A Very Happy Birthday to DR Vixmom!! ;D

So last night, I went out to feed the cats at my sister's and her boyfriend's houses (all cats are alive and well :D) and on the way home, I drove through the Arby's drive-through. I got all the way into my house before I realized that they didn't give me one of my items (potato bites...they were $3!). I really wasn't going to worry about it, but then I also realized that I forgot to put out the yard waste container at my sister's house...dammit. So, since I already had to go back out, I drove through the Arby's drive-through again and they gave me what they forgot the first time. Then, I drove ALL the way back to my sister's just to put out the yard waste container. I got home and just finished watching "Mad Men."
-
I'm hungry - and going to bed!
-
The last book that I just read was There's Mel, There's Woody, and There's You: My Life in the Slow Lane (http://www.kritzerland.com/melwoodu.htm). :) I thoroughly enjoyed it!
-
Morning all.
That is all.

Happy VixMom Day.
Hope it's Work Free!!!

Happy Birthday Day Vixmom
-
Hey Everybody. MAN, it's 4:00am PST, and the DP and the DG are up. The company is still asleep, although Brandon (11) opened his eyes recently. Hopefully, the east coast time will aide in their getting up this morning as we want to leave by 5:00am. When we finally get to LA, (I'm hoping by 11:00am or noon) it's Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and the surroundings with all the popular sites. Most likely it will be just a driving tour. We are going to go to Pinks for lunch, that's really all that we know for sure. Then later in the afternoon, we'll head to the Disneyland area where we'll hang out this eve, get some dinner in the Downtown Disney area, and then hit the ground running tomorrow morning. The kids have never been to a Disney park before and I just love playing tour guide for first time visitors.
And we're off!!! (almost a William Finn reference!)
-
Monday morning greetings! I have an appointment today with our family doctor, who was in communication with the cardiologist the whole time I was in the hospital. They're in the same health care network, but practice at different hospitals, so it will be interesting to get his take on my recent experience. If he says, "I told you so," I might have to smack him.

Happiest of birthdays to DR Vixmom!

Happy, happy, Vixmom!

Morning, all!

TOD: The last book I finished was "Marion Fay," a late novel by Anthony Trollope and the 56th volume of his I've read. It was a typical Trollope love story, one in which money and social status are the road blocks to happiness. He learned a lot from Jane Austen. Yet this wasn't exactly a typical novel for him or in general. There isn't entirely the happy ending you expect from an often humorous romance.
That leaves me with about four more books of his to read, but only one novel, "Castle Richmond," which is said to be one of his best. It's only by accident that I saved one of the supposed best for last. Frankly, most of his books are equally enjoyable, which is why I've been able to read through his body of work in the last six years.
But I have to finish re-reading "Anna Karenina" first.

Happy Birthday, VIXMOM!

TOD:
MURDER AT THE HOLLYWOOD HERITAGE SOCIETY
I enjoyed it...but I can't recall the name of the author.
::)
-
Good morning, all! I headed for bed around 10:30 last night and by 11:15 I was printing out the Tams-Witmark Finding Aid for the Library of Congress' T-W Collection. After that I passed out and slept quite well, with three interesting dreams: in the first was was on Amsterdam Avenue with Mrs Victor Herbert and someone - I don't think it was Victor - was playing a cello; the second was a nightmare that was getting creepy when I woke up around 3 am this morning and I rememebr little of it now; the last involved Kate Baldwin, Cheyenne Jackson, and a renovation of an old store front in Dayton, OH.
I've been invited to see the new Julia Roberts film today at 1:15, but i think I may pass, drop off the "Meadowlark" score to the copyist and deal with another copyist's questions on the orchestration for "Our Time" from Liz' On- and Off-Broadway recording. Ron Raines called me last night and he wants to come over to borrow some more CDs, so I expect he'll arrive at some time around 10 or 11. While I'm waiting for him, i need to dig out the score for "Ballet Ballads" by Jerome Moross that I was sent last month by the copyist and proofread it.
TOD: I'm reading too many books at the moment, including a horror novel, GHOST ROAD BLUES, which i was enthusiastic about when I started it but I'm losing the momentum. The last three books I read were all by Josh Kilmer-Purcell, I'M NOT MYSELF THESE DAYS, CANDY EVERYBODY WANTS, and THE BUCOLIC PLAGUE, which I really enjoyed. I also liked MARVELOUS MELBA, wonderful biography of Dame Nellie Melba, a most amazing woman and opera star.

