I am so in love with Simone and her cubs!

That's so cool!  The next suggested video was a longer one posted by the same person:

Thanks to all for the patented HHW vibes.

Procedure went well...clean bill of health....and kudos to my surgeon from the Doctor performing said invasion.

Back in from 3-5 years....so I guess since it's been 4 1/2 years since my surgery....I can say REMISSION.

Congrats, Jrand!! ;D

I have that recording of The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat.  I first heard it in and have had it since I was in college, back in the 1980s.  I enjoyed it, but I didn't (and certainly still don't) know what to listen for on the technical side of recordings.

I read the book and found it fascinating.   It wasn't until after I read the book that I learned Sack's suffered from prosopagnosia, or face-blindness – the inability to recognize faces.

I just remembered that I had read that, also...now that you mention it.

I didn't even know Facebook was down most of the day ;D

Neither did I.  I don't get onto Facebook until I get home at night.

Had Taco Bell for lunch - tried the VERY calorie-friendly crispy chicken taco thing and it was surprisingly really tasty - mild version - will have it again - only 290 calories.

What a coinkydink!  That's exactly what I had for lunch today, too!

I found out that the only difference between the regular and the spicy is two little pieces of jalapeños.

BK told you about our MEGA thunderstorm. Some of the LOUDEST thunder I've ever heard. And yet very little rain. The rain gods seem confused, but at least this was a start. Of course, I was trying to meditate at the time.

TOD:
Perry Polski, a high school World Lit teacher who had a HUGE influence on me. What an outstanding teacher he was! And a very kind person.

BK, who, during those angst-filled teen years when everyone felt they must copy their friends, had the vision, courage, and commitment to both know his path and follow it. I don't know if I could have succeeded as a young female in computer science without those lessons.

Two of the best women, best people, I have had the privilege to know.  I measure myself against their examples and constantly fall short, but I try.

I have thought about the TOD and I also have to say that HHW and MR BK have been an influence in my life.

I have learned much from the writings here and in his books, and of course I have learned much from the denizens here at the most popular site on all of the internet.

So there!

And yes, DR JANE, I can hardly believe it myself....my surgery was in May, 2017.   As I told Dr. Buckley today - he was there the day of my diagnosis in April, 2017:  "On that day I don't think either of us would have truly thought I would still be here today having a conversation with you."

He gave credit to my surgeon Dr. Tsai, which I do as well....and Dr. Buckley today said - something I hadn't known or asked about - that I had three tumors and more than HALF of my c-l-n had been removed.....

I'm still here.

And we are all the better for it!  Yay for remission! And thank you for the kind words.

Topic of the Day:  my family (of course), my middle school choir teacher Mrs. Baker, because that's when I realized that I loved singing (even though I don't have a great voice...it's probably better than average, but certainly not professional caliber); and my high school choir teacher, Mrs. Poff.

Also, a lot of theater friends too numerous to mention (or remember ::) ) who encouraged me and cast me in shows over the years.

The sister of my friend Bill (see my TOD post) is in town for a convention. I haven’t seen Sue in decades, but fell back like it was yesterday. She was with her coworkers and we all had a nice time.
