I’ve got a cat named after this bar. It’s the bar of my youth and I remember it fondly. The table in the back right corner was my favorite, it was probably everyone’s favorite of course. I wonder what the story is behind that Blue Devils jersey? I googled it for a bit but didn’t find an explanation. My guess is he simply drank there a lot, or a sadder possibility, he drank there a lot and died and the jersey is there as a memorial.

I heard a bunch of people screaming outside my window last night, but I often hear that. It’s usually a bunch of kids partying or having a drunken argument. I live across the street from a parking garage and people tend to fight at the end of the night when they’re picking up their cars. Except the screams felt more … urgent. I don’t know the backstory, I didn’t look right away, but when I did this guy was laying on the street, not dead, not bleeding, and the police were there questioning everyone around them.

The FDNY came and put him on a stretcher, but no one seemed in any hurry about it. I don’t know what to make of it. I don’t know if this guy is a victim or if he was the source of the trouble.

Finney was crying, so you’ll also hear me periodically telling him it’s okay.

My phone broke. My scanner broke. My camera broke. My doctor dropped my insurance plan (except she might get back on). My teeth are hurting under my new bridge so something it going on (hopefully it won’t involve root canal).

But the results from my CT scan came back and they found absolutely no sign of lung cancer, so YAY. Take that, bad week!! Woohoo!

Also, my camera seems to be unbroken. I just took this shot of Finney and it seems to be working again. Crossing my fingers. Scroll down to see the shot which made me believe my camera was broken.

See? It seems like a possible issue with the shutter? I took this because it was the first Halloween decoration in my neighborhood (non-commercial, that is).

WGBH in Boston is going to premiere a new choral show called Sing That Thing!, “a juried singing competition that will showcase the best amateur choirs in Boston and beyond. Church choirs, high school groups, glee clubs, community choruses, college ensembles — you name it — will be invited into our studios to perform.”

It looks like they’ve changed their plans. It was originally going to premiere in December, but they’ve pushed it back to 2015. Also, there was a link to help fund the series, but I can’t find it now. In any case, it’s a great idea, American Idol/The Voice for group singing! I really hope it happens!

[Video removed because the link no longer works.]

And I only started thinking about what I’m going to wear a couple of days ago. I know the women are going to be wearing dresses for dinner but I’m going with a pair of dressy skinny jeans and a pretty top. A pair of killer boots would clinch it, but I do not own any alas.

What did you wear to your last reunion? Did you even go?

A miracle. Finney and Bleeck resting in the sunlight, in close proximity to one another.
