Well, you've read the notes, the notes were all to myself, and now it is time for you to post until the all to myself cows come home.

Know who just ordered The Red Shoes?  Thelma Schoonmaker-Powell - she's Martin Scorsese's long-time editor and widow of the director of The Red Shoes.  Fun!

When I home last night, I ate my dinner (leftover Subway from lunch) then burned DVDs for Tom and Vixmom on my old computer that can no longer connect to the Internet.

I'll have to look through my Kindles to remind myself what I've read this year, but I can definitely say that "Thrill Ride" will be on my list of favorites.

T.O.D.

Aside from when I'm researching a new writing project, I read and enjoy a lot of the Harry Bosch books by Michael Connelly.    Can't recall the titles.

Right now, I'm researching; watching films of an actress (who I knew) who will be the subject of my next one-person play.

Will probably start writing right after the first of the year.

Annabelle is sick again.  I don't think the Clamavox cleared up the respiratory infection and it has flared back up.  She;s still eating, thank God, but her voice is hoarse and her breathing ragged.

I had two reasons why I never adopted a pet in the past: being away from NYC on work and not having the money to pay for their care.  I should have stuck to that: I'm in cash flow hell, I have no money until Dec. 20, and I cannot afford to see the vet at the moment.  I am worried.

I've been awake since 2:30 this morning.  And I have two sick cats.

DR Elmore, I am so sorry to hear that.

And I still can’t help but see this as a parallel to my two girls going through that stuff when the new kitten came into the household.  They each had at least one relapse before all of their little systems had adapted to each other.

It can't happen soon enough.  I feel I'm at the final straw, although I know I'm not.

I can barely remember many of the books that didn’t make any of those lists.
