It's 2:27

Hoorah for Marla Gibbs.
(She starred on 227.)
I asked a question on Rosie O'Donnell's blog tonight, under my cat's name.
As per WWP87's request, here is the exchange. (Rosie solicits questions, and answers a bunch at a time.) And she answered it. I'm not sure what this means to me, but I don't think it's anything good.
Wendell writes:

Rosie,
I was just thinking about you on the ‘95 Academy Awards. “Just buy the BLEEPING monkey.” Almost laughed out loud. The whole segment was one of the funniest things I’ve seen. Do you remember?

HER RESPONSE:

i do



I wish I could sleep, but I'm too busy Listening to Prozac.
The three-hour nap I took this afternoon probably wasn't a good idea, but I didn't feel like doing anything else.
Because I have OCD and depression, I need a higher dose than people with depression alone.
But since Prozac has made me a little nuts in the past, I think that's why the doctor wants me to increase the dosage so slowly.
So in a month, I'll be at a therapeutic level.
He offered to give me a sleeping pill but I'm too afraid of never waking up. Or of waking up in the middle of the night and eating raw meat.
I wish 227 was on right now.

Won't you post the Rosie/Wendell exchange?

You are aware of the significance of Rosie's answer, aren't you? Years from now you will look at Wendell and say, "the time you asked Rosie about the "BLEEPING monkey segment. Do you remember?"

Wendell in his very best feline way will respond: i do!

Good luck getting some sleep, I do understand what it is like to want to be sleep and yet be unable to.

I hope you've gotten some good sleep since writing this, Carli! I sometimes suffer from insomnia -- it's no picnic!

Thanks so much for visiting my site from Michele's the other day... I hope you have a wonderful day today.
