I miss her and hope she is well.
She is one of my favorite peeps for sure. I will pray that all is well with her. @Magenta has been a good friend for me and my wife through the years. Occasionally, she may take a bit of a hiatus. Pray that this is the case.

I thought you were talking about Magenta on Blues Clues. I was going to suggest watching with your grandkids.

Thank you, Billy, and sorry for not responding to your comment on my profile
earlier today, which is when I returned after two weeks and two days away :)
I am well (just awoke from a nap! :giggle:) though I was in emergency last Sunday
after experiencing a short-lived attack of costochondritis, which is a connective
tissue issue related to the ribs. It felt like I was being stabbed in the heart
with every inhalation :eek: Co-incidentally (or not ;)) I had a chiropractor
appointment the following day, and he suggested that it could have been
connected to my original back injury from over forty years ago when a rib
was twisted out of my spine. Anywho, thank you so much for thinking of me.
Your prayers for my health and well being are always appreciated :D

Is there a "Magenta" in that show? I only know of the one in Rocky Horror Picture Show :unsure::giggle:

There is. Magenta is Blue's friend. I hope you know how my street cred has suffered in answering that question but this seems like a safe space. Truth be told, I miss Slippery.

Oh, and were you a regular at Rocky Horror Picture Show viewings?
No, I was not "one of them" :giggle: I did see the movie many years ago and tried revisiting it once but it is so dated! LOL

It developed quite a cult following. I experienced it once in college.

Yes, a friend of mine told me all about the costumes and carrying-ons such as
tossing toast and credit cards at the screen during the regular midnight showings :unsure:


PS~ a friend of mine started calling me Magenta back in the last millennium, and it stuck :D

Same here. There was a lot to keep up with. I particularly remember everyone holding up a lighter.

Thank you :D I can tell you how if you really wanna know :unsure:

You see, it was like this:

One Sunday around two in the afternoon as the car I was a passenger in was exiting a bridge and manoeuvring the somewhat immediate road curve, I noticed a pedestrian in the cross walk ahead, which the driver did not seem to have seen. I leaned forward in my seat and turned a bit toward him to ask him if he was really going to run down that little old lady when he suddenly slammed on the brakes. I felt a hot pinch in my back between my shoulder blades as my body just ever so slightly torqued. Throughout the rest of the day my back got progressively sorer and feeling a bit stiffer. The next morning when I awoke, I could not move, not even to roll over in bed. Good thing I was not alone! We phoned a hospital and they suggested chiropractic care, which was a bit surprising, because back in those days such treatments were still somewhat looked upon as quackery. I did not hesitate to go :) Now it sounds like a terrible thing to have happened and it did cause me quite a bit of pain and loss of many work days over the years, and every subsequent injury seems to stir it up, but all things considered, since I am still quite mobile, I consider myself fortunate :)

Thank you for sharing that. Yes, it is a blessing that you are mobile. And active ☺️
