I’m spread too thin.
Framed (1947) is a noir I somehow missed until now and, like them all, it’s entertaining, hits the spot like comfort food and there’s always a scene speeding around in a sedan.

In elementary school, some of the toughs were jealous that I could draw. They felt I had a skill that set me apart from them and paved a good future for me. Ha! #tbt

Seeing HR appear in a meeting is never a good sign. It’s been about 10 years, but I’m back on the dole, after yesterday’s Veteran’s Day Massacre. Anyone who wants to buy anything I’ve drown or painted is welcome to it for whatever price they can afford.

Wish I could remember anything about Oh Dad, Poor Dad, Mamma’s Hung You Up in the Closet and I’m Feelin’ So Sad (1967), but I was too busy drawing.

Ada FaceTimed me while I was on the toilet. I answered the call, trying to keep the camera only on my face, but she knew. She was at the front door and needed me to let her into the house. When I did, she asked if I washed my hands.

There’s little that brings me back to ‘70s Manhattan more than watching (and endlessly rewatching) Diary of a Mad Housewife (1970). I had such a crush on Carrie Snodgress.

The Great Escape (1963) is one of those movies that was always on TV when I was home from school. It came on after the cartoons and before my Stouffer’s French Bread Pizza was ready to come out of the oven.
