Jelly Cat is a brand. My son has a monkey which he was given when he was born. He was so devoted to it when he was small that when he lost it, we bought him another one to replace it. But they had stopped making the same size so we got him a slightly bigger one. When we gave it to him he said ‘monkey has grown!’ Then we found the smaller one so he now has monkey and monkey Pa. He still has them in his room. He is 20 at the end of November. You met him when I was about 8 month pregnant at a concert you gave at the Corn Exchange.
I love that you would dress up as a hobo! My son would have loved to have dressed up like that.
At one point when we had sold our house but hadn't been able to move into our newer house, our son reveled in the fact we were hobos, rich hobos, but nevertheless hobos! Until we moved into our new house then we were poor but had a home!
Thank you for sending that little video, I think Roy is great, spontaneously found companions are the best :-) Wow, it must have been so loud, we could hear the noise in your office room video as well quite loudly.
I never really experienced Halloween as a child as it wasn't a thing in Germany in the 80s and 90s. We have a religious holiday called Allerheiligen (all saints) in some parts of the country on 1st November and then there's another remembrance day called Allerseelen (all souls) the day after that.
I find this time of year so interesting with all the different traditions from different cultures and countries!
Patti- You and Roy put a smile on my face this morning! I missed you on Halloween, but seeing you took me out of my feeling of dread. You’ll probably hate this, but I have seen you as an icon, a woman finding herself as I was doing the same. I admired and still do admire your genuine-ness ( if that’s a word ).I am so grateful to you. I can’t quite express in words, but you helped me navigate the sometimes lonely life of an artist.
Thank you. It was so fun to see you again. Best Wishes to you and Roy. Be Well. Clare
Hi Roy. You really made me smile Patti. Such a simple message through the orphan Roy. Thanks for sharing your story tonight it reminded me of halloween when i was young roo.
Patti, I watched this now, a few days after your posting, but I just wanted to say thank you (to you and Roy, of course). Seeing this, seeing you so full of love, so happy, so light, it made me realize that I’ve gotten so caught up in politics and the state of the world that I’ve been losing some of this lightness. It made me decide to pick up Just Kids and M Train again to read and be closer to the energy of this video – to your love. Thank you! And I’ll be seeing you here in Brazil in January yaaayyy!!!!!
Happy Halloween on All Saints Day. I just got back from seeing Ragtime at city center in NYC
I pictured you, for Halloween, as the often-overlooked X-ray crystallographer Rosalind Franklin who was instrumental in the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA while working at King’s College. She never received credit for her work, not even from Watson and Crick!

This is so sweet!
I watched this on November 7. What a lovely 7+ minutes with Roy, Patti and her microscope. I am smiling.
Jellycat is a super cute/soft stuffed toy brand!
🖤
Dear Patti, Wow! It was loud. Fun parade. I love Roy. I bet he's so happy he's in your home.
this is wonderful. I can hear it!
Hey, Roy Batty!

I love that microscope! It's beautiful.
Patti, you are the best!

Patti, I have a title of a new song you could write- “not quite for the whole world,” but almost…. People Tunes. What do you think?
