

I have a lab appointment in the morning at the VA, preparatory to next week's quarterly checkup. While in Aiken, I do believe I shall grace Sam's Club with my patronage.

It is nothing but hot, Hot, HOT here this week.

We have not yet reached our high which should top out at 105.

Currently, though, it's 95.

One of the major uglies involved in our increasingly hot weather is the proliferation of GNATS.

They are everywhere, get into everything, and irritate everyone.

I cannot guess how many I have ingested simply by talking, eating or breathing.

GNATS redux:

I have several saucers around the house filled with vinegar and dish soap. This attracts them and they drown in it.

I have many teeny corpses floating in them as i type.

I, too, watched the Blake Edwards special on PBS.

It was a lovely tribute to a genius.

I had forgotten how absolutely lovely Julie Andrews was in earlier years.

Why is "Morning Joe" without all three stars?

I sat on the couch like so much fish and went out like a light for over an hour.

bk · « **Reply #109 on:** August 28, 2024, 06:18:26 PM »

Did a few things.

bk · « **Reply #110 on:** August 28, 2024, 06:18:36 PM »

Can't remember what they were.

bk · « **Reply #111 on:** August 28, 2024, 06:18:45 PM »

Maybe because I didn't do them?

bk · « **Reply #112 on:** August 28, 2024, 06:19:30 PM »

Who knows?
