Excellent brunch by Mr. JoseSPiano. And good times at karaoke last evening.

It seems to be blazing hot all over the USA. No different here.

With my sis from Berkeley, I  watched a brief program on the Weather Channel about what would happen if a big earthquake hit the Bay Area. Hopefully, she will prepare herself for this sort of emergency.

She and TPunk are now watching Intervention.

I want to pass this on. I found this very funny. I hope you will too


It would seem that someone within the "royal ranks" passed wind whilst on the balcony much to the amusement of all.

Notice HM the Queen's face in the first two photos, then look at her final _expression in picture three.

How guilty does HRH the Duke of Edinburgh look?

Well...  I have two full days of auditions to start my week off.  In fact, they're for the previously mentioned NYMF - New York Music Theatre Festival.  And since I've already had quite the full day today...

Goodnight.

Actualy, they are both house trained quite well.  I just got into one of those "moods" where if I'm cleaning this, I might as well clean that... and that... and that...

I wish I had that problem. ;)

On the Kitty front, since they seem to do paws and shrieks ablazing, I have decided to start putting Boo in her carrier and let her sit with me while I watch TV. While Callie does not seem amused, they can't hurt each other and may get used to being around each other.    Besides it's cooler down here for Boo

That sounds like a good plan Cilla.  I do hope all works out eventually.

I fell asleep on the float in the pool today and now the top of my thighs are sunburned.  Fortunately, I was on my back so I can still sit comfortably.

Lots of viewing tonight after I got the cleaning chores out of the way.

I finshed up with WHEN LADIES MEET. Some of it was predictable, and some of it was not and thus entertaining. I can see why Greer Garson gained a lot of fans from this film. She stood her philandering husband with all the dignity she could muster and walked out on him with the grandeur of a princess.

Herbert Marshall was a movie favorite of the time, but he's miscast in the film: too old for either Crawford or Garson.

I watched my copy of Deceit last night.  I want to watch the commentary track next.



It appears to be several million degrees  here at the moment and the humidity is 176%  


Wish we had air conditioning

Well, the pot-luck barbeque was quite the success.  A lot of food was eaten by everyone and everyone just sat and stood around talking.  I met a few people and spoke with a couple of very nice ladies, one whose name is Veronica.  I've never met a Veronica before.   Now I have. :)

Well I think I have to sign off because the computer and the fan are in different rooms and I have a strong need to be in the room with the fan at the moment

I watched THE ASSASSINATION OF RICHARD NIXON tonight. The story of Samuel Byck, given a Cliffs-notes treatment in ASSASSINS, is covered more fully in this, and what a sad, pathetic man he was. A very melancholy film.

Then came COLD CASE. I didn't think I had seen the show from the description I read on the cable guide, and about halfway through I remembered that I had seen this episode, but since other shows had already been on a half hour, I just cotinued watching it. A sad tale.

Finished up with GREY'S ANATOMY. There was some sniggering sexual situations (an erection that wouldn't go down) that I thought were beneath the maturity of the characters in the show (trying to sneak him in the hospital without bosses seeing anything - good lord!), but otherwise I enjoyed the episode. The story of the lady having quintuplets was riveting.

I brought cocktail smokies in a sauce made of two parts red current jelly and one part yellow mustard.  I know people who have made it with grape jelly, but I've only used red current jelly.  Anway, it was a big success.  I used two packages of smokies and a 12 ounce jar of jelly and 6 ounces of mustard.  I thought that it would be too much, but by the time I left, there were only six smokies left!  All the rest of them had been eaten! ;D They've always been popular at work pot-lucks, so I guess it makes sense that they'd be popular out in the real world, too. ;)
