Four!

Well, THAT was in the nick of time, DR John G.!

singdaw · « **Reply #92 on:** January 15, 2021, 03:45:18 PM »

I found it!

It is John Jacobson, whose special signature move is "double dream hands."

I feel edified!

I love the word "cerulean."

I have never really thought of it prior to the book.

A boss of mine used to use it a lot.

Hmmm, interesting.

You can probably skip to the last two chapters.

Well, I did walk. We'll see if I sneeze all night.

singdaw · « **Reply #98 on:** January 15, 2021, 04:47:04 PM »

I certainly hope not, DR John G.

Started listening to Something More, which I've been meaning to do for a while. I forgot Sammy Fein wrote the score with the Bergmans. Nice job. He was a client of yours, DR Druxy, right?

Gratuitous post No. 100!

Hello, everyone.

Jeanne · « **Reply #102 on:** January 15, 2021, 05:26:44 PM »

Congrats to DRs Ginny and Jrand on their new niece and nephew.

Jeanne · « **Reply #103 on:** January 15, 2021, 05:27:57 PM »

I went to the bank today, followed by Trader Joe's. Trader Joe's was surprisingly quiet today. I'm not sure what that means.

Jeanne · « **Reply #104 on:** January 15, 2021, 05:28:57 PM »

Then I stopped for tacos. Tacos have become my default. If nothing much appeals I choose tacos.

Jeanne · « **Reply #105 on:** January 15, 2021, 05:29:57 PM »

I will be very glad when we can go out to eat again. I just hope there will still be a few restaurants left.

Jeanne · « **Reply #106 on:** January 15, 2021, 05:31:35 PM »

TOD:

Maybe I'll try the new ALL CREATURES GREAT AND SMALL. Or resume A BEAUTIFUL BOY.

Jeanne · « **Reply #107 on:** January 15, 2021, 05:32:26 PM »

Good weekend vibes to all.

TTFN.

That's funny. Often I skip to the last two chapters. Are you including the epilogue?

Do you plan on getting a covid vaccination?

John G. · « **Reply #111 on:** January 15, 2021, 06:31:42 PM »

Yes, two chapters and epilogue.

Watching Baryshnikov and Liza Minnelli on Broadway. Never saw it before:

Liza singing His Is the Only Music That Makes Me Dance is wonderful.

John G. · « **Reply #113 on:** January 15, 2021, 06:59:45 PM »

The ending was great, but strange. Baryshnikov joins the cast of A Chorus Line to dance One. It's a showstopper in which the chorus is the star, right? Baryshnikov does dance like anyone else on the line. But the camera keeps singling him out for closeups, though he's doing his best not to stand out.

J.B. had the best time dancing along with Too Darn Hot and One.

I've done about eight pages, I guess - hard to tell because I wrote a few things then decided to move them a bit later in the chapter. But I'll mush on and do another seven or eight, as I'm nearing the end of a chapter.

John G. · « **Reply #116 on:** January 15, 2021, 09:44:43 PM »

I’m off to bed.

John G. · « **Reply #117 on:** January 15, 2021, 09:45:04 PM »

But not before we turn the page.

Finished a sad novel tonight called Radish. Chinese. Very different. I liked it, but I have had enough sad.

John G. · « **Reply #119 on:** January 15, 2021, 09:46:29 PM »

Onward.
