Ran out of Diet Coke so ordered some via Instacart - no delivery fee and ten bucks off the order.

I saw there's a Pizza Hut not all that far away on 8th Avenue, and rediscovered that I like it a lot about a week or two ago.  Skip tried it tonight, and he enjoyed it too.

It's good to have another go-to place for fast food.

And they have pretty thorough calorie counts online, which can be very helpful, when in a calorie counting frame of mind.

DRAT! THE CAT!  possible spoiler


I was surprised by how emotional the show became in the second act.  That aspect really snuck up on me.  An extra treat from a show that I was enjoying so much already.

If bots, yeah, there's no real information they can get here - they can't see profiles, only posts and they can't respond without my approving them - we do get bots trying to join, but I never approve them. We're pretty safe here, although I have asked our host to make the site secure, just to have that extra protection.

But that won't stop bots from requesting the join, right?

I think the emotion is due to the brilliance of Sydney, really. The first time I blocked the short scene leading into I Like Him and then the two moves during the song, when we ran it and she sang that for the first time, we ALL got teary-eyed.

I can't get over the number of bots asking to join our little class facebook page.

We have an advantage though because we know all the names of our classmates.

In the scheme of things, only a few bots have tried to join. I always e-mail them and tell them to hit reply so we KNOW they're not a bot and then to tell me how they found us. No response ever comes unless it's a legit person.

I think the chicken breasts AND the biscuits had probably been sitting there for hours. I feel a little nauseous right now.

From DR John:

Apparently BOOP! and Smash were invited to perform on the Tonys for $300,000. Both shows said yes, and both were then told no. WTF?

$300,000!  Is that normal?

Crazy and that's the cheapest premium for miles 4.69. Would have been 4.59 with cash but they weren't doing the cash/cc thing last time I was there.
