THE VAGARIES OF LIFE
« on: October 26, 2006, 12:30:42 AM »

Well, you've read the notes, the notes were swift and sure, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're dealing with the vagaries of life and cannot be bothered at this time.

I've finally finished catching up with yesterday's posts!  It took me about an hour and a half to read it all.  I was going to watch last night's episode of "Lost" afterwards, but now it's too late, so I'm going to bed.

We have a staff meeting at 9:30 in the morning.  It's not required, but I'd like to be there.  We'll see if I actually am able to get myself out of bed for the meeting.  

Good night...anyone. ;)

One man's fish is another man's poisson.
I do not like fish - and particularly not crustaceans (especially pink ones in a white sport Coat)

Well, I fell into some luck. I will be seeing Company next Wednesday, November 1st. A friend's friend can't use her ticket so I am the lucky recipient. It's in the rear mezz of the Barrymore but it's a TDF ticket so I can live with it.

I want to see the show because it's Company but I must admit I'm beginning to tire of the concept of stripped down musicals. Bobby sitting at the piano playing and singing Being Alive seems more like a cabaret show than Company. Oh, well. We shall see. At least I'm seeing the show. I had planned on seeing it anyway and now I'm confirmed.

I will be going to Midtown on Sunday to purchase two tickets for Mary Poppins on Sunday. Don't know which dates will be available but I'll check for the cheap seats on Saturday the 18th and maybe we can see it the same night as Dear Larry and Dear Fred (sounds like I'm writing a letter). I will also be getting a ticket to Grey Gardens. Even though the reviews for Butley were not outstanding, I still want to see the show so I will probably turn Sunday into a ticket purchasing day.

Back to work!

Guten Morgen to you, too, Ben! (And Lar!)

Sounds like you have some good theatrical adventures coming up.

Good morning., all!  Today, I have to go to Toyland and inventory some  scripts to be scanned.  Roadrunner email is dead this morning, and Amber on the service line says there's a problem with ALL passwords being rejected, so I am not alone, just screwed.

The rest of my day will be spent repairing major brain surgery on a number I put into score two weeks ago.  

DR FJL, Nov. 18 is fine with me!

A stripped down Bobby, sitting at the piano with nothing but a thong!  Gives the "Being Alive" number a whole new meaning, doesn't it!

I'm not much of a fish cooker.  Not that I have anything against fish, I just don't cook it very often.

There was one camping trip the family took, when I was a sprig/twig of a lad, up to Oregon.  My mother purchased a side of salmon, slathered it with butter and wrapped it in foil, and cooked it on a grill over an open campfire.  It was delish!

Oh my, oh my.  This is something Vixmom should check out, but possibly keep from the Vixter for a few years still.

It seems that a Brit company has had to remove a pole-dancing kit from their "Toys and Games" website, according to the Daily Mail.

Quote
Tesco last night denied the pole dancing kit was sexually oriented and said it was clearly marked for "adult use".

A spokesman added: "Pole dancing is an increasing exercise craze. This item is for people who want to improve their fitness and have fun at the same time."


Kinda gives the song "Being Alive" a whole new meaning, doesn't it!

J'adore le poisson, especially Salmon. I do like shrimp also. I don't cook shrimp. I order it when I eat out. I make a very simple salmon. I get a piece (big enough for two) at the supermarket and put a lemon pepper marinade on it. I let it set, prepare the fresh green beans and then bake the salmon for about 20 minutes (depending on the thickness of the cut) at 350. It is then plated with fresh green beans and wild rice (I LOVE wild rice). I sound almost like a chef. It's all a ploy. I actually only cook because I have to eat. I would be a terrible chef.

Most chefs aren't that hot as home cooks.