Happy Happy Birthday, Vixmom!

TOD:
Last book I read (I finished it on Friday, in fact) was THE TEN CENT PLAGUE by David Hajdu. This book chronicles the growing hysteria surrounding the comic book industry in the late 40s to early 50s that culminated in community-sponsored bookburnings, McCarthy-style Senate hearings and, ultimately, censorship.
I was so looking forward to this book because of my love of comics, but I found it a drudge that I had to slug my way through. The author never seems to bother to try to recreate the period of time he writes about and just delivers facts and quotes from some of the writers, artists and publishers involved. He also goes into detailed tangents--I came away knowing as much about the life and career of Estes Kefauver as I did about that of E.C. comics publisher Bill Gaines. The book comes to an abrupt halt with the end of E.C. Comics and the last hundred pages are all footnotes, citations and a bibliography. I'm sorry that I ever picked this one up...
-
This morning I began reading THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO. It starts very promisingly...
-
DR TCB, I guess I left yesterday before I saw your post. Or maybe I just left the screen up.
I did go to the international day, but after I posted (at 4:45pm). Although they must have started serving the food early (which they never do). Sadly my favorite food there (Greek) was already sold out! :(
But I got to taste all the other kinds of foods.
It is sort of interesting because some of them don't really know how to serve food to lots of people. Some of them have great food (like the Filipino table). But they don't really know how to keep it warm properly.
The Greek table it usually the most organized. They pre-plate most of they food so you don't have to wait so long. And they serve things that work at an event like this.
Barbados had a huge line yesterday. And they were putting like 8-10 items on a plate. But it took so long.
The best and most organized for the event to me was Ukraine. They had perogies. But they were cooking them in a huge pot of boiling water on the spot. So it was easy to prepare and it was hot and delicious. They were giving 3 per person and since it was only one thing it was fast.
There were some interesting kinds of food (that I don't even know what they were) from Sri Lanka.
The biggest disappointment to me is Italy. They have so much to choose from. ANd every year they give a piece of store bought pizza bread (bread with sauce) and a stale bun with a cold sausage in it.
I ended up being very full.
-
Happy Birthday to DR Vixmom! Hope you have a great day.
-
TOD - In the hospital, I finished Morality for Beautiful Girls, the third installment in Alexander McCall Smith's #1 Ladies' Detective Agency series. I was supposed to write an article for the Middfest Magazine on literature of Botswana, but turned over my research materials to the editor last week and let it go. Right now, I'm concentrating on finishing Mary McCarthy's The Group to be ready for Thursday evening when my book group friends are coming over to watch the movie.
-
TOD: Last book I read.
Last night I finished a book which I loved called THE HUNGER GAMES by Suzanne Collins.
It's a trilogy. I have the 2nd book and the 3rd book comes out later this month.
It's not necessarily a book I would have gravitated towards. But I had seen a few people recommend it. ANd when i went to amazon.com it had 800/1100 5 stars. And 200 more with 4 stars (that is a pretty high rating).
And everybody there was raving about it. The story is about a teenage girl age 16 ( and it is a young adult book). But it has some violence, so it definitely isn't for anyone too young.
I just loved this book.
http://www.amazon.com/Hunger-Games-Suzanne-Collins/dp/0439023483/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1281965784&sr=8-1
-
I have a bunch more books to read including:
Last Night At Chateau Marmont by Lauren Weisberger (The Devil Wears Prada), the first 3 FBI Profiler books by Lisa Gardner.
And now I'm starting Catching Fire (book 2) by Suzanne Collins.
-
The last books I read (I read several at a time) were:
ALMOST A GENTLEMAN, an autobiography by playwright John Osborne, which I liked immensely.
AT THE ROYAL COURT, a look at the first 25 years of the English Stage Company and their work by many of the participants...playwrights, directors, actors, others...very good, with lots of great photos...
BEAUTY QUEEN OF LEENANE, a play by Martin McDonagh, not as good a play as his PILLOWMAN, but well worth the read, with the usual dark funny touches he's known for.
EXIT PURSUED BY A BADGER by Nick Asbury, which is the compiled blog of an actor during the RSC mammoth undertaking of staging all the histories of Richard II, Henry IV, parts one & two, Henry V, all three parts of Henry VI, and ending with Richard III. This I'm currently reading and so far, so good.
-
TOD:
From my previous posts, I believe that I stated I was reading the "Kritzerland" trilogy. I really enjoyed the books and I loved the humor contained within them. I am now reading "There's Mel, There's Woody, and There's You." I am currently reading about the year 1975 and "The First Nudie Musical."
-
Morning, all!
Happy B-day, Vixmom!
TOD: Born to Kvetch, by Michael Wex, which I'm now re-reading with notepad in hand. Between the corny humor, the linguistic minutia, and the whiplash transitions from scholarly to silly, I'm loving every page, but I'm still amazed that there's more than five people out there who could read this thing, let alone make it a best-seller...

