Is it page 4?

OMG! Four pages.

I just spent the past three hours revising and polishing a story, only to accidentally delete it while I was trying to save it. How frustrating.

Vexing, irritating, also. And how maladroit.

Okay, this is unbelievable.

Last night it was announced that one employee of Danbury Hospital (who also works in Norwalk hospital) was exposed. He or she lives over in NY state. I have no idea whether that person is even sick. But it has apparently sent this region into a tailspin, because look what Nathan just found at BJ's in the TP & PT aisle.

Kristi's over in Rhode Island and she'll pick up supplies there.

I now feel like we're in a 1960s sci-fi film or a Twilight Zone episode.

The dentist grabbed the chart and said “ah yes...I see the notes that. This was a temporary fuxabd the tooth needed a root canal and crown...it should have been dines years ago...you got five years out of that temporary well done!”

Yikes! Does "fuxabd" have a meaning similar to what it looks like, or was that a typo?

OMG!

Well everyone who is anyone knows fuxabd is the way trendy, hip and happening people say “fix and” on the inter webs....

Typo. Pshaw! Who do you think you’re talking to?

Of course, e now know , that it's safe if you're under 60, but if you're over 60, don't even shake hands with anyone.

Good to know....I’ll just be going with my usual 5 minute snog then

Oh goodness I passed a plateau without noticing

Assuming 54000 is a plateau

vixmom · « **Reply #103 on:** March 07, 2020, 11:51:48 AM »

Although in my case there so no plateauing just a steady climb to the Peak of Tediousness

So, my next thing is playing Keyboard 1 in "The Drowsy Chaperone". That runs for two weeks at a high school near New Haven I hadn't been familiar with, but it seems they have a great theater and musical department and they always have a full pit for the shows.

Spring musical season is great for us free-lancers. That and "Willy Wonka" are two good solid gigs for yrs truly. If someone called me for a late May slot, I could make it a trifecta.

Following up on the paper towel (we're fine on TP) saga, Home Depot had plenty in stock, so we're all set for a few weeks.

I suspect the biggest runs would be on the warehouse clubs like Costco and BJ's. That's where people expect to buy large, and the towns that have these stores get thronged with outsiders on weekends anyway.

At a Westin in Tampa, they said any towels you leave on the bathroom floor will be replaced, any not on the floor will not be replaced. But no points incentive.,

That sounds typical. I have still found used towels left on the rack replaced.

Makes sense it was what Vixdad was used to.

DR Chas is BJ's like Costco?

Jane · « **Reply #111 on:** March 07, 2020, 12:57:59 PM »

We stopped for a few items at Safeway today. The paper & cleaning shelves were fully stocked again except for sanitizer.

I hope the market is monitoring the Hamantashen shortage issue, The supply they have does not seem like enough to last until Tuesday.

This seems pandemic worthy.

Yep. Some difference in products and brands carried, but same deal. I've had a Costco membership since the local store opened in 1993, and Kristi & Nathan joined BJ's when they opened here a few years ago. So whatever we want at either one, we're covered.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #116 on:** March 07, 2020, 01:03:44 PM »

I've also got two sets of auditions coming up. One is next weekend, for a production of "Addams Family", and the other is three days in April for the local outdoor summer theater that's doing "Sound of Music", "Edwin Drood", and "In the Heights". These should result in an interesting selection of songs being brought in.

Saturday afternoon greetings! We're going to a lecture at Miami University in Oxford this evening. I've done my ankle exercises once today and may try to get another set in before we leave in time to stop for dinner at Skyline Chili on the way.

TOD:

I spent my early teens watching Jon Jory direct at Actors Theater of Louisville. One month, he would direct a crackerjack revival of Wodehouse’s The Play’s the Thing or Barrie’s What Every Woman Knows and the next, he’d be all over the place with a misbegotten Cyrano or Julius Caesar. I don’t know why some succeeded and others failed, but I have such a warm feeling for those days. The Humana New Plays Festival introduced me to new works like Gin Game and Agnes of God. I saw Shaw, Fugard, Preston Jones, Ayckbourn, a special Morning’s at Seven, and so much more.

Are they actually going to do the spit-take in this virus time?
