MR. UPPITY

Well, you've read the notes, the notes were only a little uppity, and now it is time for you to post until the uppity cows come home, although the uppity cows don't hold a candle to Mr. Uppity.

Good morning, all! I have two doctors' appointments this morning with a dermatologist and my ophthalmalogist, both at the HIP facility on 22nd Street and 5th Avenue. I hope it goes smoothly. I slept well until 4am, when the new tenant arrived home, created much noise for a couple of hours and disturbed my sleep pattern.

BK, perhaps this Mr Uppity dislikes you as much as you dislike him and snubs you because he prefers not to deal with you? That's why the lady is a tramp.

When I read Sam's  posts from last night I suddenly had Marlene Dietrich's voice in my head singing


Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am I to do?
Can't help it

Love's always been my game
Play it as I may
I was born that way
Can't help it

Men flock around me
Like moths around a flame
And if their wings burn
I know I'm not to blame

Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am I to do?
Can't help it

It looks as if my friend Chase Brock, Rob Berman's partner, may be the new SPIDERMAN choreographer. Chase has been a huge defendent of the show from Day One.

They're predicting snow tomorrow, which seems to be shocking folk. I remember in 1984 or 1985 a huge blizzard early in April. I had a meeting scheduled at the Liederkranz Club on 5th Avenue and it took forever to get there, between the slow traffic and the walk through gigantic drifts of snow. When I got to the Club, I found it closed and the meeting cancelled. I was not amused.

So...

After a CAT scan(!), the docs at the ER determined that my friend was dealing with an acute asthma attack that had been lasting more than 24 hours. So, the put him on a nebulizer for a bit, and he left the ER around 6:30 this morning.

I read his email at 7:30 this morning.

And now at around 8:30, I shall start making my way over to Carroll Studios for an orchestra rehearsal.

And around 10:00 I shall be sight-reading some apparently pretty thorny orchestral piano part to a piece of music that was written within the last two years.

Fun? Fun!  ::)

DR elmore - Yep, Snow!

*And there's even snow in the forecast for Saturday while I'm in Chicago. -I just hope tomorrow's snow does not mess up my travel plans. I'll be training it again to the midwest.

Tuesday morning greetings!  Another sign of spring - our lawn guys are here for their first visit of the season.  Wonder if we're in for any of the snow you all have been discussing...

Photocopying the slips will not prove that you turned in the slips, only that you filled them out.

That's why I'm going to have the librarian sign my paper when I hand them in!

Because it is a pain to do so & a waste of paper.  Do you have to pay to copy them?  What if you fill out two slips for the same book & have them initial the second one as a duplicate.  How many do you put in at once?

No my printer has a photocopier. I will put all of them on one paper. Right now I have 7. I will always do it this way.

Even though it's a waste of paper at least it will prove that i'm not lying.

RE: the whole library thing from yesterday.

It's sort of amazing with a paper system that they don't lose most of the slips. I guess they think they have a system where they go from the front desk to the reference librarian. But it's stupid. THe rest of the system is not computerized. I even spoke to the guy in charge in September and he said they were going to get the requests computerized. But that was 6 months ago.
