I often turn to music, and I Wish You a Waltz from Ballroom is one song that often helps. Or just about anything by Cole Porter. A novel by P.G. Wodehouse is also a big help. He can make me laugh like few others with just a twist of a sentence or the merry mangling of the language.

Music and reading also take me out of my thoughts. Unfortunately I don't listen to music much anymore, and now that I don't have a CD player on my computer even less. I listen to it while using the weights at the gym and then turn it off when I get on the treadmill & begin to read. If I walk alone I listen to music. Walking & music is a great combination, no wonder so many people do it.

Post by: John G. on February 07, 2020, 10:35:56 AM: Elmore, someone on castrecl mentioned the novel, Gowns by Roberta, recently. So, I ordered it on an inter library loan. The first few paragraphs are hysterically funny in a bad sort of way. I think I am going to love this. Have you read any more books by Alice Duer Milker? The Beauty and the Bolshevist sounds wonderfully campy.

I've read the novel twice. I bought a copy while we were preparing for the recording and then when I was writing the recording notes. I've never read any of her other novels.

The regular computers had them but not the all in one. The all in one has a nice sound board on it where the standard computer I was looking at needed better speakers on my desk.

No flash drive for me. My desk faces the door to my office which is one of the reasons I prefer the all in one computer. The back looks nicer than the monitors and has fewer visible cords.

All of the computers here at work no longer have disc drives. I actually need one for my work, so they got me a USB player, and it's been fine, except now it seems that it doesn't play DVD-/+R discs. I need to check potentially defective items that come in from branches, and some (rarely, though) are DVD-/+R discs. I need to be able to see what's wrong, so this will eventually need to be dealt with.

I bought my MacBook in 2014, I think, but it was manufactured in 2012. It was the last of the internal disc drives. Someone suggested a later model and adding an external drive, but I like the internal drive. I don't pay attention to the non-Apple products, but I imagine the trend is the same.

I like Windows 10 - but it has a LOT of updates.....my favorite of all times....and I started with Windows 98.....has been Vista.

I remember getting a 386 Pentium, then getting a Windows 3 computer, then a Windows 95. I still have my Windows XP computer because I have programs on it that still work, but I can't upgrade them to my new-ish Windows 10 computer.

Temps in the twenties today, so I am wearing a cardigan in the house.

I'd be wearing longjohns, a turtleneck, socks, and a wool or fleece pullover.

LOL That would be me.

Frozen or house made?

Except that I need more sleep! But that's not news.

My needing more sleep is also not news ;D

I had to keep explaining what was happening to Keith. I felt like you really needed to know the story to understand all that was happening the way the movie jumped around.

Post by: TCB on February 07, 2020, 11:35:28 PM: To be totally honest (Dear Diary), I get so hyped up over auditions and callbacks, because over the last 60+ Years that I have been doing this, I have only gone to auditions or callbacks perhaps 25% of the time.
