Playlist for Sunday, Dec. 2, 2018: The Devil Wears Walmart

I feel like crawling into a bread pudding. My version of that dessert includes eggnog and amaretto and panettone, which makes for a warm (if sticky) blanket. Okay, now I don't want that. I just want those vulgar fleecy reindeer PJs. And Swiss Miss with tiny marshmallows. Screw Fashion/Gourmet. I want Cozy.

The wind seems to be whistling INSIDE my house. And it's November. I guess I need to put up my Black, Depressing, Thermal curtains. The funereal ones that keep my leaky old windows from snowing on me. Maybe if I line them with those reindeer PJs, I'll stand a chance at both warmth and better Fashion than off the rack Walmart. 

New tires that climb snowy embankments: Check.
Plowing staff: On speed dial.
Shovel/Rock Salt: Somewhere!
Hats/Mittens/Parkas/Mucklucks: Mismatched, but at the ready
Positive Attitude: Well, it was around here yesterday!!!

I'm just gonna play Broadway. And speaking of that street, I am twiddling- thumbs anxious to receive the cast album of The Prom. Brooks Ashmanskas, Christopher Sieber, Beth Leavel...those people can't allllll be wrong, right? It's gotta be at least decent. I lifted 2 songs off Youtube to sample this Sunday, and the rest will come ASAP, but fingers crossed. Jesse Green of the Times said: "With its kinetic dancing, broad mugging and belty anthems, it makes you believe in musical comedy again." Sounds like Something Rotten!, but you buried that one, Jess.

Otherwise it's themes and Jews and Spam and Babs and tooooo toooo! Survive the week, will ya? And then pounce on 2 On The Aisle, come Sunday. We'll cozy up; maybe the wind and white will cease and we can wear heels and cute jackets again. Think Vogue and Vanity Fair. And burn the Fleece. :)
