The girls gave me some lovely going away cards,a $50 gift card to Kohls, a willow wood friendship angel, and a Kate Spade handbag!

I gather you had a nice work Christmas/going away party.

How's the German, John G? I imagine you and your sister converse mainly in English.

She knows very little English, so the communication is mostly in German. My listening is better than my speaking. I must sound awful because I never learned the 500 verbs that are irregular in the past tense. But I can’t let that bother me.

I am sure she is just happy to have you there.

And I am back — from the office par-tay, and not too much the worse for wear.

Well, maybe a couple of Manhattans the worse for wear. But that’s not too much. Right?

her tap dancing was always kind of flat-footed, but I guess that was the style then....or maybe it was the shoes she wore....

It's always one or the other. But shoes matter.

Be back later.

Have we discussed this odd thing about Dolly Parton's husband fantasizing about him and Dolly, er,  getting together with Jennifer Aniston? 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDUX9oonX0s
Did Dolly actually say "He can't get it  to pee, let alone for three" - and Jennifer just looks on.  Dolly and Jennifer are pushing a movie they worked on together; is this a possible publicity gimmick?

We played. Left, right, center with three dollars each... I won the first two pots.  Then Vixdad won the third.  Vixdad insisted on leaving his winnings in the center for the 4th round , and we both stayed at the table but didn't play .  The host won the 4th round  (whew!)

I had to stop watching Doctor Who because my friend Margo called and she's a talker...and we haven't chatted in a couple of weeks.  That's a long time for us.
