President’s Day – the Paper Plate was closed, but driving a cab was profitable today. In case you didn’t know, I’ve been driving during the day, and it’s mostly doctor runs and grocery calls, so no weirdos. Mostly. Except for the second to last run today, involving a couple of cross dressing show “girls” headed for work, it was a busy and boring day.

Until about noon, that is. The news started pouring in. TMBWitW’s cardiologist gave her a mostly clean bill of health – with the exception of a vitamin D deficiency, even her BP was in the normal range. My sister called. She Who Must Be Obeyed is, in the parlance of Hospice, actively dying. I had been planning on going to the Old Pueblo on Saturday; now it looks like I’ll be there Wednesday morning until … which means, of course, that anything I had on the platter for shows, trains, music, practice, whatever, is now on indefinite hold.

I’ll be off the grid for a while. Unless, of course, I can get access to an internet connection and I can remember my passwords. Please keep the family in your prayers and good thoughts.

Chat ya later…
