I just got the good news: I got accepted into grad school. Yeah!

Good news, too!  Congrats, John!!

[Jrand74]

Wow - such great news from DR ELMORE and DR JOHNG

Rent vibes for DR JMK.

I have started reading a new book today which is turning out to be most wonderful......I shall recommend it by title when I finish it later today.

[John G.]

I just got the good news: I got accepted into grad school. Yeah!

What school? What program?

Are you getting an assistantship?

I'm going to SUNY-Empire State, which is an online program to get a master's in liberal studies with a dual focus on education and communications. I hope to teach with the degree.

Now that I have been accepted, I can start looking to see if there's any aid out there.

[John G.]

Thank you, JRand, George, Elmore and JMK. It's one less thing to worry about -- and a whole new world of things to worry about (but in a good way).

[George]

Topic of the Day (in alphabetical order...of what I can remember...I know I'm forgetting some things):

Everything from Kritzerland , but especially:
Promises, Promises (the original Broadway cast recording)
Promises, Promises (the original London cast recording)
Sugar

As well as:
The Barra MacNeils' Christmas Album II
La Cage aux Folles (the new Broadway cast recording)
Finian's Rainbow (the new Broadway cast recording)
Kristina: The Musical (Live At Carnegie Hall)
Pink Martini's Splendor in the Grass
The Scottsboro Boys (the original Broadway cast recording)
Sondheim On Sondheim (the original Broadway cast recording)

[John G.]

I forgot "Finian's" from my list. That's a great new one from this year.

[George]

And now, I must be off.  I'm picking up my friend Margo from the airport, and then we must hurry back to Olympia to work the aforementioned Sing-Along Messiah tonight.

I hope the traffic cooperates!

Until later!

[MBarnum]

Resume vibes for DR FJL.

DR MBARNUM just sent me the 1964 Japanese Recording of Annie Get Your Gun, which I am sure will be a NEW favorite of mine.

And you will note that the lead actor/singer is Akira Takarada, best known as the leading man in GODZILLA KING OF THE MONSTERS, GODZILLA VS. THE THING, MONSTER ZERO, and numerous other Toho Studio sci-fi and samurai flicks! He has an excellent singing voice, I might add!

Richard and I are back to being a one-car couple for a week, so we've just returned from a couple of hours of errands.  Except for a stop at Kenwood Towne Center on our way to a dinner in Cincinnati tomorrow and a stop at Barnes & Noble on the way home, we're now finished with Christmas shopping.  We also went to the grocery for what I hope will be the last big shopping before the holiday weekend.  With that coming up and with two rounds of bad weather predicted for this week, it was pretty crazy there already.

It's great to find good news from DRs Elmore (checks) and John G (grad school) upon my return!

[TCB]

And the word of the day is: KATZENJAMMER!

And The Song Of The Day Is:  DRINKING AGAIN

I expected the song to be KIDS.

Safe and easy travel vibes for my DS Craig as he makes his way to Olympia!

[Jrand74]

I hadn't noticed that DR MBARNUM.....but now that you mention it - the face is familiar.

[TCB]

Congratulations, John G.!

[Jrand74]

It is beginning to snow here.

[Jane]

DR JANE's little tree is very nice as well.

Thank you.

[Jane]

Safe and easy travel vibes for my DS Craig as he makes his way to Olympia!

~~~Ditto!!~~~

Thank you.  How is the weather there?

[Jane]

Thanks Jrand.  I expect Craig is about half way there now.

[Jane]

Safe and easy travel vibes for my DS Craig as he makes his way to Olympia!

Jane, if DS Craig isn't busy tonight, tell him to come to the Washington Center for the Performing Arts and attend (or even participate in) the Sing-Along Messiah.  It's free!  I'm working concessions (which are not free, though) so I will be there.

Join us in a community sing-a-long!  Come to sing, come to listen as we delight in Handel's Messiah, a local tradition!  Brought to you by Student Orchestras of Greater Olympia and The Washington Center for the Performing Arts.

If he's not busy tonight.

I shall email this to him.  I suspect once he arrives, checks into a hotel and eats dinner he will crash for the night.

[Jane]

Woo hoo! Today is the day the checks rolled in!

[Jane]

Just got a hearty, much needed laugh.  I get reports about what search queries are used to find my FF article, and someone got there by asking, "WTF was wrong with Frances Farmer". 

FINGERS CROSSED YOU RENT THE HOUSE TODAY!!!!

[Jane]

I am not amused.

Unless it's an emergency, my doctor is on vacation this week and has no free time next week. Nor is there any free time for any physician covering her vacation week. And my insurance is going up $100/month in January.

Did you ask to be put on a waiting list?  I also suggest calling every day to see if there is an opening.

[Jane]

I am going to be sore.

I decided to go to the pool and do 1 hour aqua fitness and 30minutes of laps.

Good for you.  I should do the same.

[Jane]

I just got the good news: I got accepted into grad school. Yeah!

Congratulations!!!  Vibes you find some financial aid!!

Thank you and Thank you.  He has a good resume & is well prepared for the interview, including having read a 100 page report they sent him.

I have to make a trip to the LoC in the first weeks of January. It should be interesting as long as I don't run into the lady who made LIFE BEGINS AT 8:40 such hell.

[Laura]

Congrats to JohnG for grad school!

[Laura]

Do you have any drug stores that have nurse practitioners in them, Elmore? Or urgent care?

[TCB]

Is that very likely?