Happy Birthday Vixmom!!!

Good morning, good day, how are you this beautiful day? I am up.

No need to smack my primary care physician - I think he was as stunned as I was.

Happy Birthday to our own Vixmom!!

TOD: The last book I read was "THERE'S MEL..." etc
As for what I thought of it, that's all on Amazon. :-)
-
Very light orders for Billy Barnes' L.A. - I knew they'd be light, but not quite THIS light. So, this will obviously not ever sell out and I've just cancelled plans for two other CDs involving revues (not LA revues - NY revues - classics from the 50s) - I did this one for Billy, but I'm not ever going to take a chance on something like this again -
-
I've met bk's friend Marshall Harvey several times. My good friend and former assistant editor Jim was his assistant on quite a few films and I would usually drop by their cutting rooms when I was working in LA.
-
In said book, I also enjoyed reading about a certain editor's "cursed" house, but sorry that bk inherited it.
-
Currently I'm reading Doc Pomus's bio, "Lonely Avenue" and another book which is the basis for another project I hope to work on. I'm also one of those people who has several books going at the same time, and can give them up without finishing without a pang of guilt!
-
Good morning, bk. I sent your tapes back to you a few days ago, and today I sent what I'd cut of your benefit before realizing it had already been done. I'm also sending a score to a film I cut a few years back, in case it might be something you'd consider releasing. It would definitely have an audience, although not your usual one!
-
Got the tapes and look forward to the other goodies.
-
Just completed my first basement walk - it's a smoother course than the dining room/kitchen table gauntlet.

Well, yes, DR Elmore, now that you mention it, the past couple of weeks have been somewhat Kafka-esque!
-
I could go for a cuppa Kafka right now...

TOD:
The last book that I read was also There's Mel, There's Woody, and There's You: My Life in the Slow Lane by one Bruce Kimmel. I enjoyed it greatly and am looking forward to this guys next tome.
-
Hmm...DR TCB, I seem to be having the same issue that you were having yesterday, in which after you post I am taken back to the top of the HHW page. Maybe it is an AOL browser issue.
-
I haven't had the problem - try Safari or a different browser.
-
I wonder do a lot of DRs read multiple books at the same time. I never do.

A most happy birthday to the wonderful DR Vixmom!!

I do occaisionally. A book to read during commuting and a book at bed time. But right now I'm playing catch-up with magazines and comics before bed.

But poor Aunt Kate's handwriting hasn't been the same since the potato masher incident...

The buses get worse and worse; today, after visiting the copyist, I waited at 96th and Broadway for a bus. By the tme I had walked to 82nd Street, no bus had yet come along. The only good thing about walking in the heat was running into Patricia Sinnott, Steve Sondheim's office manager when I first knew him. It's been 22 years since she left Steve for a brief employment with Sir andrew's Really Useful Company before ending up at Symphony space. I hadn't seen her in about twelve years so it was a ncie surprise. I think next week we'll get together and visit.
-
Good afternoon. That's about it.

There are a couple of promising clouds off to the east.

That's how desperate for rain we are.

