I have my notifications set to only “ping” when someone has quoted me, so I have no idea if anyone is reacting to my posts 🤷‍♀️. It took me 3 tries to write and post this because of the constant page reloading, which has been a problem since before the relaunch. But, hey, we have new emojis!!

i went to a local breakfast/lunch place and ordered a grilled cheese-American cheese, sourdough bread. He’s punching launch codes into the register and I see he’s put in grilled ham & 3 cheese, no ham, no Muenster, no provolone. I asked what? He said they redid the menu last week and there’s no grilled cheese anymore. So I paid for a really overpriced sandwich. And when it was just grilled cheese, you chose between the 3 cheeses offered. If he would have explained about the ham and 3 cheese, I would have just eliminated the ham and had a 3 cheese grilled cheese. Since it was noon, they were slammed and I was so flummoxed by it all, I just let the order stand. But really, eliminating a simple grilled cheese?

The schedule at CBS says Ghosts is on 😊

I do find myself using the Teddy bear when someone needs a hug.

I get the SOTU and March Madness, that means shows just don’t air. It’s the reruns that are annoying! NCIS is in reruns until the end of the month. But they wanted to get on the air, especially for February sweeps and they want to have fresh shows for May sweeps, I guess.

March Madness is only on Th-Sun. They are showing repeats on 3/11 and 3/18.

Our School District has a Foundation that gives Grants to teachers. They sent out their quarterly newsletter. Item #4: “The Foundation Excepting Applications for $26,000 in 2024 Scholarships.” Excepting?

Coca Cola has a new flavor-Spiced. It is raspberry flavored. Not quite on a Dr. Pepper level, but not too bad. I noticed the new flavor on the shelf because they changed the label on Cherry Coke. I read that label carefully to make sure it WAS Cherry Coke and not Diet Cherry Coke, Cherry Coke Zero, or any other variation that was not Cherry Coke.

Episode 8: As Frederick grieves the loss of Clara, Enright receives a letter that pushes Frederick to confront his past; Clara and Davison adapt to life in the North, as Clara grapples with happy memories of home. Season finale (Series finale?)

A repeat tonight ☹️. I would have thought with a shortened schedule we wouldn’t get any repeats, especially since there is no high profile show on against it….

Mmmm-Portillo’s! Welcome BetyBee!

Final season begins April 28!

There has always been speculation about how a Celebrity would do in regular Jeopardy, especially since (it seems) Celebrity Jeopardy questions are a bit easier. I think Ike answered that challenge!

Welcome Jeeves!

I’ve been getting FedEx emails about packages being undeliverable in my Junk folder. Let’s count the ways they could possibly be spam: I didn’t order anything; it’s FedX in the body of the email; the tracking number is not the format that FedEx uses; one came at 5:00 am and said they tried to deliver at 9:09 am (time travel!); and, my favorite, the 2 that are in there now said they tried to deliver at 9:64 am and 9:91 am. They are consistent about trying to deliver in the 9:00 am hour! Oh, also FedEx leaves a post-it on the door, not email.

The NCIS team is in a race against time to find a missing officer who disappears during his wedding proposal.

Nolly, starring Helena Bonham Carter (The Crown, Harry Potter) debuts on PBS on Sunday, March 17, 2024 at 9/8c. The Guardian (UK) calls Bonham Carter’s performance “brilliantly camp” and the series itself “impeccably put together.” Nolly reveals the story of Noele “Nolly” Gordon, one of the most famous faces on British TV in the 1960s and 70s, whose unceremonious firing from her hit show at the height of her career was front-page news. A bold exploration of how the establishment turns on women who refuse to play by the rules, Nolly is an outrageously fun and wildly entertaining ride through Gordon’s most tumultuous years, and a sharp, affectionate, and heart-breaking portrait of a forgotten icon. Along with Academy Award®-nominated Bonham Carter, the cast includes Mark Gatiss (Sherlock, Game of Thrones), Con O’Neil (Happy Valley, Our Flag Means Death), and Augustus Prew (The Morning Show, About a Boy), among others.

For Passport subscribers-episodes of season 13 are dropping early 😊

I think Missy and Sheldon are still 13. The past 2 seasons covered a very short timeline. IIRC, George passes away when they are 14, so next summer. Since this is a short season ender, I think they’ll end it with Sheldon graduating college and then his going back to Germany and George passing away will be in a voiceover montage at the end.

The Shopping Channel forum is now closed

It’s not on this Germany trip that George passes away. It’s a different one where Sheldon is there as a visiting professor. Mary is not with him on that trip.
