From DR Vixmom:
Quote
How much do you want to bet that that young lady had  just been chastised for taking a call and failing to find out the prospective patients name, phone number and referral source.

It did cross my mind she was supposed to ask you was calling but do say "WHERE DID YOU GET THIS NUMBER?" is a very odd question. 

  My guess is the questions should have been

May I please take  your name, Ma'am?

May I please take your phone number in case we need to reach you?

May I ask how you  heard of our office?

CONGRATS to THE VIXTER. I have no doubt that she was very deserving of this award. But it's no surprise, as we know that the Vixfamily has a very strong work ethic. I hope that she's a role model for the other workers.

Thankyou  for the kind words Jeanne!

Good evening, all.

AVENUE Q was good, but I hope ours will be better.  Now I needs to get me down to the city to see the current production.

I knew as soon as BK told us his concept for the sets that I'd love them. I certainly love what I see in the photos. God willing, I shall be able to see them up close and personal this week.

sneak a video camera in there and  make copies for the rest of us.. shhhhhhhhh  don't tell bk!  :)

Well, yesterday here was the first truly nice spring-like day that we've had. It was prom night for many, so like the good Uncles that we are, we trooped over to the Walker Art Museum near downtown Minneapolis to see our niece getting pre-photos taken.




That's an interesting sculpture being used for a background for pictures of  young ladies on prom night.  I suspect it gave some parents pause for thought

Most of the young men were in traditional black tie. I remember that when I went to prom, the latest thing was a pastel ruffly front (not sure what you call it, or if it even has a name?) that attached to the front of the shirt. None of those in evidence yesterday.

Oh yes, I have your picture here on my wall

Thanks, DR Jeanne!  We were looking forward to being in her life more as one of the benefits of moving to the midwest. But by this time next year, she'll be heading away to school somewhere else.

Conneticut?

A belated happy Sunday to all,

I know I've gone missing this week. it was a very difficult one and I didn't want to bring that in here. It was simply something to be weathered. The worst is over, so all is as well as can be.

BK, I've been reading your reports on Abner. Congrats on how well things are going. I'm not certain which night I'm coming, but I will be there. It all depends on the timing of certain auditions this week.

I hope everyone has had a great week. Onward and upward.   :D

(((Ryako)))  Vibes for better days

DR Vixmom I reread you post and see that I missed the "not" before dreaded.  I'm glad you weren't worrying about it.

I was too worried about getting caught in a vise

The Daisy Mae costume was a bit of a fail as you can see.  They waited too long to even begin it, from what I understand.  Maddy was very uncomfortable in it and I, of course, want my polka dots.  So, Maddy and her mom are making their own costume and we'll see if we all like it tomorrow - if not, then costumes will build one we do like.

I got a lot accomplished today while still managing to relax a bit.  Then I saw Terri White, who was terrific in an act that was sometimes great, sometimes not.

Then I came home and watched the latest of Mad Men, which, for me, was one of the best episodes they've ever done, mostly because it was Peggy-centric and those scenes with her and Don were as well written as any in the history of the show.

I'm watching "The Women of SNL."  It's a rerun from 2010, but the clips are still pretty darned funny.

I'm 3/4 through "Winter's Tale" (which is a long book), but as soon as that's done, I'm going to start "Red Gold" from the very beginning.
