I watched a good film last night, THE DISAPPEARANCE OF ALICE CREED.

It's a low budget British kidnapping thriller with 2-3 surprising plot twists.

Only 3 characters in it.

Good morning, all! Yesterday was a totally lazy day, in which I read a bit of a new book about the series KEEPING UP APPEARANCES, watched too much tv, and puttered around the apartment. I did accomplish a couple of hours' work on the reports on BABES IN TOYLAND and THE LADY OF THE SLIPPER. but the rest of the day was completely selfish.

Today, I have to be at the Academy at 12:30 for a session to record 3-4 of the Victor Herbert piano solos, so I believe the only folk there today will be William Hicks, the pianist, our producer Judy Serman, Jean, her assistant, and myself. It should run smoothly. Last night I had a ton of dreams about next week's recording session, and it was most anxiety-ridden. We appearedto be recording in a huge auditorium, but when I stepped outside, we seemed to be in the Brooklyn Navy Yard, with huge ships and water everywhere!

BK, if there's a problem assigning another number to one of your men, can't you simply take another number from your sources for the Broadway and Hollywood albums that didn't make the cut?

On my way to the market, I passed the Oaf who was returning from walking his dog. He's not been speaking because, I suspect, he's pissed about me complaining to the landlord about his nocturnal noises. I just had to turn up the sound on the CD player because he's having a noisy round of bouncing bed springs.

If there were a god, the Oaf would be deported back to Toronto.

Or I'd be rich enough to move.

Good morning.

I slept well enough, but was plagued by a seemingly continuous dream about the changing landscape of Pittsburgh.
I was working with catering folk from Carnegie Mellon in downtown Pittsburgh where there were Christmas Gift Buses being set up on the main streets downtown.  Double-decker buses decorated it red, green and gold, where people were boarding to get their gifts wrapped.
I had to leave downtown as my shift was over, but, I realized I did not have my car with me, so I took public transportation, which was a roller coaster around the suburbs of Pittsburgh.  There was also a tour guide aboard who was pointing out the sites along the way as well as the neighborhoods.  We went through a triple tunnel carved out of a mountain and crossed a river where we told we all had to disembark and travel the rest of our routes on foot.  I thought it very odd that I would have to walk twenty some miles to get home even though it was a bright sunshiny day.
From the point of the three rivers, I decided I would go a little piece up the Allegheny, where I would be able to get a ride from someone who worked at one of the restaurants I had worked at: Red Fin Blues.
To get to the restaurant, I had to make a leap off of a cliff-face into which a video store had been "carved."  The leap was astonishing smooth, as I landed on the flat metal awning of the video store, which had plastic sheets covering its windows.
I walked a couple of blocks to the open-air restaurant, sat down and was served by the naked owner:  well, the only nakedness I saw was his back, his legs and his torso - no face, no full-frontal, but, nude and serving several tables.  He served me a deep-fried key chain, with one key still intact.
I took the key with me, hugged the owner, thanking him and began the long trek home.

Have at that, dear readers!

TD-

As You Know I graduated From Carnegie Mellon(Carnegie Tech at that time) with a BFA in Drama(A Dramat)(A '56)


I have been searching my mind for the name of A Restaurant within walking distance of the campus on Forbes that I frequented frequently.

Can't remember. Only that that they served(amoung other things) A wonderful Steak.

Do You Remember Same and If You Do What Was The Name?

Yesterday, I made the journey north and east to see the new house built by my youngest cousin and her significant other in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains.  The home is stunning and has a breathtaking view that even JMK would envy.  The house is located on a ridge outside of Carnation, Washington.  When I arrived the house was enveloped in low hanging clouds, but shortly after dinner all of the clouds moved out to revveal the incredible view.  Did I remember to take my camera?  Of course not, that would be too logical.

Also in attendance yesterday was my eldest cousin who turned 70 this year.  She still looks wonderful, and probably would be pegged as someone ten or fifteen years younger.  As always, we had a wonderful visit; and I drove home wondering (as I always do) why we don't get together more often.

I was particularly caught up in this week's "Studio 360". It was part of their "American Icons" (http://beta.studio360.org/series/american-icons/) series, and today's icon was Buffalo Bill Cody.  It covers both the exploits of the real life Buffalo Bill, as well as the various fictional incarnations of Buffalo Bill. Quite a good listen.

Good afternoon.  I went to the office and realized I have enough time tomorrow to get the writing done I need to do, so i went to the mall.   After  my silly purging of "fat" clothes when I last lost weight, i managed to get rid of almost all my sweaters and didn't replace them last year.  I just had shells and jackets.  Ok for work not so much for casual hanging out. So I went to a great sale today and was amazed and how much I got for very little money.  Then I went to the only store I can find jeans that fit me.  They are too expensive in my mind, but they fit and are last.  Anyway, It's good to have that done.

