Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

Is it me, or did the production value on Electric Company used to be higher? I remember it being a lot of bright colors and puppets.

although I enjoyed the song, I thought that the blocking was lame.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

courtesy of the NEW Electric Co., which is really enjoyable and I am so glad mac is watching.

I am glad to hear that!

Sophia, your show sounds like a killer.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I hope that commute time isn't going to be a regular thing, ChiKat.

On a good day, it's 50 minutes. I started a new job this school year, but I'm not certain I'm going to stay in it more than a year, so I didn't want to move closer thinking I may have to move again next summer. So, I'm going to have to suck it up for awhile. If they'd finish the construction when they say (supposedly Nov/Dec), it ought to be okay. Otherwise, when snow comes?? Yikes.

I went through a fear-of-dying phase when I was six or seven.

Me, too. Huh. Wonder if that's the age the concept of mortality connects?

So one of my friends had a stroke on the weekend. I am totally in shock. She's only 42, and her blood pressure is healthy--I have been envious of her ability to eat lots of cheese and maintain a 119/70 BP. I don't know what's going on. The good news is that she's 90% recovered already. The bad news is she's off all week for a barrage of tests.

ETA: This is Christine for the few Buffistas that met her.

Oh Sue! Give her my best.

A dear friend of mine, similarly healthy, had one at 41. His recovery has been very very good. Please drop me a note if there is anything you want me to ask him or if Christine could use a hand with something -- I don't live that far away.

Oh my god -- that's so scary!
