Anybody hear about the woman (girl, really) whose toddler disappeared, who just commited suicide?  Doesn't bode well for the child, does it.  I have a soft spot for those little ones...makes me so sad.

I go away for my adventure, and come back and we're still on the same PAGE?  I think Ye Olde Bitch-Slap Machine is coming out and coming out in FORCE, baby.

I had quite a fun time, but I'll write about it in tomorrow's notes - for now, I think I'll try to write a little bit.

The NYMF should call itself "pissing in the wind" productions:  we had an 11 AM band call for set for an 11:30 sound check.  Around 1:00 PM the asshole sound man showed up, there was little to deal with in balancing the band and too much time was spent on electronic drums (WHY???).  By 3 PM he was gone the soundboard is now run by a young lady who has to deal with 8 bodymikes and a hostile orchestrator.  At 6:00 they were still teching the show.  We have yet to do a full runthrough with the band, the sound is screwed, and we open tonight.  Color me pissed.

And scared.  On the positive side, the producers of our show are great, and the tech staff supplied by NYMF are friendly and cooperative.  Back to the show!

Thursday evening greetings!  My drive to Columbus yesterday was a snap and I was there in time to hear my boss and a coworker give most of their presentation in the session before mine.  My co-presenter and I had only 16 people, due largely to competing topics that were more glitzy.  Went out to a nice dinner at Don Pablo's with my 2 bosses and a couple of others.  I crashed early and slept better than expected in the most uncomfortable bed ever.

This morning, when I arrived at the breakfast table, my manager Travis said, "Ginny, we have news."  Last month, I'd helped him craft a proposal and he'd received word late last night that Dayton Metro Library is one of 12 systems awarded grants for health and wellness programming for urban teens and their families  ;D

I attended sessions this morning on memoirs and audio books, had a nice lunch, didn't win one of the 2 MP3 players given as door prizes (but a friend did, so it's OK), had a latte happy hour at Stauf's with 3 other Dayton librarians, and drove home amid many, many semi trucks.

I read she did it not long after Nancy Grace went after her on her show.

That's absolutely correct.  Ms. Grace bulldozed her on national TV, demanded to know how she could have LET this thing happen to her OWN child.

She was, allegedly, deeply in grief over her child's abduction that Grace's nastiness sent her into a tailspin of despaire.

Nancy Grace is a disgrace, not only to the once-dignified profession of news commentary, but to the female gender!

Last night, I was so tired that I just surfed the TV in my hotel room.  Caught a little bit of the replay of that.  Nancy Grace(less) was brutal.

Had to go do a couple of errands, and did manage to write a few lines - I'll probably do more tonight.  For now, I must sit on my couch like so much fish.

TOD - In 1964, US Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart said, about obscenity, he couldn't define it, but "I know it when I see it."  That's how I feel about love.

Love?  Sure, I know what love is.  It is what happens to the other guy.  But that's okay.  Every day, in my prayers, I thank God for my friends, for my family, and for my friends that have become my family.  And that is what true love is for me.  Those friends, both here and around the world, that have come to mean so much to me that they have become my real family.  Those are the ones that have my love, today and always.  

And then there are my two beautiful four-legged babies, who I love with all my heart, and who give to me each day unconditonal love.

Hmmm...I didn't look that closely at the top loader at Costco.  Maybe it is a water saver, too. :)

It is a shame the English language has too few ways to express love.  There are so many people I love on all different levels who are special to me and sometimes those levels sadly or happily fluctuate.  

And then there is my best friend, that guy I’m married to who still makes my heart skip a beat when he walks into the room…..  I certainly wasn’t looking for love at seventeen, but once it found me I knew I was making a commitment for life.

Let me tell you what love isn't:  Love isn't this dearth of posting that's gone on for the last few days.  Love isn't being overrun by the errant and truant.  Love isn't achieveing a new all-time low.

DR Laura, I feel your pain. I just had the worst most biased phone call in the guise of a survey. When I said that to the caller he said "Yeah, I know, I'm so sorry" I told him to forget it, I don't want to participate in something like this.

Time to screen my calls from here on out
