I’ve done three racks of dishes and am on a second load of laundry.

I'm up, I'm up - seven hours of sleep.

She of the Evil Eye has arrived and I shall now be on my way to have a light breakfast.

I don't know anything about hatches. Or mizzenmasts.

Gas at Costco today was $2.47.

I never found any hatches or mizzenmasts, I'm sure we have some around here somewhere -- but I got done what I could. Just a couple more things to do before the end of the day, then it'll be time to sit and wait it out tomorrow.

The power companies are already covering their ASS by predicting long power outages. We've got the generator, but if line go down we'll probably lose internet/phone/TV -- but as long as the cell towers are operating, we'll be able to connect via the cell phones. (I'm covering my own ASS by saying all of this just in case...)

Henri Lite vibes for the HHW'ers on the East Coast.

On castrecl today, there was an interview among Frank Rich, Stephen Sondheim and Jonathan Tunick. In that, Rich recalls Sondheim inviting him to the opening of London's Company and the opening night party afterward. In my day, that would have raised a boatload of ethical questions when Rich later wrote about Sondheim's shows, especially as a critic. Anybody else see any possible conflict of interest there?

Horse racing DR DRUXY. But then I don't suppose their humor was targeted to Midwestern elementary students.

DR JOHN G here is a typical episode of IGAS......with the panel I remember most.
Jayne Meadows and Faye Emerson had their time on the show - but for glamour and fun I'll take Betsy & Bess anytime!

DR Vixmom will there be more money until you return to work or is this all of it?

Jrand, I could not agree with you more about Jack Carter - couldn't stand him - abrasive and completely unfunny.

Back from bacon and eggs and a half-a-pancake at Uncle Bernie's deli in Encino, and then a visit to a good used CD store, where I got some very cheap used CDs - all classical. They also stamp cards for your purchases so that after ten squares are stamped you get a free whatever. I had two cards that were almost full, so today filled both and I saved quite a bit of money.

I'm listening to the seven Prokofiev symphonies again - they're incredible.

The news is blasting out warnings regularly this afternoon. I worry more about DR vixmom on Long Island and former DR Ben on lower Manhattan than I do about myself.

I was looking through our telescope and spying on the lawn party two buildings over when a woman looked at me and waved.

Why not just give her cat his own chair
