Well, you've read the notes, the notes finished the notes, and now it is time for you to post until the 27 finished cows come home.

I have another grisly day: mopping the bathroom and kitchen, and that will finish up all the pre-inspection work for tomorrow. I may spend the rest of the week in bed recuperating.

Last night, perhaps because of my posts yesterday, I watched the film version of Paul Rudnick's AIDS comedy, Jeffrey, which I first saw Off-Broadway around 1993. I hadn't seen the film in years, and I had forgotten how many friends were in it. It's very funny and touching, but on the minus side, it also brought back too many memories of friends I lost to AIDS. There's a scene in which Bryan Batt's character Darius, who is dying from AIDS, falls on the stairs as he, Patrick Stewart, and Steven Weber are leaving a City Ballet Nutcracker - I think that's the ballet; the sound on Amazon Prime for this movie is terrible - and I was suddenly hyperventilating and weeping through the remainder of the film.

We had thought of going up to the Elephant's Trunk Flea Market this morning, but it's

(wait for it)
                                 raining.

It'll stop this morning, but no fun walking the place on wet ground and in the heat that's coming, so forget it this week.

Today is the first day of our official 4-day heat wave, which will go something like:

Sunday - 90
Monday - 95
Tuesday - 97
Wednesday - 92

Then a drop to 81 on Thursday.

Once upon a time, proactive was not a word. But the language is organic.

I remember liking the film of Jeffrey, just not as much as the play.

Break #1
Kitty cleanup is finished and the things on the bathroom floor are either in the bathtub or sitting in the foyer waiting for the Pooph spray to dry.

DR Jrand, I am sorry to learn about your power. This is not the time for a power outage.

DR John G, I preferred the play, too, but I loved all the star cameos, from Patrick Stewart, whom I preferred over Edward Hibbert, to Robert Klein, Nathan Lane, and Sigourney Weaver.

Break almost over.  I needed to dry off.

Step 2 is vacuuming the bathroom and kitchen floors before I mop (Step 3).

There was a woman sitting behind us who had a former student in the cast. She had been there on opening night in Tempe, when one of the special effects didn't work and they canceled the show 40 minutes in.

She said she was sitting in the balcony that night, and the view of the shipwreck was spectacular -- something we missed sitting in the orchestra. We still thought it was impressive.

I'm retrying my culinary experiment from a couple of weeks ago. I made carrot muffins, zucchini muffins, and berry muffins -- some round and some bars.
