George, go to bed!!!
George, go to bed!!!
I will. I'm just finishing the DVD of the "Doctor Who" 50th anniversary specials for Vixmom and myself. :)
I did order another new watch on sale on Amazon. Its really cool. I love watches and decided to wrap it and stick it under the tree with my name on it and not say anything and then act surprised. I don't usually have as many gifts to unwrap as the others, which is fine, I don't have kids an grandkids, but I thought it might be fun to just stick a couple under the tree from the cats.
My taxi driver was a disappointment. Without telling me beforehand that he hated driving through Times Square so he drove out of his way to Fifth Avenue and down to 27th. I was not amused.
Fifth Avenue?!
At Artie's I pledged to DR Elmore a day of car service extraordinaire, for Toyland and anything else around town that needs or wants doing.
Sorry for the delay, Mr. DR Elmore, sir, but I'll be free for this to happen on pretty much any day after Thanksgiving weekend!
Sorry to hear about your doggie friend DR JANE.
And the word of the day is: AMARANTHINE!
I am hoping that today's rehearsal will not be quite the marathon that yesterday's rehearsal turned out to be. The theater provided pizza and salad for us around 3:30, so I guess they figured they had paid us for the entire day. Also, since they are giving us all of Thanksgiving Day off, I guess they need to work us to death before that day.
Jane, I am so sorry to read about that dog.

Since it was a Saturday, they probably figured they could keep the kids as long as they wanted without the parents getting upset.
Thanks for the comments on the Broadway World article. I had to give the theater permission to go with the cripple comeback story. We will probably sell out the run anyway, but I figured I might as well help the only way I could.
DR Jennifer it seems odd to me the swimmers don't compete against each other at the same time. I'm glad you find it interesting since you are the one watching ;)

Nice that they asked for permission first, and I like how they simplified your story. I'm very happy you are doing what you love again.

The more e-books I read the more I realize I love reading on my kindle. So convenient.

From your response I'm not sure if I explained it properly.
The swimmers are competing against other swimmers, with comparable times. Only the boys and girls are mixed together (swimming against each other). Also since these are the first meets sometimes the seed times (times the coaches send as the swimmers times) are not accurate (for instance they put my niece at 33 seconds for butterfly when her race time was 24 seconds).
What I meant by "they don't swim against each other" is that say for example for butterfly. There were 25 heats. If you race in heat 22 and are the fastest they still have to compare your time to the other 25 heats. So sometimes there are kids in your heat who are not that great. Or sometimes you could win your heat, yet there could be 10 people faster than you in the other heats.
In summer swimming you know right away if you win or not. It is girls vs girls only. Coaches decide which are there fastest swimmers to put in the first heat.
It actually wasn't that interesting to watch yesterday except for when my niece was swimming.

Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses?
I am so proud of niece. They just posted the meet results. 88 girls swam.
She got 2nd place for front crawl streamline (put your arms in front of your head and kick), 11th for butterfly, 6th for Individual Medley (one fly, one back, one breast and one free). And for her least favorite stroke (which she thinks she is bad at but is improving a lot) breast stroke she got 29th place. Yeah!
Fantastic day at the Wizard World Austin Comic Con. I sold many, many books.
The more e-books I read the more I realize I love reading on my kindle. So convenient.
I have the paperback of "The Little Prince" sitting here to read for my book group. The print is very light and not easy to read so I have been putting off reading it. The book is free from my library and my only other option is to purchase an eBook. I'll read it next week.

I love The Little Prince!
thank you for the vibes I am feeling a little better today
I tried to be a considerate audience member sucked cough drops (wrapped in paper not cellophane) and tried to time my coughing to coincide with the applause
Today is going to be a day. It's the last performance of the Theater Artists Olympia and Animal Fire Theatre co-production of "American Roulette." I don't know how many people came to the performances this weekend so far, but the first two weekends weren't too bad.
After today's performance, I'll offer to help strike the set (which really isn't much, at all, so they may not need help...no, really...they might not ;) ) and then we'll put it all away.
Hope Singdaw is faring well with his move.
DR George I'm glad you had a good ending to your show.

in honor of George taking care of the theater's money, that is
And I am home!
I need some lunch.
Or a drink.