Thanks everyone for the opening night vibes for Sunset Blvd  It was a great show, and people seem to love it.  Two more weekends of the show.  I'm very happy with the results, everyone has worked very hard to get us to this place.  I can honestly say that this production beats out my other "dream" show (Aspects of Love) as this production is tighter and a lot more fun.  Aspects was plagued with cast issues, and a much tougher score.  However, if I ever had a chance to do it again, I would in a second.  Time makes us wiser.

Good morning.

I slept well enough, but was plagued by a seemingly continuous dream about the changing landscape of Pittsburgh.
I was working with catering folk from Carnegie Mellon in downtown Pittsburgh where there were Christmas Gift Buses being set up on the main streets downtown.  Double-decker buses decorated it red, green and gold, where people were boarding to get their gifts wrapped.
I had to leave downtown as my shift was over, but, I realized I did not have my car with me, so I took public transportation, which was a roller coaster around the suburbs of Pittsburgh.  There was also a tour guide aboard who was pointing out the sites along the way as well as the neighborhoods.  We went through a triple tunnel carved out of a mountain and crossed a river where we told we all had to disembark and travel the rest of our routes on foot.  I thought it very odd that I would have to walk twenty some miles to get home even though it was a bright sunshiny day.
From the point of the three rivers, I decided I would go a little piece up the Allegheny, where I would be able to get a ride from someone who worked at one of the restaurants I had worked at: Red Fin Blues.
To get to the restaurant, I had to make a leap off of a cliff-face into which a video store had been "carved."  The leap was astonishing smooth, as I landed on the flat metal awning of the video store, which had plastic sheets covering its windows.
I walked a couple of blocks to the open-air restaurant, sat down and was served by the naked owner:  well, the only nakedness I saw was his back, his legs and his torso - no face, no full-frontal, but, nude and serving several tables.  He served me a deep-fried key chain, with one key still intact.
I took the key with me, hugged the owner, thanking him and began the long trek home.

Have at that, dear readers!

Why is he mad that you're complaining?  The landlord obviously did nothing to stop his behavior.

You'd think he'd be upset that he's bothering you. Or mortified that you can hear him.

*Actually, I woke up at 8:30 - just in time to hear "The Puzzler" segment on NPR's "Weekend Edition", and then I proceeded to listen to the rest of the Sunday line-up on WNYC...

DR Jose - did you hear the Morning Edition segment about Arena Stage?

On my way to the market, I passed the Oaf who was returning from walking his dog. He's not been speaking because, I suspect, he's pissed about me complaining to the landlord about his nocturnal noises. I just had to turn up the sound on the CD player because he's having a noisy round of bouncing bed springs.

If there were a god, the Oaf would be deported back to Toronto.

Or I'd be rich enough to move.

Why is he mad that you're complaining?  The landlord obviously did nothing to stop his behavior.

You'd think he'd be upset that he's bothering you. Or mortified that you can hear him.

LOL, one would expect he would be mortified. ;D

We had a 3-hour session and recorded three piano solos. Billy played beautifully, an, since I got home around 4:30, I've been cleaning up the mess I left this morning; I'm redoing filing cabinets and I left clutter all over the apartment.

Now I need to wash some greens for my dinner salad.  Tomorrow morning I'll move the two drawers containing all my DVDs of tv programs to another filing cabinet.

Now get me off this damned page!

I guess they gave up their contract with the pet stores here in town. So now they would go into the general population at the shelter. I would like to keep them out of the shelter and at the adoption bus. The adoption bus lady has Mondays and Tuesdays off, so they are home until she gets back on Wednesday.

Post by: Cillaliz on November 07, 2010, 05:18:58 PM
Good morning.

I slept well enough, but was plagued by a seemingly continuous dream about the changing landscape of Pittsburgh.
I was working with catering folk from Carnegie Mellon in downtown Pittsburgh where there were Christmas Gift Buses being set up on the main streets downtown.  Double-decker buses decorated it red, green and gold, where people were boarding to get their gifts wrapped.
I had to leave downtown as my shift was over, but, I realized I did not have my car with me, so I took public transportation, which was a roller coaster around the suburbs of Pittsburgh.  There was also a tour guide aboard who was pointing out the sites along the way as well as the neighborhoods.  We went through a triple tunnel carved out of a mountain and crossed a river where we told we all had to disembark and travel the rest of our routes on foot.  I thought it very odd that I would have to walk twenty some miles to get home even though it was a bright sunshiny day.
From the point of the three rivers, I decided I would go a little piece up the Allegheny, where I would be able to get a ride from someone who worked at one of the restaurants I had worked at: Red Fin Blues.
To get to the restaurant, I had to make a leap off of a cliff-face into which a video store had been "carved."  The leap was astonishing smooth, as I landed on the flat metal awning of the video store, which had plastic sheets covering its windows.
I walked a couple of blocks to the open-air restaurant, sat down and was served by the naked owner:  well, the only nakedness I saw was his back, his legs and his torso - no face, no full-frontal, but, nude and serving several tables.  He served me a deep-fried key chain, with one key still intact.
I took the key with me, hugged the owner, thanking him and began the long trek home.

