In a few hours Bryan and Craig will be watching the extra special fireworks in Bucharest, extra special to celebrate Romania’s entrance into the EU tomorrow.

Unfortunately Bryan’s coat didn’t arrive with him since it was packed inside his new suitcase, along with all his other essentials, camera and his MCAP books. Using the powers of this site I’m sending him good vibes his luggage arrives, or at the least is located, very, very soon.

~~~Luggage Vibes for Jane's DS Bryan!!~~~

Doris Roberts was also on Remington Steele with Pierce Brosnan and Stephanie Zimbalist.

I loved that show! Pierce was very attractive back then (he's certainly aged most gracefully

). but I've never seen any of his Bond movies. $:-\$

Had a phone call, then realized that my little rare paperback book section had never been properly alphabetized - those who know me know that I don't like that sort of thing, so I did it right then and there.

The theme song to Angie is one of my favorite songs. My recollection is that it was quite a funny show and one of my favorites at the time.

I remember that my sister and I really liked this show. We were sad when it was cancelled.

One of the first things that I will do when I empty out my storage unit is to put my CDs on my shelves and alphabetize them. I need to know where my musicals are.

And now I must shower, shave and dress. Then I want to go shopping and find a new jacket...something light but will keep me warm and dry. I have a couple of heavy winter jackets, but I rarely need them.

The regular jacket that I have now is several years old (my mom got it for me for Christmas and now she hates it). Anyway, a couple of the snaps no longer stay closed and it's just annoying, so I must find a new jacket.

Until later!

I don't know if I'll be back before I go to dinner, but I'll definitely be back before midnight PST.

While all the CDs are alphabetized (by genre), I've never gotten around to doing it for the movie theme CDs, and it drives me crazy trying to find anything. It's something I'll get to, but it's a major job.

I feel we should set a new record. We won't beat our Academy Awards night, but we can certainly enter the top ten, something no New Year's Rockin' Eve has done.

My stuff is organized by genre and then alphabetical

I am the same way... Every book has its place in the pecking order. Genre, Subject and Author... In some instances size comes into play when it comes to storage.

I have a sizeable Irish Lit and history collection, Sci fi, and non-fiction that includes art, theatre, photography and natue.

I do have some neat schoolbooks from the 1860s and 1870s. The oldest book in my collection is a geography book from 1860.

Good afternoon, fellow Dear Readers.

I must make playdough and soup for tonight.

I do have an interesting little book. It is a copy of a Louis L'Amour book published in French.

Yes, playdough. I know how to party!

Actually, the playdough is going with some ladies who will be working at a FEMA center in New Orleans which opens tomorrow to help folks who are going to be going home. They will abe caring for the children while the parents file their paperwork. I was asked to go also, but I have a three-day retreat in Pomona to go to during that time.

Back from a jog. Coudy and cool, but pleasant. I passed another jogger early on and he was going twice as fast as me. I passed him again at the tail end of the jog, and I was going faster than him.

Wouldn't it be great to get to page eight?

The soup is for the soup-tasting party tonight.

I can, however, already tell you that this will be the highest December, posting-wise, we've ever had, and by quite a margin.

I still haven't decided which foodstuff it's going to be. But I'll have to decide soon, as I'm getting hungry.

We must be close to page eight, which I'm sure is lying in wait.
