And now round two is here.    The sky just went from lightening for dawn to pitch black Armageddon.    I really don't need a repeat of last night.  Not sure the basement can handle it.  Ugh.  

Sorry, Val... *stops rain-dancing*  Seriously, I feel for you... when something is wrong with our houses, it is all we can think about. I hope you find a quick resolution.

Anyone heard from @Albert1434?  I hope he's not still ill. Hey, Albert!    and    wherever you are.

He was on GA six minutes ago.

I'm worried about his silence as well. But whenever I check, GA tells me he has been logged-in in the previous few hours.

I'm hoping it's nothing more serious than him binge reading your stories again, Gary.

Hey, Marty.   How's your day?

Good, thanks. Car was in for a service this morning in a small town about 18 km (11 miles) away, so I went for a walk in the nearby woods and along the river that runs through them. Back home a few hours now. Got the roots of two more bushes dug up in the garden. Just taking a break, at the moment.

Your day going well?

Yes, it is. I got some laundry done, watered the plants, wrote for a bit, and read some, too.

For the day that's in it:

🎶 It was the third of June, another sleepy, dusty Delta day.....  🎶

Such a great song. One of my all time favorites... they made a movie about the song, but I can't remember the ending. I'm going to google it now...  

 

Ahh... now I remember... Billie Joe had a gay experience while he was drunk, and then was impotent with his girlfriend... it was 1953...

The movie was also called Ode to Billy Joe. Released in 1976, I have a digitised version of the original VHS movie on my hard drive. Robbie Benson played the part of Billy Joe, and Glynnis O'Connor as the girl. That long since I watched it, though, that I also can't fully remember the ending...

I loved Robbie Benson... he had such a distinct voice and was an excellent actor... and cute....

And I'm sorry you haven't been feeling good, Albert.  

Take all the time off that you need, my friend. You really had me worried, though. ❤️

[Marty]

Are you feeling better now?

 

[Albert1434]

I am feeling so so but good enough to be here

Good.

Now I'm sorry, but I have to get back to editing a chapter for someone. I've had it for ages, and feel guilty I haven't finished it and sent it back to the author.

Well that is a good idea

I had actually switched from the editing to here, when I got a pop-up notification to say that you had replied in CoTT2.

I was excira-and-delira! (That's an Irish way of saying "excited and delighted")

[Albert1434]

Then that is a fun word Marty
