Well, you've read the notes, the notes were on the fast track, and now it is time for you to post until the fast track cows come home.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

Those HHW Vibes that worked for others never worked for me with that damned Ohio property and two greedy brothers, so I won't wish you healthy vibes, BK. I don't want to kill you.

What I will do instead is wish you healthy and wealthy days and that damned Covid virus far, far away from you.

I slept well for a while with Thatch and Annabelle beside me. I like this sleeping situation.

Then, around 12:30, Annabelle left the bed and never returned, and I spent too much of my waking time waiting for her return. I think she wanted to sleep in the new Amazon carton that arrivedyesterday afterenoon. Around 5:00 there was a crash; something fell or was knocked over by either Stella or Annabelle. I must go in search of the mess after kitty cleanup.

Good morning, DR Laura. Are you planning to see Let the Good Times Roll in Phoenix?

TOD: Pasta salad. And potato salad.

But these days I just eat a Big Ass Salad, which is mostly lettuce, plus whatever vegetables I happen to have in the house.

They say it's the world premiere. I'm surprised anyone has heard of it.

I break salads into two categories: sandwich and table, so here are my thoughts:
Sandwich: shrimp. tuna, chicken
    On my first trip to New York, Dec. 1966, I discovered the inexpensive Chock Full o' Nuts restaurant chain and fell in love with their shrimp salad.
Table: Cobb, tomato & mozzarella, Mexican, three-bean, macaroni, potato

Hmm, stuff that wasn't making sense is suddenly making sense. I have terrible legal problems going on that involve Jack.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.  Something like that only happens two or three times in a person's life!

Last night, I watched a 60-minute documentary about my friend choreographer Phil Chan, his friend ballerina Gina Pazcoguin, and their mission "Final Bow for Yellowface" (https://www.yellowface.org). The film is quite wonderful and moving, with lots of shots of the opening night cast of our ballet Star on the Rise at Indiana University.

It's really excellent.