Only yesterday, I finished reading DANGEROUSLY FUNNY:

Packages are addressed and postaged.
-
I had some eggs for lunch, the picked up three count them three packages and the important envelope. Paying attention to its contents (sometimes I look at what invoice is being paid, sometimes not, but lately I have been keeping track) and this invoice managed to jump ahead by three titles. So, I wrote them and they told me they didn't have those three invoices, which is pretty amazing as I not on include a hard copy in the top box of all their shipments (and clearly marked so), but I also send them via e-mail. So, after this week's check, he jumps backwards to take care of those three invoices, then he'll got back to where we were and by the time that happens, we'll be four or five more titles ahead. And so it goes.
-
After a looooong nap, I just stepped out to the corner market and the rains have begun; the air feels great, no longer oppressive and heavy, and I think ithings are cooling down. I didn't mind getting wet at all.
-
I also got a nice email from former DR MattH this morning. He sends regards to everyone.
-
Please tell MattH that he would be welcome back.
-
Well, you've read the notes, the notes felt like a motherless child, and now it is time for you to post until the motherless cows come home.
Shouldn't it be the mootherless cows?

Happiest of birthdays to Vixmom, from Sacramento!
Don't have time to ketchup right now, but JR, I thought of you today in Old Sacramento--we went to a movie memorabilia store and they had a complete shelving unit FULL of photos of Lucy, most of which I had never seen before.

I loved that book. I also listened to it on audio, so I could hear the correct pronunciation of the words.

Yes. I have three or four that I'm reading right now. All depends on mood and time frame.

Tell Patricia hello for me. She's an old friend of a friend and I've met her on a number of occasions. Even cooked for her a few times. Wonderful woman.
-
Odd day at the office. It started with the head honcho coming in and asking how much work we accomplished over the weekend. When I informed him that we didn't work over the weekend, he almost lost it. I wasn't the one who gave the staff the weekend off, but he was informed that no one was working. I'm just glad the rest of the staff was there to hear it and scratch their heads along with me.
-
I was just on youtube watching the blackface performer Tess Gardella (Aunt Jemima) performing her two big numbers from the 1929 SHOWBOAT performances. There's some mighty strange hoofing going on from about six young black ladies during "Hey Fella!" I think Gardella sings about one out of every ten notes Kern actually wrote. There are also some lyric changes from the published score and the dance music to the Ballyhoo has singing over it that's not indicated in the 1927 vocal score.
-
WHAT A DAY!!! Oh my, we had so many people coming in, phone calls, all sorts of stuff...I haven't been this busy in ages and since we're both on our first day back from vacation it was a bit chaotic. It was nice though and nothing really bothered me too much, just a bit more than I was ready for.
-
I agree with DR Cillaliz - WHAT A DAY!!! We are finally safely ensconced in the Candy Cane Inn in Anaheim. It's been a day. We walked around Hollywood Blvd, went to Madame Tussaud's place, which was fun. We went to Pinks for lunch, which was fun. The youngest is having a hard time being away from home and will break down at the drop of a hat. Hopefully being at Disneyland will help keep him focused. Here's hoping....
And DR Laura, after my hideously disgusting (in a good way) hot dog from Pinks, I'm still feeling fine. Thanks always for caring!
-
I rarely read two books at a time, and then there is a reason I need to put the one book down to read another. Just yesterday I put down NO MAN DIES ALONE to continue reading at a later date. I know it will not be my book discussion book, it is long, and I own the book. I will read the library books first beginning with RIVER OF DOUBT.
-
Happy Birthday, DR Vixmom!
-
Yes, of course MattH would be welcome back - all of our past folks would be welcome back, sans any troublemakers.
-
Had a very nice meeting with Sam Bobrick and Ron Clark, and now I must jog, even though I don't really want to. Then I shall watch the brand new Blu and Ray of Psycho - it came out in the UK (but all region) two months earlier than here.
-
I am so sorry DR edisaurus isn't with THE CLOSER any more. I miss asking her about things. I am enjoying tonight's episode very much.
-
It's been a good season on THE CLOSER. I, too, wish DR Edi was still with the show
-
I had a big outing this afternoon - my first trip to the grocery store. Richard drove, of course, and did all the bending and heavy lifting. We didn't do a big shopping, but covered quite a bit of territory. I came home and took a nap.
-
I'm glad that hideously disgusting hotdog didn't do a number on you, Matthew!
-
I am so sorry DR edisaurus isn't with THE CLOSER any more. I miss asking her about things. I am enjoying tonight's episode very much.
Me too. Of course I'm sure DR Edi misses it the most.

