Netflix suggested watching the Muppets Movie, so I did. I was kind of surprised since this does not seem to reflect my usual watching habits at all (action movies). But it’s so crazy, it’s actually pretty funny. I loved it!

Location: Dunkin Donuts, Roanoke, Virginia Overweight customer: “How much is in a half- dozen? Is it 12?” Whoa!
I dreamed last night that our old house in Virginia had been remodeled. The remodeling job was really crazy and the sedate blue Colonial had turned into in a hot yellow- orange stuccoed place with weird patterns of windows and a shiny purple and green sculptural glass roof. Anyway, so I drew a picture of [...]
Today we went to Best Buy. It was fun playing with the iMac. We also went to the Thomas Kinkade store. Surprisingly, I couldn’t hate the Thomas Kinkade paintings. (It could have been because yesterday I screwed up my back at the gym and today I was feeble. Not really because I am getting old, [...]

My neighbor stinks. He smells awful. I can smell him through the walls. It is body odor on a whole new level. Or, it WAS. Last year shortly after I moved in I was trying to eliminate his stench with a lavender Glade plug in. It covered the smell but gave me a splitting headache. [...]
Last night I dreamed I was in Ethics class and this is what the professor- a fiftysomething blonde battle-ax- gave us as our ethical scenario: Here’s your scenario: You are in a room with a desk. The desk has a hutch. Your roommate is sitting at the desk. He or she is using your computer. [...]
