Well, you've read the notes, the notes had props for the notes, and now it is time for you to post until the prop cows come home.

From last night:
The same with PRIME TARGET, the mathematician-based show, though that never caught on at all, and was cancelled after its first season.

Freddie, did you ever see (or even hear of) a show called Kyle XY?  It was a sci-fi show and they cancelled it at the end of the third season...and it ended on a cliff-hanger! :o They NEVER finished it.

Random comment on a left-leaning political video short:

Do you remember when being vaccinated was normal and being a Nazi was unimaginable? This is the weirdest time line....

I was indeed ready for bed at 7:00 last night,  and I slept very well most of the night. Around 4:30, after cuddling for some time with Thatch, I had a bathroom break, got semi-dressed and lay down with Annabelle for another 40 minutes or so. I then finished dressing, turned on the apartment lights,  turned on the TV, and looked through my emails.

DR ChasSmith, get yourself a box of white cotton gloves:

and a jar of Aquaphor:
W?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1

Every night before bed lather up your hands with the Aquaphor, then put on the gloves. Your hands will thank you.

Every morning, wipe your hands thoroughly with a towel. The Aquaphor  is a pain but it works wonders.

After kitty cleanup, I have a basement garbage-recycables trip, then a heavy round of tidying up. Then, I'm back to the iTunes mess. I am finally into the D's. I stopped yesterday with Diana Canova.

I never watched the show, though I heard of it at the time.  That's terrible for the fans that no conclusion was offered, especially for a show that ran three seasons.

DR Elmore, thank you for the info on the white cotton gloves, etc.

I'd been aware of that method of healing these things, but had never tried it. It just so happens that I recently got a pack of the gloves for a completely unrelated project -- which I then ended up not needing them for -- so I'm all set. I don't have Aquaphor here but I've got something or other from the dermatologist that I can use in the meantime. Thank you!

OMG, I didn't yet share my latest escapade of yesterday morning!

Pull up a chair, everyone.

So -- I told about the dry skin splitting on Finger #1 (#2 in piano terms), and I didn't mention it but there were actually a couple more that had bothered me in days prior. They'd been healing, but you can still feel the damned things for a while.

Anyhoo, JUST FOR COMIC RELIEF...

I was slicing a bagel yesterday morning, and -- I swear, I'm always careful when doing anything like this -- I was holding the bagel with the OTHER hand, and I somehow allowed the bread slicer to swipe against that hand's index finger...

So guess who had a band-aid on the opposite finger for yesterday's rehearsal and show? You only get one guess. At least I'd already removed the band-aid from the right hand, so I didn't look completely wrapped up like the gal in "The Eye of the Beholder". Not quite yet, anyway.

But then, oddly enough, though I could still feel them slightly, all fingers and thumbs felt pretty good during both sessions yesterday. Go figure. You never know how that's going to affect you. But the first bad one was healed enough, and the human-error one was a slight thing that the band-aid protected fine, and I just left it on because it was on a part of the finger that I could wrap it around and not have it interfere with playing.

We have a Mermaid performance tonight, and tomorrow's matinee closes the book on that subject.

Next week, we give a big hello to some woman who goes by the name of Dolly.

Vaseline works just as well.

I'm still mad about that. >:(

I watched that show, too.  Danged right I'm still mad.  But then CBS had a really great show in "Moonlight" starring Alex O'Laughlin and Jason Dohring.  Cancelled after one fabulous season.  I really hated CBS for dumping it as it was better than most shows on their agenda.

Thanks for the doctor visit vibes.

All is well.  Some adjustments were made to my meds, mostly good as it cut back on dosages.

And I went to Panera and got the Asiago Bagel Chicken Roma sammich.   MAN!  That sammich was GOOD!!!
