aaaagh!!

 I learned something new today


    At least I think I did.

    I post this little effort at entertainment on Facebook.  But you can also get to it tdinten@blogspot.com.

    If you go to that and comment on an entry, I don't see it because I did not realize you could do t hat.

    So Donna, if you are reading this, I appreciate the information on the mobility site.  Yes, it was 6 months ago and I apologize.

    So, that is new.

    I also saw a lot of talent on the VCCT stage tonight.

    They did Beanstalk, a retelling of the fairy tale. 

    I think there were 120 kids in the play....ok, maybe not that many, but they were all talented and entertaining.

    Jackie and I were sitting at a table, and a couple with their young kids asked if the other chairs were free.  We said yes.

    I asked them if they had gone to Lincoln School, and the man said he was from out of town, but his wife went to school in Rochelle.

    I asked her which school.

    She said Tilton, then she looked at me and said, "Mr. Dickow?"

    Yes, she was in my class a few years ago. I did ask her name and I r remember her vividly as a sweet girl.

    That, and the Cubs win over the Orioles (sorry, Pam) made up the bulk of my day.    

    And I am not sure how well I will sleep.  I had a coffee at 2 and a Coke at the play, so I may be hyper caffeinated.  But I did get a chance to talk to Camryn when buying the pop, so that was nice.

Peace and Love
