I guess we'll discuss all the results during my appointment next Wednesday afternoon.

Did you pass the eye photo test?

Vibes you pass the rest of the tests!

I'll know when I see the doctor next Wednesday.  I'm hoping if there's anything urgent, I'll be informed before then.

Freddie, unless I have become completely senile, which is certainly a possibility, I haven't gotten the birthday gift, at least yet :)

Oh, I thought you'd mentioned it in the notes???

It was emailed Dec. 2 to
haineshisway@aol.com

If you didn't get it, check your email.

It was taken by a technician, not a doctor.  I've found that when I get things like X-rays, too, a technician can't give results, but sends it to the doctor.

If any of you have heard the bootlegs of John McGlinn's recording of Babes in Toyland, you've heard the marvelous Wagnerian soprano Margaret Jane Wray singing "The Legend of the Castle." During the 2001 recording sessions at Abbey Road, Margaret was one of the joys in the cast. I adored her.

Her youngest son just posted on Facebook that cancer killed her yesterday. RIP, dear Margaret.

Topic of the Day:  I have vague memories of McDonald's after we moved here to Washington in 1976.  I don't doubt that I just started with the regular hamburgers or cheeseburgers, but I remember getting the Filet-O-Fish and discovering that I really liked it.

DR ChasSmith, ordering “no onions” does the same thing as DR Jane’s “no salt” trick.  You get a freshly made sandwich.

Oh yes! And you'll laugh (or gag), but I order "extra onions" on my quarter pounders for both the extra onions AND the freshly made sandwich. It's well worth doing.

DR FREDDIE it was nice of your doctor to drop by to see you.

And yes you have described the Big Mac exactly.

Of course it was NO Frisch's Brawny Lad.

Or Frisch's BIG BOY, which I believe is the original of that kind of sandwich.

I could, of course, eat one right now.

Actually, cancel that. I could eat one of every single thing everyone has posted about (right now).

This morning I want to look over the prelude for the ballet. Amazon is hopefully delivering a new power cabletoday, and if it works, I hope to scan the mysic tomorrow.


Vibes for accomplishments in 2026 for you, Larry, that match what you accomplished in 2024 and 2025. 

But with more money this time!  :)

Today is the first morning this week I didn't have to get up before dawn. I'm glad that's over.

Is Dawn staying for breakfast, or did she have to get to work as soon as she woke up?

Vibes you are pleased with the new dermatologist, once you find one.

Thanks, Jane.  I did see another dermatologist and she seemed very nice, so, so far, I'm happy.

I don't know when I had my first McDonalds.  I doubted I rushed back.

When we lived in our first house in Reseda there was a McDonalds walking distance.  We would buy a cheeseburger without the meat, take it home and put our own veggie burger in it.  After we had Bryan, and he was old enough, we would go for fries.  Our babysitter worked there and told me to order the fries without salt, then they would have to make a fresh batch.  He was right, they were much better.

Jane, did you know that McDonald's fries used to be fried in beef tallow, and even now they still contain "natural beef flavor"? :-\

Thursday afternoon greetings!  I had to be up & outta here for an early haircut appointment.  Later this afternoon Richard and I are going to see “Merrily We Roll Along” on the big screen.

Very cool!  I need to find out where and when it's playing around here!

TOD: I can't remember when or where I had my first McDonald's. Our town was much more a Burger King town. We also had a Burger Chef and a Hardee's nearby. But the best local place was an independent called Bill's, with lovely grilled onions on the burger.

My first job besides my paper route was a grill cook for Hardee's. I was fired after two weeks because I wasn't fast enough for fast food.