Thank you.

I need a new cell phone. Had I just gone ahead and gotten a free one for renewing a two year contract I would only have a year left.
Last night while at the theater my phone suddenly decided to turn itself on. You can imagine how embarrassed I was. It it a slider phone and how it turned on with the lid down I have no idea. ???

A little earlier today, I was perusing a website (I'm at work, so it's nothing inappropriate ;)) and a pop-up ad popped up. I was just going to close it, but the picture looked familiar...it's the avatar of (new) DR Lowell! Here's his picture:

Much of what MR BK wrote in the notes about being single is very familiar territory to me.
I just don't think I have the time and or energy to devote to a relationship anymore - I am reconciled to being single for the rest of my life - whatever time may be left to me.
And that's okay.

Friday morning Vixdad presented me with a GPS - he bought me a TomTom.. we experimented with several of teh voices and discovered that only one of the women's voices seemed to 'know" the street names
so that is the one we went with
-
Just wanted to let you know that I might not be online so much tomorrow. My right wrist, the location of one of my 3 "entry sites" is bothering me a little and I'm thinking it's due to too much keyboarding.
'night!
-
Watching a movie on blu and ray. I'm taking a break because I kept dozing off and having to back up the movie. And tomorrow no sleeping in - I do a radio interview or some kind of interview (maybe a newspaper) at nine.
-
we took off Friday for "The Sweetest Place On Earth" - Hershey , PA
the GPS directed us through lower Manhattan to take the Holland tunnel ... this might have been a very good idea at say 3 AM
4 PM on Friday - not so much
it took us 45 minutes to go one block ... we also discovered that NYC, in its wisdom, has decided that between the hours of 4 PM - 7 PM all routes leading to the Holland tunnel are closed to traffic - the trip was supposed to take 3 1/2 hour s- it ended up taking 5 1/2 because it took 2 hours to get across Manhattan....
then the GPS power connection cord, which plugs into the cigarette lighter, (brand new out of the box 4 hours earlier) stopped working
this was a problem since wewere counting on the GPS and I left my google maps printout at home
-
fortunately the Vixter had brought along her laptop to view dvds on for the trip and we were able to use it as a power source for the GPS
-
The last time I had been to Hershey Park had been my 21st birthday ....which was more than 5 years ago
(how much more I am not saying but the ferris wheels were horse powered at the time)
we had a really good time...
-
even though it rained on Sunday ....
-
this morning we went to A Radio Shack and replaced the GPS powercord and then we drove over to Amish country and ate at Amish smorgasboard for lunch
Soooooooooooooooooo good!! and my meal was free because it was my birthday!!
-
well tomorrow will be a busy day I am sure so I had better get me to bed
thank you allfor the birthday wishes!!

That sounds great, even if it weren't free. I remember the Menonite restaurants in Sarasota, which are somewhat similar, and the home cooking was always warming.
Sounds like a great way to spend part of your birthday.
-
And with that, I'm off to bed. Night, all.
-
Was there cake, Vixmom? And ice cream?
-
Happy Birthday dear Vixmom ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
Night all. 8)
-
I'm finishing up the movie and then I think I'm going out for a late-night bite, as I haven't eaten anything since one. I sort of have a craving for an egg salad sandwich.
-
I just don't think I have the time and or energy to devote to a relationship anymore - I am reconciled to being single for the rest of my life
And that's okay.
That is exactly how I feel, DR JRand, and I am ok with that.
At least until George Clooney decides to date me.
-
Now to finish the last couple of episodes from this ADAM 12 season 5 set. I am quite disappointed that Dorothy Neumann has not show up in any of them so far. It seemed to me that she was in several episodes throughout the series' run.
-
Happy Birthday Vixmom!

Well, I just voted. Tomorrow (Tuesday) will be the Washington state primaries (http://www.thurstonvotes.org/). I don't know if it's just Thurston County or statewide, but it's write-in votes only. No more
wire coat hangers in-person voting, ever! ;)