Have at that, dear readers!


A very strange dream indeed, td.  I like the deep-fried key chain.  Be careful where you post this dream.  If Tim Burton sees it, it could be his next film.

I wonder if George has a deep-fried keychain in his collection?

I'm still looking for a good one to send to him...maybe I should deep fry one, lol

Hello, everyone.

Today I attempted to play "call me Cillaliz." There was some cleaning, tossing, and organizing that was overdue, and I keep trying to get to it. I knew I couldn't do it all today, but I did manage to do the first pass, plus the laundry. Of course, if I was in true Cillaliz fashion, there'd be painting and a few dozen other chores as well. Mine was a mini, mini tornado.

Having served his time with the Marine Corps, a man  became a school teacher and before school started he injured his back.

He was required to wear a plaster cast around the upper  part of his body.

Fortunately, the cast fit under his shirt and  wasn't even noticeable.

On the first day of class, he found himself assigned to  the toughest students in the school.

Walking confidently into the  rowdy classroom, he opened the window wide and sat down at his  desk.

When a strong breeze made his tie  flap, he took a stapler and stapled the tie to his chest.

He  had no trouble with discipline that year... SEMPER FI

LOL Jeanne!  I do tend to do it in tornado style.  I'm either doing 50 things or none.   I did do the garage and outside stuff today.  It was a lot of work, but it's in the 70s outside and I wanted to be outside and do it when it's warm not when it's 20 degrees and I have to do it NOW.  I still have to deal with some leaves, but other than that I'm ready for winter.

I don't think our local shelter fixes any of the kittens until they know they are going to be adopted.

At our shelter you have to sign a contract that you will get the animal neutered or spayed within 30 days, they call and ask if you've done it.  They called the other day and I told them the vet won't do it until he's done with his ringworm treatment and the girl said "Oh, did he have ringworm?"  I've only told them 3 times already.   she's probably a volunteer and wouldn't know that, but it irritated me.
Title: Re: TIME AFTER TIME
Post by: Laura on November 07, 2010, 05:42:02 PM
Here you choose your animal, and then they keep it until it is spayed/neutered. The fostered animals don't get fixed until the end of the week so that those adopted on the weekend can go to their new homes Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday.

Ricky has to go in tomorrow for one more treatment.  I'm not sure he absolutely needs it, but everything I read says don't stop too soon, so we will go in for one last week of stinking like sulfur.  I'm really sick of smelling it

DR Elmore, is it a Swedish novel or just a Swedish movie version?

It's a Swedish novel by John Ajvide Lindquist. I like the book so much, I'm thinking about buying the original hardcover edition. There were a few amazing twists in the plot that are quite surprising.
Thanks.  I'm normally not a big vampire fan, but I'm not opposed to them.  I am interested in trying other Swedish writers, so I think i'll get this one

Check the reviews on Amazon.com. I think you'll enjoy it. It's good and creepy.

That's what I was doing.  I could use a good creepy novel.  I'm going to order it

Just ordered it.  Thanks Elmore!

You're very welcome! I'm almost finished with it, so I can watch the movie next week. I'm wondering if one of the really big twists makes the movie. Currently, all hell is breaking loose outside Stockholm.

I don't want to listen to Obama again, I want to watch TAR

I'm so glad that we don't have football on CTV to interfere with TAR. That would drive me crazy. I like to watch at 8pm.

Oddly, I was just checking out the TAR facebook page and people on it were fuming that the results were being discussed at 9pm (when it ended here and was supposed to end in the US).

I do get why people would be mad to be spoiled. Or why they might be mad that Canada gets to watch it and CBS is always being delayed by football. But if you know that the show is airing in places and ending at 9pm why would you read the page if you don't want to get spoied??

The original Swedish film, Let Me In, is fantastic - haven't seen the recently released US version and don't really have any need to, since the original is so great.

Back from Amoeba - I had three boxes of trade stuff and hit the jackpot with six hundred bucks in credit.  I got one Blu and Ray and quite a few import CDs (Brubeck mostly), and still have over three hundred bucks in credit left.

