Well, you've read the notes, the notes sang Who Killed Teddy Bear, and now it is time for you to post until the singing cows come home.

Good morning, all! Another night of weird Drama Book Shop dreams: frustrations over finding a book for a customer, looking for catalogues, and the general daily routine of the first 16 years of my life in Manhattan. The dream was in color: I remember a vivid blue sweatshirt in an section where clothing was disorganized. I've been having a lot of dreams about the Book Shop; I wonder if my subconscious has some unresolved issues there.

First thing this morning: new battery in the answering machine, I should have one, but if not, I need to run out and purchase one. Following that, today's work is the German lieder texts need editing and correcting, and that's the morning. The afternoon must be spent on the liner notes since I have a phone conference after 5pm.

DR ELMORE the Dream-O-Matic 6000 says that your dream indicates you are realizing that while you sometimes idealize the past, that it has brought you to your life today - you are sorry/grateful - and have also accepted the fact that your life today is better, although you sometimes yearn for the simplicities of the past.

You didn't miss it. I hadn't reported.

I really enjoyed the movie. I found it charming and extremely well done. The filmmakers have a respect and appreciation for silent films. It could have been a tiny bit shorter but overall it's an excellent piece worth seeing if it comes to your area.

TOD - I have decided to embrace the life of a retired person - concentrate less on re-careering and more on "leisure time" pursuits.  My slogan is Fit, Lit, and Knit - get back in the exercise routine, read more books, and get serious about knitting (and other needlecrafts that I love).  Next Tuesday, I'm starting a beginner knitting class nearby, not because I'm a total beginner, but because I learned some bad technique years ago.

Cilla, Betsy literally screamed yesterday, as only a former news anchor can, when Megyn Kelly teased a segment about the latest poll by saying, "So is it all wrapped up?"  Betsy screamed:  "Wrapped up?  It hasn't even begun yet!"  Your long national nightmare may about to be over, but ours has just begun!  :)

I've decided that during this writing period I simply don't have time to do the four-mile jog, so I'm doing a two-mile jog, which I can find time for.  That is what I did after finessing the twenty pages I wrote yesterday, including four pages of new additions.  Then I went to grab a bacon cheeseburger.  Whilst eating I received an e-mail from one of our singers saying she got a callback in NY and was dropping out of our show - she provided the names of some gals who could replace her.  It wasn't even a discussion - she just dropped out, the day of her first rehearsal.  Needless to say, I will not be working with her again.  I wish her well on her call back.  My guess is had her agent actually asked the people in NY if she could come in next Monday they would have said yes.  That's happened several times with our folks and the producers, since they're calling back someone they obviously are interested in, have been fine with waiting the couple of days.

So, I had to deal with all that, plus pick up packages and an important envelope, plus do banking.  So, I've written about nine pages so far, will stop now, have our rehearsals, and really try to write at least six more this evening, directly after rehearsal.  But given the number of pages I've already written, I'm certainly not going to feel back having written nine today, if that's all I were to do.

I've decided that during this writing period I simply don't have time to do the four-mile jog, so I'm doing a two-mile jog, which I can find time for.  That is what I did after finessing the twenty pages I wrote yesterday, including four pages of new additions.  Then I went to grab a bacon cheeseburger.  Whilst eating I received an e-mail from one of our singers saying she got a callback in NY and was dropping out of our show - she provided the names of some gals who could replace her.  It wasn't even a discussion - she just dropped out, the day of her first rehearsal.  Needless to say, I will not be working with her again.  I wish her well on her call back.  My guess is had her agent actually asked the people in NY if she could come in next Monday they would have said yes.  That's happened several times with our folks and the producers, since they're calling back someone they obviously are interested in, have been fine with waiting the couple of days.
Whatever happened to class ...

IT'S TODAY!!!! The end is near.... the media and the politicians will have one last hurrah and then will leave us alone......  I'm trying to decide if they are trying to brainwash us, harass us into submission or just bully us into voting for them.  I am keeping my initial promise, I am voting for the person who bothered me the least and stayed positive.... 

Cilla, Betsy literally screamed yesterday, as only a former news anchor can, when Megyn Kelly teased a segment about the latest poll by saying, "So is it all wrapped up?"  Betsy screamed:  "Wrapped up?  It hasn't even begun yet!"  Your long national nightmare may about to be over, but ours has just begun!  :)

And you can have it!!!  I think it's far from wrapped up.  This isn't the condensed primary like it was last time.  Plus despite the media's determination that the contest is over, I really don't believe it for a minute.

Cillaliz, tell your folks you are unplugging the phone and not to call you unless they use the cell phone.

Well, there have only been 4 calls this afternoon while I was working at home and it will end tonight.  A judge this morning told me they had even called him at the office!  And they aren't allowed to caucus.  He said while he was trying to watch football last night there were 9 political ads in a row and one of them was repeated 3 times.

I have an app simply named Cards with which you can add a picture from your iPhone to a greeting card, add any text you want, and have the card mailed to any address.  It costs $2.99 but that's about the price of a store-bought greeting card plus a stamp.  I've yet to try it but I will use it one day.

The Ron Paul kid was really funny, I give him props for being a 20 year old and being so involved, but I don't have a clue what the young ones see in him.  So, that's my report.  I came home to a quiet house... whew!

Vögel vs Vogel!

I thnk tomorrow I'll work on my French accents.

On the iTouch, iPhone and iPad all you have to do is hold down the "key" and then a pop-up menu pops up from which you can pick your accent, marking.

I then took my parents to a kabob place for lunch. It was a very good lunch, and my parents were very impressed with the complimentary cup of soup that the owner proffered us. -I didn't have the heart to tell them that he always does that, it's something to tide his diners over while their kabobs are being grilled. ;)

My Dad was also quite fascinated with the tandoor oven. He actually stood at the counter for about five minutes watching the cook prepare the kabobs and naan.

No disrespect intended, but this Tweet made me LOL, re: tonight's results:  For the record, I think the order will be: Racist, Phony, Homophobe.

:D  the sad thing is it's hard to tell which candidate is limited to each word? 
I agree.

Watching "Petulia." Haven't seen this movie in 30 years at least. Forgot how brutal some of it is. But Julie Christie is amazing. Though she almost always is.

Today I became a virtuoso on the Mac keyboard and I am a diacritical fool! Today, since i'm working on German lyrics, I am umlaut mad:

gedrükt

Vögel vs Vogel!

I thnk tomorrow I'll work on my French accents.

On the iTouch, iPhone and iPad all you have to do is hold down the "key" and then a pop-up menu pops up from which you can pick your accent, marking.

À Á Â Æ Ã
Ō ö ø œ
Š ç ÿ ł ñ ß

Etc.

I keep thinking there will be something incorporated into the Mac OS to make it just as easy on their desktop models. -Maybe there already is. ???

That is very cool, DR Jose - thanks for the tip!

DR Ginny - The other great keyboard shortcut is when you're typing in URL's: hold down the "." and you'll get a pop-up menu with .com .net .org, etc.

I got up to sixteen pages so far and will try to finish this little section I'm in, which means I'll have done eighteen or nineteen by the end of the evening.  Tomorrow I won't have any interruptions, so that's good.

I'm watching the new show, "Work It," essentially a new version of "Bosom Buddies."  Reports (before it aired) were that it would be offensive and should be pulled from the schedule.  So far, there have been some fairly funny moments.

I don't think that there was anything to offend anyone.  We'll just have to see how it plays out in the season.
