Actually, Ace won't do it any more, either (liability issues). Had to find an Aubuchon's back in Beverly, MA, who said THEY would, but that's 90 mins drining each way. By the time it's all said and done, might as well just follow your lead and learn to do it myself.
Your note about CVS texting to offer a shingles shot on your b'day actually made me laugh out loud. What a bunch of over-achievers they are. I just got a text wanting to auto-refill a Rx they'd filled on Saturday. Pay them no mind.
As re: 60 is coming, the best thing I got from my 60th was a fridge magnet that said, "I'm this many (hand with extended middle finger) times 60."
Keep on truckin' and writing and wiring, kid. You're doing great!
In case this is amusing to anyone, I'll note that while reading this quickly on my phone, I inferred that the redacted letters between the "f" and the "y" were "uck". Reacting to this version of the post's title, I then thought, "I agree completely! No one should ever call her that! Why would anyone call her that? Is that even a word?"
1) Hahahaha. So delightful. You should teach seminars on humorous writing.
2) At first sight of this title in my email, I hastened to the keyboard to warn that you'd spelled 'froggy' wrong.
3) Erma was the Bom. Our entire family read her .
4) Are those cheese fries in the cheese lounge trash?
5) Maybe the lamp-waster secretly desires a less volcanic-ash-colored lampshade?
6) I won't say a thing about that F-word, and will even fix those crazy eyeglasses for you--maybe in trade for you fixing one of my lamps?
Thank you for your creative service, and for living the glamorous life I never could.
Before you jump … I want to help ….fifty is nothin. A veritable Bebe.
I turn SEVENTY EIGHT in ELEVEN DAYS. No need to send mood enhancers or tissues. I already have plenty of big scarves and sensible shoes.
I just want to laugh. Which I thank you for.
Happy birthday to you!! 78 is the new 58, I hear.
My birthday was on eclipse day. We are from NJ and drove to Montreal to see it. It was a great day! It was my tenth 51st birthday.
Happy belated 10th 51st! What a great way to celebrate.
"the misconception that authors lead very glamorous lives" you make it look glamorous Jane Happy Bday : )
I turned 50 yesterday, and it feels like both an arrival & a departure. Happy birthday to both of us!
That's an excellent way of putting it. Happy birthday!!
P.S. My lamp just died. Seriously. There is no lamp repair place any more.
There has to be a way! Do you know where the problem is?
Yes, the answer is Ace Hardware. Apparently some of them still do this kind of repair. But my first thought was of you, lol

"IS THAT GUY SLEEPING? I THINK HE’S SLEEPING.."
Wait! Trump was in your class? Kidding, but...

I was in your session and I thought you were 40. When I heard you had kids I thought, 42. Very happy you are 50!
Nice try. But 78 is almost 80. EEEEEEK
