And vibes for the rest of us!
To DR Elmore, for financial resolution.
And even to myself, for not-terrible news upon taking a kitty with kidney disease (who is generally doing very well) for a six-month checkup at the vet today.
How's the weather in SW Ohio, DR Ginny? Please keep that warm stuff coming!
Vibes for Vixgrandad!
vixmom, was the word you were looking for last night sous-vide?. THAT'S IT!!!!!!!!!! I know Skip has been using this method for a while but I have never had the pleasure of tasting meat cooked using this method before

nap pie seems like it might be especially delicious
But this is why we have servants, DR Ginny. Apparently you don't know how to delegate!
And the word of the day is: OPEROSE!
Oh, and does anyone know how to use just half an avocado and store the other half without it immediately turning brown and yucky? I was planning to Google that today.
I woke up at 5am with the solution

I love it when that happens! :)

I have never done this. But I knew the name. I watch a lot of Top Chef. :)
I knew that once I started watching "The Book Thief" that I would not be able to stop. An excellent adaptation of an even better book. I really don't understand some of the criticism this movie received.
WestJet (which we had never flown before) kindly arranged to have our connecting flight held at the gate while we collected our luggage went through customs and rechecked the luggage
They managed all this with a 4 year old a 2 year old and a 8 day old to care for... Little wonder SIL insisted we not call with regrets
...Rodgers & Hammerstein may have (I typed MAY HAVE) a wonderful editing job for me in the not-too-far future...
Good morning, all! I slept really poorly, but i am up and ready for physical therapy.
My bank account is almost back to normal: the company on whom the fraudulent charges were made has indeed credited the full amount. Now I need to fight with my bank for the refund of the overdrawn fees. When that comes through, I still have very little but it's much better than it was yesterday.
TOD:
Thankfully, I haven't had to do the grocery shopping since I got married.
:D
I missed the news about the earthquake as we had not seen any tv. We have the news on now...YIKES!!! Did I read last night that someone had heard from RLP and that he was OK?
Thanks for the vibes, everyone. The kitty did well at the vet, and tomorrow we'll have up to date blood work results.
...Rodgers & Hammerstein may have (I typed MAY HAVE) a wonderful editing job for me in the not-too-far future...
That sounds loverly! VIBES! (I typed FIBES)
Bruce I find it interesting you don't like Anderson's accent since she learned to speak while living in England. Although she is from the States she lived there until she was 11.
I am home from therapy and back to it on Thursday at 1:00; they are taking Friday-Monday off for Labor Day. I stopped at the bank since I had to APPLY for the overdrawn charges to be refunded. What a jackass group of bankers.
However, I got home to discover that Rodgers & Hammerstein may have (I typed MAY HAVE) a wonderful editing job for me in the not-too-far future. The sooner the better, in my book.
If it happens.

Great news on the returned funds and good luck with getting the charges back...AND especially GOOD LUCK with the (potential) R&H job!! :D

I've seen interviews where she talks about that. I would've thought that her accent would be pretty accurate...unless moving back to the states made her forget what it should really sound like.

Actually, I woke up because it felt like the cat had jumped on the bed. I then realized I have no cat. I then freaked just a tad wondering what it was that jumped on my bed.

My Miss Vickie had shrunken kidneys. I had a special medicine compounded for her monthly at a compounding pharmacy in Berkeley. I also administered lactated ringers several times a week. To see her "revive" and become playful after the ringers were administered made it worthwhile. In hindsight, though...it was a lot of work.
Nice description DR RLP.
I am now on my way to our first FULL run through of The Man Who.....

For those who don't know: while "lactated ringers" sounds like something one shouldn't mention on a G-rated site, it's the technical term for "fluids".
I've been administering fluids every four days since early December when her kidneys decided to go south on her, so nothing new here. And it's amazing how fluids can extend and improve (that's the important part) a pet's life. He may want to change the frequency or go to a special diet, but that's really all I'm expecting to hear.

I just spoke to my adopted son Joshie. His violin teacher Suzy and my drummer friend Ray Marchica had posted about the killing of violinist Mary Whitaker last week. She played Joshie's orchestration of The Cradle Will rock at City Center last summer.

More TOD - I've often told Richard that it would take us a long time to starve in our house, but it might get pretty weird after a while.

I saw a couple of interviews with her on some British shows on BBC America and she used a British accent for them. But for any interview in the states, she has always used an American accent.

I love the cover, but you might get more work if you put your name on the cover.
This "bird" got out of the cage a little sooner that I would have preferred, but since it's now free, I might as well let it fly.

I just finished reading my 100th book for the year. At almost 900 pages I'm glad it was an excellent one. Has anyone read "I Know This Much Is True" by Wally Lamb or anything else he wrote?I read that at one time....was it an Oprah book or was another Wally Lamb
So, no Emmy party. I guess I will put the ham chunks away.

"She's Come Undone" is the other one. I thought I had read it and didn't like it but now I'm not so sure. My eBook library doesn't have it and I don't want to purchase a book I have already read. I should look at see if it is on a book shelf in the house. I got rid of a lot of books awhile back.

Has anyone listened to "A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder"? It's an odd score with the strangest set of orchestrations I can remember. I like some of it, but a lot of it sounds like rehashed Noel Coward and Rupert Holmes' score for "Edwin Drood."

I really enjoyed it. It did remind me of "Drood," but I just chalked it up to both being set in a similar time and both being written in similar musical styles.
But that's just me. :)
