Well, you've read the notes, the notes were busy as a BK, and now it is time for you to post until the busy as a bee cows come home.

And the word of the day is: EXTOL!

At rehearsal last night, we ran a few things then started at the top of the show, but only got about 2/3rds of the way through act two. It was good work, though. I still need work on the dance for the song, "Facade." ::)
-
And I have to memorize my five or six lines...and songs. We're off book on Monday!
-
Good morning, all!
-
I slept solidly from 8:30 to 1:30, and the rest of the night was hit or miss: my left hand kept going to sleep and my legs were killing me. Thatch was restless, and then Annabelle vomited. Stella wisely stayed out of the way.
-
I've had assurances this week that all is well with my HRA account, only today, since no funds have been transferred to my bank card, it's clear that all is not well.
-
So, I'll be dealing with HRA again today.
-
I also have an editing session with my ballet friend Doug Fullington. We're co-editing a 1934 ballet score by Kay Swift, who was one of George Gershwin's girlfriends. I knew Kay in the 1980s and she was a wonderful lady so I'm happy to be working on this.

That's cool!

Good morning, friends.

And others.

"Flaunt it if you've got it," I say, as I carry around my 65-count bag of Reese's Peanut Butter Pumpkins.

I was shocked when I heard the government shut down, but only because I wasn't aware it was ever actually working in the first place.

Fresh produce.

Boo!

Very tired and slow this morning.
-
Last night I did indeed have TCM playing at low volume when I hit the sack, but this time I was out like a light.
Imagine my surprise when I woke at 2:16 a.m., thought the clock said 6:16, and because there was some light in the room, I thought the sun was coming up. Then I turned my head, and it was Torn Curtain. Oy! I decided it was only right that I saw a couple of scenes before turning it off and going back to sleep. And I sort of did, but it was a chore keeping my eyes open. I did finally turn it off and passed out again. I even succeeded in sleeping in a little.

:) Definitely something to this!

DR FREDDIE it is a comedy for the most part.
-
I shall consider the TOD. For a moment.

Notes blagged. Schlagered.

Good morning.
-
Rainy here.

From DR Singdaw:
There is a lot going on medically here at HHW.
There usually is but it does seem a bit more at the moment.
-
Does anyone besides DR Freddie have United Healthcare? I read that they will be ending Medicare Advantage in many areas. Freddie, you are ok.

Standard Medicare here, and I have United Healthcare's supplemental Plan N through AARP.

Thanks for posting that, Jane.
I now have three cards instead of the one card that I had from Fidelis just before I turned 65, but of course the premiums cost far far less. My cards say Medicare Parts A and B, and UnitedHealthcare AARP Medicare Supplement Plan G (I think they call it a Medigap plan), as well as WellCare for prescriptions.

I know this really isn't a proper Yom Kippur atonement sacrifice, but I did make it until 1 p.m. without clicking on any Nicole Kidman - Keith Urban stories.
-
But the titles of the stories have gotten more clickbait-like. Maybe it really IS simply that when there are two huge names divorcing from two separate parts of the entertainment industry, more people are interested.
-
And it looks like Keith Urban has live concerts this week, so speculation about whether he'll say anything during his shows might be keeping the stream of stories active.
-
I kept hearing a tick tick tick that was not a clock.
I was ready get out the bomb detector when I realized it was the ceiling fan in the computer room.

Good that you found out what it is!
Glad that it wasn't the pair of keets gaslighting you.
-
I have United Healthcare through AARP - I haven't heard that they're ending it here and they'd better not be.
-
I'm up, I'm up - eight hours of sleep. It's been over a week since that happened.
-
Eight hours of sleep is very good!

Good for you.

Clickbait makes sense. I find it difficult to imagine what more there is to say about the situation.
-

It doesn't look like it. The locations are listed in the link and I believe they are in more rural areas.

This one was just too provocative for me not to click on it.
"Nicole Kidman's six-word clapback about her divorce from Tom Cruise goes viral amid her Keith Urban split"
The six words turn out to be "Well, I can wear heels now."
-
When we're still on page 2 at 2:30 pm (Eastern), I suspect any fodder for a post will do. :)
-
At 8:45 this morning I requested a phoe call back from HRA. I'm still waiting after 7.5 hours.
-
Oy!
-
In other news, I just bought the largest red onion Shop Rite had in their bin, because like a perfect idiot I forgot that when buying the pasta a couple of days ago. The making of the tuna pasta salad will commence shortly, and it'll be chilled overnight for eager consumption on the morrow.
(I need some red onion for another thing later, that's why the large one. I know BK said half or less of a medium one.)

;D Is that why I saw headlines comparing this split with the one from Cruise?
-
So… what was the six-word clapback? Don’t leave me hanging.
-
Rodzinsky, it is there. Go back to Freddie's post and you will find it at the bottom.
-
Aha! Heels, got it.

PAGE THREE!

Slow posting day - what is it, a fast day or something?
-
It's a tuna pasta salad making day.
AND I JUST MADE IT!!!!!
It's in the fridge for overnight chillin', but I am here to tell you that having taken only a couple of small test tastes, I was ready to dig right in. I can already say: what a simple and great combination of flavors.

What time should we stop over, DR ChasSmith?
-
Then we can go to DR John G.'s for pie for dessert.

TOD:
Lots, but some random great voices:
Keely Smith
Karen Carpenter
Barbra Streisand (the early years)

Good evening!

Great, DR George!

As for my Wordle score: 4/6

Just a reminder to add a bit of salt to each helping - NOT the whole batch after the initial salt and pepper. Just add a small amount and mix it around your plate. Adds just the right amount of flavor.

Haircut done and I had a chicken Caesar from Stanley's for food.
