Back At Work

Yesterday was the first day since I got home on Monday that I felt rested enough to do some work.
I put down on "paper" a general story outline for the screenplay that I've been hired to write, then sent it off to the "producer" for his in-put, which I await. Assuming that he likes it, I'll probably start on the screenplay itself within the next few days.
Tonight, I'm doing a radio interview, then I have another one to do on Sunday.
On Monday, wife Sandy gets home, so that will be very nice.
Now, here's a joke I was sent. I'm not sure, but I may have run this before, but it's still funny.
A Jewish couple in London won twenty-million pounds in the lottery.
They bought a magnificent mansion in Knightsbridge and surrounded
themselves with all the material wealth imaginable.
They decided to hire a butler. They found the perfect butler through an
agency, very proper and very British, and brought him back to their home.
The day after his arrival, he was instructed to set up the dining
table for four, as they were inviting the Cohens to lunch. The couple then left the house to do some shopping.
When they returned, they found the table set for six.
Perplexed, they asked the butler why it was set for six when they had
expressly asked him to set it for four.
The butler replied: "The Cohens telephoned and said they were bringing the Blintzes."
You have a creative day.
