DR Miss Karen, whatever became of Boo-key? He never writes, he never calls . . .

Good news! He was accepted into UCLA for next fall, just got the letter a few days ago -- their theatre department to finish up his BA. So he's been busy with school related stuff (20 hours of some general ed classes and a stage craft course there at LACC that he can transfer over) and filling out some scholarship applications (the UCLA Alumni Assoc. invited him to apply for one of their merit scholarships, and he just got notice that he is getting one from the Worth Foundation), etc. etc. So my Boo-Key Bear is going to be a Boo-Key Bruin. Once the dust settles, I'm sure we'll hear from the little stranger more often...

Tonight, I shall not be at Chat and Chew with DRs Ben, Ant and Cillaliz, however, I will be a few blocks away at the Rubin Museum of Art. I will be attending a Book Launch for the newest cookbook/travelogue by Naomi Alford and Jeffrey Duguid, Beyond the Great Wall: Recipes and Travels in the Other China. It should be a most informative - and tasty(!) - evening.

Ginny · « **Reply #102 on:** May 02, 2008, 08:41:48 AM »

What fun Friday evening plans described by DRs Ben and Jose. I've been to Chat & Chew and would love to go back. And, Jose, book events are right up my alley, so to speak. Have fun, all!

I'm getting my hair cut this evening and probably meeting DH Richard at Naing's Garden for dinner.

Ginny · « **Reply #103 on:** May 02, 2008, 08:46:29 AM »

Hi, DR Cillaliz - how's your seminar going?

I just spoke to Cilla, as she was "elevatoring" (I know that's not a word) and we're meeting for dinner at the retro and fun

Chat and Chew

We went there last time and liked it so much we're going again.

Yeah, with the weather so crummy a boat ride around Manhattan tonight sounds a little soggy.

Can't wait. I looked at the tickets and it's a DJ dance cruise from 9 PM to 12 AM... not really my cup of tea on a cool damp evening. I took the tickets to the meeting and within 2 minutes was able to give them to a couple of the vendors exhibiting stuff that were VERY thrilled to be able to go. I'm glad someone will be using them and I am glad it isn't me

I have a meeting tomorrow. I would probably enjoy it more if I had a mint julep.

So put it in a to go cup with a lid. No one will know

Well... Since you're not going on the cruise, I believe it is Full Frontal Friday at Splash.

You have to like bourbon to like a mint julep. It's bourbon sugar and mint if I remember right

RE: SURVIVOR (not about last night's show).

DR MBarnum said he could not tell the difference between Parvati (sp?) and Amanada.

It's funny i've never had a problem. But probably mostly because i remember them from their original seasons. Amanda was the one from last season. And Parv was from the season with ozzy and jonathan.

Amanda is the one who had been sucking face with ozzy all this season (my sis says they are still a couple). And Parv was the one who got switched to the other tribe and made that deal with natalie and alexis. She is the one who turned on ozzy 2 weeks ago.

All Saturn themes -- responsibility, focus and logic, structure and form, rules and regulations, executive authority, professional matters, practicality and pragmatism, old karma, fear and stress, time, contractions and restrictions, and chronic conditions (medical or otherwise) - are highlighted today and over the weekend. One way to utilize a Saturn station to your benefit is to learn from respected teachers and mentors. Sink your teeth into profound studies for several hours this evening.

Thank you, JRAND. I wonder if HHW qualifies as "profound studies"?

RE: the daytime emmys.

I love soaps. But some of the people nominated are not the best.

I don't really like the system they have to nominate people (the cast of each show selects the candidates). And i don't really like that people vote based only on 3 shows.

To me there are actors who are fantastic (christian leblanc who plays michael on Y&R for example). Yet he did not have any really great storylines this year. But i don't think the people voting even really watch the show. They only base it on the 3 episodes they are given.

So really if an actor has a great storyline, and if the fans know they are excellent that year, it really doesn't mean they will win. Plus the period of shows that are eligible are so far in advance of now, it's hard to even remember that stuff even happened!

We'll be preparing down to the minute tomorrow afternoon, so if you can avoid getting here before 5:30, that would be GREAT!

(Hmmm..is that a nice way of saying we won't be ready before 5:30? But we will be totally reday AT 5:30!!!!)

Since someone asked, Skip is doing the party for the HHW-ers as part of his present to me BUT BUT BUT the party is because of Cilla being in town, has nothing to do with my natal weekend. Hope that makes sense. As of now, it's Cilla, Ant, Ben, elmore, Jose, Julie (who will arrive a bit late after her appointment), Lois (a friend who is is from Berkeley), and Skip and me.

Have vixmom and vixter been on here and seen the invite, by the way?

I like the idea of a birthday party! What fun

Hello, everyone!

FJL · « **Reply #119 on:** May 02, 2008, 09:07:13 AM »

Jennifer - Thanks, and in your honor

, I'll (most likely) spend my birthday night watching the CBS lineup.

(We'd been thinking of trying to see Al Gore speak at radio city, but the ticket selection hasn't been great. So i think TV night it is; having my office party during the day is enough festivity for me at this newly advanced age.)
