And others.

Jeanne, I have Bookish on reserve at the library.

John G. · « **Reply #184 on:** January 31, 2026, 08:43:45 PM »

I’m back at the shelter for one more night.

John G. · « **Reply #185 on:** January 31, 2026, 08:44:09 PM »

Been a long day.

Variety says Melania will open in third place for the weekend with a projected $8.2 million debut.

So far, RogerEbert.com has not reviewed it.

John G. · « **Reply #189 on:** January 31, 2026, 08:46:57 PM »

I wonder if they will.

Glad I stayed home. Six new pages, and I'll try for two or three more after another small break and a shower.

Just ordered a bowl of chicken soup and a grilled cheese sandwich from Mel's. They had a seven dollar off promotion, so it was pretty cheap. We like pretty cheap.

Home again. Last night at the shelter. The forecast for the next 10 days shows no evenings below freezing.

There was some drama tonight, but the regulars handled it easily.

John G. · « **Reply #194 on:** January 31, 2026, 10:50:26 PM »

Bless their ongoing efforts to help these people.

I’m knee-deep in an early Ann Patchett novel called Run. It’s a mixed effort. I like the story, but something about it seems to have been over- and underwritten. She wasn’t in full command of the gifts displayed in later books.

John G. · « **Reply #196 on:** January 31, 2026, 10:53:51 PM »

BL, glad Muse Margaret is still in love with the book.

I’m exhausted and need to be at church in a few hours.

John G. · « **Reply #198 on:** January 31, 2026, 10:54:31 PM »

But first …

Gratuitous post 199!

Hot sandwich post 200!

John G. · « **Reply #201 on:** January 31, 2026, 10:55:16 PM »

Good night, all.

Wrote another couple of pages and that should do it for this evening. I do have just a couple of little things to figure out as I head towards the end, but they're minor.

bk · « **Reply #203 on:** January 31, 2026, 11:28:42 PM »

Soup was good, grilled cheese less so.

bk · « **Reply #204 on:** January 31, 2026, 11:28:54 PM »

Now I must write some damn notes.

Due to lack of ticket sales, the Screen Machine's premiere of MELANIA has been relocated to a more appropriately sized venue. Sorry for the inconvenience.

George · « **Reply #206 on:** January 31, 2026, 11:32:25 PM »

Oh, and I'm home.

George · « **Reply #207 on:** January 31, 2026, 11:34:24 PM »

I'm gonna ketchup on today's posts, then I'll do some posting of my own.

Around 2:00 Ann and Jen arrived with a newly constructed cat tree an d carted off to the basement the old one. Annabelle and Stella claimed it immediately while Thatch is still debating if he likes it.

Very nice of Ann and Jen...as usual. When we can post pictures again, can you post a picture of it?
