FIVE!!!!!

[singdaw]

Good night, friends.

[Ginny]

Fortunately, I was able to get 2 very important phone calls done before the noise started:  one to the dentist about the tooth I broke last night and the other to the orthopedist about the tendonitis that has flared up in my left leg.  I see the dentist tomorrow and the ortho on Wednesday.  Just what I needed this week...

~~~Tooth and Tendonitis Vibes for Ginny!!~~~

DITTO!

Thank you, DRs George and Jane!

[Ginny]

DR Ginny, sorry to hear about the tooth and leg problems, but glad to hear you were able to get the needed appointments so quickly. Vibes the next few days so smoothly.

Thank you, DR Jeanne.

[Jane]

'night

[John G.]

Getting my reading together for the trip back. Got the rest of Stephen King’s latest as well as The Bookshop of Second Chances and Laura Hillenbrand’s Unbroken.

[John G.]

And with that, it’s time for bed.

[John G.]

Good night, all.

Finished with my viewing.

I pulled an all-nighter in college to finish a paper that was due. The next morning, bright and early, I had a voice lesson. I got out exactly 2 notes when the professor shut it down and ordered me out of his studio. So evidently it was quite audible.

I guess I don’t understand this?

And I had two very nice taxi drivers, so it all went quite well. And no anxiety or panic attacks.

I am glad everything went smoothly.

My medical appointment this morning was interesting.

They sprayed a numbing agent up my nose, then inserted a scope which snaked down until the doctor was able to see my vocal folds. I decided to watch along on the screen - I mean, why not?  It was a bit unpleasant; like an extended COVID test.

In any case, the good news is: no tumors, abrasions, swelling, or other impediments on my vocal cords. They're moving fine. So no surgery required.

The doctor is recommending vocal therapy, with which she has seen positive results. This is hospital-based. Probably a minimum of 4 sessions, and exercises to do at home, of course. So they'll schedule that. I wonder if it will be a ruinous cost.

Anyway, I'm relieved that it's nothing more serious.

Great news, singdaw!

TCB, yesterday Larry posted a story about a cat that had a job and wore an ID badge. Thus my question last night.

Okay, now I understand.  I just thought you were having a flight of fancy.

[TCB]

So, I had a craving for Marie Callender's today. Back around June 15th, in advance of no masks for vaccinated folks, they had a big sign saying they'd be back open for indoor dining the week following the 19th. Today, I drove over there to find takeout only and a sign that said indoor dining was only Friday through Sunday from five to nine. I'm done with this branch forever. They are literally the ONLY restaurant that's not fully open and I think people are so annoyed with them that they'll ultimately close. You can't be stupid about this stuff  and they've truly been the stupidest in the neighborhood and right from the start.

Perhaps they don’t have enough staff to do more than that?

Medical vibes for DR Ginny!

 A three hour and twenty-four minute gap.

It happens.

I blame BK today!  He posted ONE BIG post instead of a whole bunch of little posts.

Then we would have had a three hour and twenty-four minute gap on page 57.

Well...that's a separate issue.

So, I went to Target last night after work and bought two CDs that have bonus tracks exclusive to those Target releases.

[George]

One was Barbra Streisand's Release Me 2, which has one bonus track:  "When The Lovin’ Goes Out of the Lovin’."

[George]

The other was Jennifer Nettles' Always Like New, which has two bonus tracks:  "Not While I'm Around" and "She Used To Be Mine."

[George]

I'd never heard of Jennifer Nettles, but if someone is going to put out a full CD of nothing but Broadway songs (and not just the most well known "greatest hits"), she can't be all bad.

[George]

These are the tracks on Always Like You:

1. Wouldn't It Be Loverly
2. Sit Down, You're Rockin' the Boat
3. Wait for It
4. Almost Like Being in Love
5. It All Fades Away -- feat. Brandi Carlile
6. There's a Sucker Born Ev'ry Minute
7. Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin'
8. Anyone Can Whistle
9. You Will Be Found
10. Tomorrow

Bonus Tracks:
11. Not While I'm Around
12. She Used To Be Mine
