I'm up after eight hours of sleep and awaiting the local CD dealer.

Good afternoon, all.

From DR Jennifer:

It is weird to me when people mention garbage disposals since we don't have them here. Or at least I do not know anybody who has ever had one.

That is interesting. With the drought I'm barely using ours as you need the water on when you use them.

Also, the site is quite balky and slow at the moment.

Yes everybody remain clam.

I am off shortly to sell tickets for STEEL MAGNOLIAS and then clean up afterwards.

Good morning, all! It was a particularly bizarre night: I had wanted to be in bed by 10:00, and since the meds seemed to be taking their time, i decided to take them earlier. So, around 7:00 I took the pain medication from my back/sports injury specialist, which is pretty negligible. Around 8:00, I took one of the muscle relaxers. By 8:30 I was semi-conscious, so I went to bed. At 10:00, I woke up, decided to take a Tylenol for arthritis, and passed out some time after 10:45. At 3:00am, i was wide awake, with a song from Jerome Kern's Oh, Lady! Lady!. I tried to get back to sleep abd around 4:45 figured the hell with it.

So, i've been up since 4:45, I'll go to physical therapy, and probably spend the remainder of the day mentally and physically fatigued and not worth a damn to anyone.

I hate this crap!

I just got my Miami University alumni magazine, and I was saddened to learn of the death of Robert Kane, who taught me four years of Latin and a year and a half of Greek; he was, I'd guess, the best instructor I ever had. When we weren't talking about Latin, we were raving about musical theatre. He was from Manhattan, and he'd been going to theatre since he was a child. Whenever I got bored discussing Virgil, I'd ask him about the 1956 production of CANDIDE, which he'd seen over a Christmas holiday from Holy Cross. He was a genius, a wonderful teacher, and the world's a less intelligent place today.

He was young. He died on January 2, eight days before his 76th birthday.

Ah, yes. Under the Skin . Yes indeed. I'll have my copy tomorrow and will make time to properly watch it within the following couple of days.

BUT ... what I have to do first, which I've been promising myself for the past several months, is reread the original novel by Michel Faber in order to positively reinforce my own mental images of that for all time. They are too precious to let go. I know the film is going to be its own thing, and that's all well and good, but this book is just special.

I requested my eBook library get the book. If it comes in it might be after we watch the movie. I'm very interested in your opinion of the film.

I got a call from the alarm company at 8:16 a.m. that told me the alarm had been tripped - I told them to ignore it.

That landlord didn't waste any time getting in there to see what he had.....which is not much. We've been working since Sunday to remove most of the stuff. What's left - he can clean up.

You moved out quickly. Were you supposed to be out by today? If not you should have let the alarm company send the police out

Wednesday morning greetings! Our new bedroom curtains block a lot more light than the old ones and I managed to sleep until about 8:30 this morning.

We could use those curtains. At 5:20 this morning I thought is was time to get up.

Are you pleased with the look of your new curtains?

Has anybody listened to the recording if Heathers? I had loved the movie and find this to be fun. High schools won't be staging this one. They've kept the black humor intact.
