My Refrigerator Snores.


1. My refrigerator snores.

2. I put on sun-block if I’m going out.. even in the car… even for 5 minutes.(I have very soft hands for an old lady.)

3. I wash my hair every two days if I’m going out. Every 3 days if I’m not. (How dirty can it get?)

4. I take a shower every day. True! Gross, if you don’t.. For Gosh Sake’s TAKE A SHOWER!

5. I make my bed, hmm. Like never. Also true. Really.. Why?

6. I try to make dinner every night but sometimes we just eat frozen pizza.

7. I think I like hanging with my husband more than he likes hanging with me. 

8. Calling Angels on Broadway for the first time was a fucking trip.

9. My sisters, my brother and my dad call to check on me.

10. Some of my best friends email me just to check in. I love that!

11.I have some N95 masks. We bought them months ago to protect us from the California Fires. I gave one to my oncologist. She said, “This is the BEST GIFT EVER!”

12. I didn’t know how much I liked tequila.

13. I need to stay away from Amazon.com. We have Prime.. so ..free shipping.

14. I’ve just been ripped off by a China company for $30. The website for the purchase has disappeared. Alas.. Not buying from China anymore..  Wait…. Is that even possible??? 

15. One of my best friends made Phil and me masks! 2 each!! Really beautiful. Art.

16. My sister made us each a mask. She put Phil’s initials on his and it is black.. So fashionable. (He looks very hip!!)

17. Red lipstick and red shoes are the bomb. Try it. Everybody comments.

18. I tore a weirdly placed tendon in my left hip. No one can figure out how. Très painful. Seeing an Ortho Surgeon (by phone) on Thursday, because .. what else do I have to do?

19. I really need to stop watching so much news.

20. Netflix, CBS streaming, and Amazon Prime streaming are so cool. We will never get through all this programming. But it is nice to see my actor friends once in a while. Ha.

21. We’ve lost some good friends and colleagues in the last couple of weeks. One was especially close to us. We are grieving alone. 

22. Phil dusted behind the bookshelf. It was quite a project.

23. My blind 95 year old dad called me today to tell me his barber (88) came to my dad’s house and drove him to the barber shop and gave him a haircut and a shave. They are very good friends. I hope they are both free of the virus. Loony old men.

24. This virus is not going to “disappear.”

25. I am committed to doing whatever I am able to do to help. That is a bit limited.

26. At my chemo infusion today City of Hope finally required us to wear masks the entire time. All the infusion chairs were six feet apart. NO guests, even in the waiting room. My husband waited in the car.  =[

27. I am voting for Biden.

28. I spend time telling stories to myself with my tiny ting displays and with my stuffed animals. Makes me happy.

29. People are really stupid and I hate them. (Not You.)

30. Crescent Center Stage. Actors Fund..  Curtain Up Fund  DONATE!

31.  My refrigerator is snoring right now.
