I asked Alexa to play My Heart Is… and she’s playing Liz Callaway. That’s a nice way to start the day.

Tonight is opening night.  Finally.

Last night I did some investigation.  I thought the Y U G E cash register used in the bakery was attached to the counter we were using.  I finally found out it wasn't - so I sent it to theeder purgatory.

It was blocking action on the SL and SR sides.....I am now on the hunt for a small electric adding machine to use in the bakery instead.  We shall see.....  Right now there is a basket of "bread" on the counter.

Kisses on your opening! Break legs and hearts.

In the Unnecessary Department, we don't need a remake of Rope or Le Samurai.

I'm up, I'm up - hard not to be up because we had us quite the shake and bake at seven-thirty. We've had smaller ones and never one that caused the emergency beeping on the phone. I stayed in bed for another hour. I think it was around a 4.6.

My assistant director sort of surprised me yesterday when she claimed that Kamala did well because she was given the questions in advance and that she had never ever claimed to be black before this election.....

The ignorance is real......

It is sad, scary, frustrating, and how you can respect her now.

Back, with eyes that are fine.

But man, are they dilated. When I was leaving they asked me if I needed sunglasses, and I cavalierly said no, I've got mine in the car. Hah! It had been overcast and foggy earlier, but while I was in there the sun had come out, and I nearly had to hold my hand over my eyes just to walk to the car! I don't remember ever being so affected by that. So I'll stay in for a while and then I must run a couple of errands.

They gave me excellent sunglasses to wear home after my cataract surgery.  I'm going to try and remember to take them to all of my yearly appointments.

My first ever earthquake was a routine little one in 1972 while I was on the mezzanine in Pickwick Books. Just an average little shaker. I was very proud to have finally experienced one.  :)

The biggest I felt during my years living in L.A. was the Whittier 5.7 in 1987. I was showering for work and and the shower walls suddenly flexed. When I got out and looked out to where I could just see the pool, there were li'l waves. When I got to work (in the Earthquake buildings on Wilshire, across from the Wiltern) one of our file cabinets was knocked over.

A few years earlier I was up in Bakersfield standing at our table in a trade show when the Coalinga earthquake happened. Wiki says that was a 6.2, and I can tell you it was a real shaker/roller. That was my only one in the Central Valley.

The only earthquake I can remember having been in was in upstate New York about 30 years ago. I was taking a nap (go figure) and I was awakened by the bed leaving off the floor. I had no idea what happened until I saw news of an earthquake being reported.

We had an earthquake a few months ago. I was talking on the phone top Jen. She felt it, and I completely missed it although a pile of books fell off the bookcase.
