Austin TX trying to get a watch battery replaced: 6 stores response: either furious that they can’t help (or that I asked them something they can’t do) OR so sad and apologetic that they can’t help I think they’re gonna cry. One woman at Macy’s gave me her cell number in case her suggestion didn’t work. Sweet but… A little overkill.

I figured out why the player on my websites weren’t playing TDF-EP14 - um. I didn’t tell them to. But now up! iTunes still not showing it tho. Weird. It’s an outrage, I won’t pay. Right - they’re free. By the way - thanks for the donations received last week - I will be asking again next YEAR for new donations. I think I need to go the $40/mo level to get enough...

I did get to meet my 10yr old crush, Steve Landesberg, a couple years ago. Just in passing, at the improv. I was hoping to meet him for reals one day. He was a funny funny guy on that there television, far away from really ever knowing him. My condolences to his friends and family. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/star-steve-landesberg-friendly-funny-62054

For the first time I will encourage, if, FOR SOME reason, I don’t respond to your email to me at jackie@jackiekashian.com, that you mssg me HERE or at FB. I usually, and forever - dislike the scattering of messges. I never know if I’ve responded and gotten all of them. But - I have switched webhosts so… there MIGHT be a delay. If you FEEL that delay - mssg me here, twitter, FB -...

Recording new DORK Forest today with Marcia Wallace - with so much street cred I shall blog my fandom. The fact that she is the voice of Mrs. Krabapple on The Simpsons is what everyone knows now… but she’s been a working Actress for a long time and is freaking great in everything. What I’m saying is that I’m a Marcia Wallace Dork. She was the secretary on the original Bob...

Let me tell you bakers something. baking is fiddly and a pain in  the neck. I appreciate your work b/c I tend to just read directions and throw things in pots. that is NOT how baking is done. Baking is chemistry. and I passed chemistry by the grace of God and Mr. … dang… i can’t remember his name. HE WAS PATIENT. Sugar Cookie weird taste averted - will cut them into shapes next.
