The intertubes tell me that I was born on a Tuesday. My mother never tired of telling me that she had to be driven through a blizzard to get to the hospital and that her labor was long. Also that I was more than two weeks late.

Sunday for me. According to Wikipedia, on the day I was born: The Beatles performed the first stadium concert in the history of rock, playing before 55,600 people at Shea Stadium in New York City.
I don't remember it.
And despite the rhyme, I'm not gay, in any sense of the word. I often fear I'm not good, either. I don't know what bonny and blithe mean.

Mmm. I just finished my leftover Chipotle burrito bowl. I frequently like leftover Mexican food better than the original meal.
Gorgeous day here.

I didn't mean for my last post to sound like I'm not happy, because I am. I'm a quiet and contented sort of happy, though, rather than an exuberant or flamboyant sort of happy.
Just didn't want you folks to worry.

Born on a St.Patrick's day Sunday.
Still rainy here. The bleedin' roof is leaking. All the smoked haddock has been eaten. Falafels today.

Still rainy here. The bleedin' roof is leaking. You can't go out and fix it when it's raining. And no sense in fixing it when the rain stops 'cause it ain't leaking then.

Menders probably coming Monday. Hopefully the spongy loft insulation doesn't get too sodden and heavy. That could make quite a mess. The worst has passed now for us down South. Not too floody.

Good luck with repairs, James.
The heart monitor is off and returned to the hospital. I didn’t take off too much skin. 1/2–3/4 lb at most.

Back home after grabbing takeout at Zakia Deli, where today's special was Bazella stew, which unbeknownst to me contained LIMA BEANS! A dozen FIFTEEN of the nasty things! I very nearly ATE one!
I think there should be required package warnings to alert buyers of such hidden horrors. Strong letter to my congressman to follow.

Two things I learned whilst motoring to and from the deli today:
-- There are such things as motorized unicycles. Scary looking, though.
-- French horns have a really low bottom pitch, at least in the hands of Sarah Willis, playing Mozart on the local classical station. I actually wondered if it was a baritone.
