Well, you've read the notes, the notes were quite Turkish and filled with daffy taffy, and now it is time for you to post until the cigarillo-smoking cows come home.

I am home today.  The Packard Humanities Institute sent me three more files of music from Babes In Toyland and asked me to check them out, so I will do that before I move on to the choral arrangement.

I liked Mike Bloomberg as our mayor.  He was much better than Giuliani and our current jerk De Blasio,  so I'm very curious about his presidential thoughts.  I am irritated that he's taken so long to make a decision.

Well, it seems I am always either off to the car place or the cat place. Let’s hope I never confuse the two, right? Today Poe gets a quick blood draw to see how the thyroid med is working. I’ve got half an hour before I have to get ready to go and thrust him into the carrier.

He doesn’t know it yet, but I’ve drugged him with the Gabapentin that calms him and, a few hours hence, leaves him downright loopy.

Once we’re back home, it’s back to the music proofing and editing for me. I’m not exactly qualified to REALLY do that, but anything I can fix is a huge improvement over the way my friend’s notation program leaves things. He doesn’t know Finale or Sibelius; this is some horrid old piece of freeware that you just about have to kick to get it to do things right.

I had to call my health insurer today. The guy who was helping me was very friendly and clearly has been in the job a number of years. While I had him on the phone, out of curiosity I told him about Vixmom's mom's ER bill and asked if he's seen this much. He laughed and said yes and all sorts of other things. He said they fight it and eventually the hospital backs down. He said that the worst are the ambulance companies. Apparently, much of the billing is now done off-shore, even though the companies are US-based.

He also commented that none of the policies being talked about in the political debates will address the stuff he sees daily. That's not surprising. Greed and incompetence will still be around. But I did find his perspective interesting.

I used to be good at both grammar and punctuation; but beginning in the 1980’s, when I wet to work for the welfare office, my abilities went downhill (or down-hill).

I had a very strange dream this afternoon.  I was working in a funeral home/cemetery(?) place.  This young lady (all of 16) brought her two younger cousins to visit their father’s grave for the first time.  Don’t ask.

The young lady and her cousins came storming back into my office.  They had found the grave and she was horrified, because her uncle was an Orthodox Jew, and we had buried him in the Christian section of the cemetery.  Not only that, but we had buried him at the base of the giant 100 foot gold cross.

Seattle has become quite the soccer-mad city.

It's probably just the latest passing fad.  Wait until they get professional hockey.  I'm sure that that'll become the latest fad. ;)

Thanks, jan.  It's a comfy quilt.  And David Tennant is my favorite Doctor.  I only started watching when they rebooted with Christopher Eccleston, but he was only on for a year, and David was on for four years.  I loved David's pairing with Catherine Tate as Donna Noble!  The best part...NO ROMANCE!!  Just witty banter.

Sadly, because the temperature was under 50 and there was a drizzle, the turnout was light.

Starting to watch The Scalphunters with Burt Lancaster. I think it might be Syndey Pollack's first movie. I have never heard of it.

Anybody going to see Midway? I'm slightly interested simply because I enjoyed the one with Charlton Heston and Henry Fonda. I knew it was garbage, but I still enjoyed it.

Not too much.  Just checking e-mail and kind of watching The King and I.
