W.C. Fields: "I've never struck a girl--not even my own dear mother!"--The Golf Specialist

Fields: "Have you ever had this tooth pulled out before?...  It wont hurt--much"--The Dentist

Fields: "I've never hurt a man, beast or child, except when I had to"--The Barber Shop

"I'll see you in my dreams."

"Not if I see you first!"

--ibid.

Dreamed of visiting the campus of my alma mater Mt. Allison University at the start of a school year; Marie Osmond being among the new students; a hockey player incurring a penalty for hooking.

Saw a DVD of half a dozen W.C. Fields shorts.  When they made Fields, they broke the mold!

Dinner was Chinese food.  My fortune cookie said "Someone is watching out for you."

Saw the DVD of the first act of a sparkling Glyndebourne production of Rossini's opera La Cenerentola.

Baked whole wheat bread overnight.

Finally printed out the transcript of my interview with Ljilliana the psychologist. (I'm not looking forward to reading it.)
