I was in a restaurant bathroom tonight and noticed something. It’s probably not wise to paint your restroom walls fecal brown.

Just saw this post on Facebook from Jimmy Webb:

On November 11, 1978 - 47 years ago today - Donna Summer’s version of MacArthur Park reached #1, giving both Donna and composer Jimmy Webb a #1 song on the American pop charts (Billboard Hot 100)

The single, Donna's vinyl disco version of the song, from Donna's album Live & More had had become a multi-million selling chart topper. It stayed at #1 for 3 weeks and earned Donna her first nomination for the Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. She became the first female artist of the modern era to have the number one single and album simultaneously on the Billboard pop charts.

How my sisters and I laughed at that strange song. We hadn’t heard the original yet.

The local Burger Boy chain specializes in milkshakes. They have the usual choc-van-straw, but they don’t stop there. Big Red, Dreamsicle, Fruity Pebbles, etc. noticed today they had a Texas Sheet Cake shake, which beat out Biscoff Butter shake.


Malted milk shakes figure quite prominently in a key plot turn in the first episodes of the series ALL HER FAULT. 

So far (we're though episode 3), there are enough twists and turns to make it interesting and even support a possible claim for whiplash - enough to really want to know what happens, but we weren't tempted to binge-watch.

Rehearsal was good and I blocked the entire sixteen-page ending of the show, but not the four songs - happily, I have blocked those already and have a video of what we did. We have to make some track adjustments, too, to accommodate the staging. That's a big chunk and we'll definitely get all the songs done for that sequence and I think we'll even have time to drill it several times.

I'd bought some lox and bagels at Gelson's and that was my snack with pill three.

I wrote a poor eBay idiot a scathing response earlier. He's been messaging me about the last of the Kiki's cels and I was super nice and obliging as he kept asking question after question, asking for more photos, wanting to be sure it was real, did I have this, did I have that - I wasted a ton of time with him giving him everything he asked for or at least answering his endless questions. He asked me if anyone had made an offer yet and I said no, but that eight people had it in their cart - that wasn't correct, it was a mistaken assumption when it was just that eight people were interested potential buyers - same exact thing, really. He then accused me of lying and that there were only five interested buyers and no one had it in their cart and the only way I could see these things was the way everyone else could, by going to the item page.

Total BS. I have a seller page in which I can see everything - how many views, how many interested buyers, all of it. I wrote him back and told him I found his tone offensive, that I'd been nothing but gracious with him. He'd gone on and on how there were similar cels for the same price. I said show 'em to me. Of course, he can't. I mentioned the Heritage Auction prices and he said Heritage was a sham.I then realize I'm having a discussion with someone who clearly has a chunk of their brain missing.

I told him to go buy one of the other ones for what I'm charging even though they don't exist. Yes, there are some cels at that price, but none like mine. The ones like mine are going from 5 to 10K. He said he was still sort of interested and that he'd think about it more. I told him that under no circumstances would I sell it to him and to go and bother someone else.

I have a dermatology appointment next Tuesday.

I would be more concerned about being able to take a hot shower, but that's just me.

Sad to read that the Farmer's Almanac is ceasing publication after 208 years.

The Old Farmer's Almanac, however, will continue. That is based in New Hampshire.

Oh.  It's a different one.

I just had to schedule four WEEKS of an IV drip for this new thing my neurologist wants me to try. I did but what a pain in the ASS it is. Supposed to start next week, however, after reading the possible side effects, I'm gonna have to have a conversation with the doctor and maybe not start this until after The Altruist opens.


:( Vibes that the treatment can wait.

~~~SUPER DITTO!!~~~

CHESS on Broadway earned over $2-million last week.

"Chess Debuts in The $2 Million Club, and More From Last Week's Broadway Grosses
After several sleepy weeks on the Main Stem, grosses saw a seven-figure increase last week—is the winter rush finally upon us?"

Wow!  But can that be sustained until it turns a profit?