Good morning.

I slept well enough, but was plagued by a seemingly continuous dream about the changing landscape of Pittsburgh.
I was working with catering folk from Carnegie Mellon in downtown Pittsburgh where there were Christmas Gift Buses being set up on the main streets downtown.  Double-decker buses decorated it red, green and gold, where people were boarding to get their gifts wrapped.
I had to leave downtown as my shift was over, but, I realized I did not have my car with me, so I took public transportation, which was a roller coaster around the suburbs of Pittsburgh.  There was also a tour guide aboard who was pointing out the sites along the way as well as the neighborhoods.  We went through a triple tunnel carved out of a mountain and crossed a river where we told we all had to disembark and travel the rest of our routes on foot.  I thought it very odd that I would have to walk twenty some miles to get home even though it was a bright sunshiny day.
From the point of the three rivers, I decided I would go a little piece up the Allegheny, where I would be able to get a ride from someone who worked at one of the restaurants I had worked at: Red Fin Blues.
To get to the restaurant, I had to make a leap off of a cliff-face into which a video store had been "carved."  The leap was astonishing smooth, as I landed on the flat metal awning of the video store, which had plastic sheets covering its windows.
I walked a couple of blocks to the open-air restaurant, sat down and was served by the naked owner:  well, the only nakedness I saw was his back, his legs and his torso - no face, no full-frontal, but, nude and serving several tables.  He served me a deep-fried key chain, with one key still intact.
I took the key with me, hugged the owner, thanking him and began the long trek home.

Have at that, dear readers!


A very strange dream indeed, td.  I like the deep-fried key chain.  Be careful where you post this dream.  If Tim Burton sees it, it could be his next film.

I wonder if George has a deep-fried keychain in his collection?

I'm still looking for a good one to send to him...maybe I should deep fry one, lol

I'm not picky. ;)

Finished with my viewing.  I may write the notes early and get them posted so I can get to bed early.

Good Evening!

I decided to go ahead and head down to the finish line area of the ING New York City Marathon just to watch all the runners reuniting with their family and friends. -When my brother ran the marathon two years ago, I really found all the the "reunions" quite inspiring and moving.  Today was no different.

*And as an added bonus... I happened to notice this one guy kneeling down behind one of the walls along Central Park West holding a video camera.  He was filming a couple who was sitting on one of the rocks just inside the Park.  And I noticed a woman also "hiding" next to him talking to someone on her cellphone. Sure enough, a few minutes later, the man on the rock pulled a ring out of his jacket, and proposed to the woman, who happened to have just finished running the marathon.  So, not only had only did she garner a finisher's medal, but she also scored and engagement ring today too! -And she did say, "Yes!".

*Actually, I woke up at 8:30 - just in time to hear "The Puzzler" segment on NPR's "Weekend Edition", and then I proceeded to listen to the rest of the Sunday line-up on WNYC...

DR Jose - did you hear the Morning Edition segment about Arena Stage?

DR Ginny - Yes, I did! *And I was also very happy to read that the reviews for their opening production of Oklahoma! have been stellar!

Thanks everyone for the opening night vibes for Sunset Blvd  It was a great show, and people seem to love it.  Two more weekends of the show.  I'm very happy with the results, everyone has worked very hard to get us to this place.  I can honestly say that this production beats out my other "dream" show (Aspects of Love) as this production is tighter and a lot more fun.  Aspects was plagued with cast issues, and a much tougher score.  However, if I ever had a chance to do it again, I would in a second.  Time makes us wiser.

Happy Sunday!

Happy Sunday to you too, DR Matthew!

*And I'm sure you put that extra hour last night to good use too. ;)

Went to the sleep clinic last night and wore breathing apparatus for the first time. Not as easy as I thought it would be I still woke up during the night and I was tired when I woke up. I was hoping that it would happen. We will see what will happen when I wear it on a full time basis

???

Will you be using a C-PAP machine?

Was being tired when you woke up in the middle of the night a good thing or a bad thing?

Will you also be buying/using those pillows especially designed for C-PAP users? -They help to keep you from moving around while you sleep, which could end up moving the mask off of your face.  In any case...

I wish you some truly better nights of sleep.

And as for tonight's "The Amazing Race".... Well...

I had set my DVR to record "The Amazing Race" as well as "Undercover Boss" just in case the football games ran over.  Well, the football games did run over.  Way over.  I should have set my DVR to record the program after "Undercover Boss" too.  -I have all but the last five minutes.

*DR Jennifer - The extra delay tonight is most likely the reason for all the complaints on the TAR Facebook page.
