At least since 20 August 2013. Nope, no seasickness. It’s a smoothing sailing with the Beatles on board.

Certain rectangles with my face and/or name on them, my library card, apartment key, the first dollar I ever made playing music (no other cash in my wallet at the moment and that dollar lives permanently in one of the little pockets. I should add that it’s the only dollar I’ve made playing music so far, but there will be more to come!), and my Ringo ticket stub! a-hard-days-night-ringo-10

Edit two hours later: and my picks! How could I forget those?

I don’t think anyone answered @Sky999’s question. Well, hum, it feels weird to say no, but we use a different insurance company.

Have you changed all your calendars to November? I was in the post office the other day, and one of the calendars was still on September.

I’m asking a second one too. What is the theme for your calendars? I have The Beatles in my closet and as my day planner, Greek Islands on the refrigerator, and black lab puppies at my desk at work.

I have an (unofficial) Beatles calender that one of my friend’s sisters gave me after I gave her my old Snow White costume (long story that one). I never bothered to hang it up though. The calender in my kitchen just has the date, a thought of the day and a historical fact: Today is the day Elizabeth Taylor divorced for the 7th time.

I gave up calendars a long time ago because I kept forgetting to change the pages over. I still know what day/date it is without looking at one. My mom bought me a Beatles one once for Christmas several years ago. It was Yellow Submarine themed on the inside and looked like a vinyl (and shaped like one) on the outside.

@Ahhh Girl I use a different insurance company too. The catchphrase is catchy though.

@Ahhh Girl:

Did you know the expression ”wine-dark sea” appears dozens of times in the Iliad and the Odyssey? I bet you did. Paul quoting Homer –cool!

I don’t have a calendar. Collected Beatles one’s years ago when you got one a year but gave up after there started being 45 different ones to choose from.

I’m happy just to know what day it is.
