Well, you've read the notes, the notes were both disquieting and dislouding, and now it is time for you to post until the disquieting cows come home.

I've had a strange morning already.  When I opened my email, about 20 messages from October 5, 2017 downloaded as new messages.  This of course was quite perplexing, and I'm quite puzzled.  Then, Annabelle and Thatch both agreed they would not eat this morning's Fancy Feast breakfast, and the final clincher is that my mouse is dying.  It stops working and I gave to unplug it from the keyboard and then replug it for the damned thing to work.

I think I neglected to say I was going to see a local production of URINETOWN last night. Well, I did, and it was very well done. It’s also only the second time I’ve seen the show. The first had to be at least ten years ago, and since I hadn’t paid it any attention through those years, I was thinking I liked it better than I apparently do. It’s certainly a fun score, but as marvelous as last night’s cast was, I wasn’t invested in the goings on.

I do have some dog biscuits here but oddly no dog.  I bought them as treats because Grant frequently has his dog Baxter with him.  Baxter is very skittish and doesn't trust anyone, but he now knows where the treats are.

When our upstairs neighbor dog visits he goes to the cabinet with the dog treats though we rarely need to go to the cabinet as I usually carry them in my pocket.  We share them with many of the dogs around here and they all expect treats now :)

Once was more than enough for us, however, if you have traveled in areas where they charge to use the bathrooms you can appreciate the concept of the show.

I do remember having to deal with a few pay toilet stalls in my time. Not for years, fortunately. And I'm not sure where, but I'm thinking they might have been more prevalent in places like Greyhound bus stations. This would put it back in my college days.

It was most disconcerting to read of Elmo's dying mouse.  And while I know what he meant by "mouse", I have a sneaking suspicion that Annabelle and Thatch may be taking out some of their natural aggressions on said "mouse" because it is, indeed, called a "mouse".

I don't know about such things.  I am now a two-car person...with a Nissan Frontier 4 X 4 pickup truck and a Nissan Rogue automobile (mini-SUV, as such).

I cannot imagine being without either, as it turns out.  The truck is necessary for some things.  The SUV is necessary for much better mileage.

Work was odd. Nobody wanted to get anything done. But we had plenty of meetings.

Then I had an hour of dance/athleticism. A few of the exercises are getting a little easier. But not all of them.

I would like to try the McConnell’s Peppermint Stick ice cream.

I'm sure it's wonderful, but so is the peppermint candy ice cream I have in the freezer.

What brand?

That happened a lot with my previous cat Ebonie.  At on point, I had to give her some antibiotics (I think) that only cost $15 for the prescription.  I was able to get them in her mouth, but she kept throwing up, so I paid the $60 to have the injection.  THAT was worth it.
