TOD

In my growing up years I knew only two things -- the fish sticks served in the school cafeterias on Fridays, and tuna salad sandwiches. Fish and chips would have been next, from whatever fast food chain came to town first.

I was depraved on account of I was deprived. It wasn't till after my college years that I got to know the pleasures of actual, you know, "fish" and other seafood. Even now, I should eat it much more often than I do, but the meat aesthetic is ingrained and it's still not always the first thing I think of. But I love it.

I've seen the changing of the guard, but never the girding of the loins.

I'm up, I'm up - six hours of sleep. I was awakened at 8:15 because the cell phone was ringing. I didn't get to it in time, but called whoever it was right back. The movers. They were at the warehouse waiting for someone to let them in. I couldn't believe it. I told them I had nothing to do with the warehouse or that part of the move and to please call the helper, who has known about this for a week now. Of course, on the computer, there's no way to see her number in our texts, so I suggested they call their boss, who definitely had her number. Meanwhile, I texted her (no response, naturally) then got the number on the phone text because on the phone it gives you that information. I called them back and they'd already called her and she said she was on her way and would be there in a few minutes. Hopefully, that happened. It shouldn't slow anything down as long as they got going by eight-thirty. Hopefully, the rest of this day will go smoother.

Jane, I meant to thank you for the information about the ventless dryer. It was an interesting little video.

I am glad you thought so.  I have heard about them & wondered how they work.

DR Jeanne I follow CALL THE MIDWIFE on Facebook and can see it is airing there.  I googled your question and the response is not until September here.  That seems like a long time.

I love that we no longer have to go to the recycling center and just carry everything down to the bins in the garage.  The boxes need to be broken down and put in flat.

It's been a morning. Annabelle will not eat today and I'm wonderign if her allergies include pollen, since the pollen count is out of control today. So, she's been a handful, while Thatch and Stella to show how much they love me by climbing all over the score Joshie brought me to work on, sleeping on it, and smothering me with affection.

Joshie came by and climbed the Big Ladder to put away a lot of cat food and I have a computer table again now the cartopns of Fancy Feast are put away.

If Joshie could stop by on some kind of regular schedule, it would almost be like having Val back!  :)

Regardless of the type of business, that kind of management philosophy never gets that kind of thing right.

T.O.D.

I've never really enjoyed fish...of any kind.

Thankfully, my wife never gives me any.

I am currently working on updating the last three of my books that are out-of-print:

THE MUSICAL: From Broadway to Hollywood
ONE GOOD FILM DESERVES ANOTHER: A Survey of Movie Sequels
MAKE IT AGAIN, SAM: A Survey of Movie Remakes

I've finished the first two and sent off to the publisher, and I'm almost halfway through the third.

Much harder job than I thought it would be.

I'd rather be writing another one-person play.

We, finally got our fence fixed...after a car crashed into it.

It was a student drive, who pressed down on the gas instead of the brake.

A car plowed into the stop sign next door. There are plenty of car pieces scattered across the neighbors’ lawn. I hope everyone was OK.

That took a long time.  Aside from how it looked was it a problem having an insecure fence?
