It's been rainy here, too.

Just not as smelly.

Off I go in my new running shoes... yes, Aunt Pen is training for the LA Marathon. Last Friday I covered 11 miles. And about 7 weeks to goI had been sitting with my sister Rikki on the couch watching TV - we saw an ad for coverage of the LA Marathon, March 4. I said to her,"I'm going to do my first marathon when I'm sixty." (I had just turned 58) She said, "Why wait?" So I started training the very next day. Feels pretty darn good.

There is a marathon in town this weekend. I despise it. The route is a figure eight, and we are inside one of the circles. It is just about impossible to get anywhere because of the road closures. I anticipate many people giving up trying to get to church because the streets are blocked.

Well, I've made it back to the office.  It's great to see everyone again, but I'm getting a little weary of retelling the story of my heart attack.  I should make a power point presentation and keep it repeat play on my laptop.

I'm not one to remember movie quotes either.

No DtM. They wouldn't have helped with "Dreamgirls". They're reading glasses.

I'm trying to recall which was the last filmed stage musical I really thought worked - "Chicago" came close. "The Producers" was OK but then for us it was a "nostalgic" appreciation too as we'd seen Lane and Broderick on Broadway.  Of musicals filmed for TV, "Gypsy" almost worked too. (Given my love for Midler.  LOL)

I'm fearful of a transfer of "Sweeney Todd" to the screen.  "Wicked" could be a good film.
"Follies" has I guess, missed it's opportunity.  It would have be an ideal filmed musical.

We watched "Bugsy Malone" the other night. Maybe it was because it was written as a Film musical - but for me it almost works. The songs certainly do.

I'd like to make her look a little more attractive, how far can you pull back?

How do you feel about Cleveland?

Got quite a lot of items watched today.

I began with SCRUBS from last week. Carla isn't wanting to leave the hospital, Dr. Cox is trying to mimic Gregory House, and the janitor (my favorite character for six years) is painting Elliott's new office with a mural that has him as a Rambo-like action figure holding JD's severed head. Hilarious.

Next was last night's COLD CASE, a very sad story of an overambitious prep school senior who snaps under the pressure and gets involved in a "fight club" with some overprivileged boys. Had tears in my eyes at the conclusion of this one.

Next, I noticed that APRIL IN PARIS laserdisc was still sitting out, so I put it in next. Hadn't seen it in awhile. For all of Day's bounciness and some cute tunes, the pairing of Day and Ray Bolger has to be one of the worst ideas in the history of movie musicals. He has zero sex appeal, and you just never buy them as a couple for a second.

But Doris does a melting rendition of "April in Paris" that is one of the best things she ever did.

I wrapped up the afternoon with last night's WITHOUT A TRACE. It was the story of a troubled, missing air traffic controller who right before he disappeared almost had two planes collide on a runway.

A very convoluted story of loss, blackmail, and murder, it was also very sad.

I still have 30 ROCK on the DVR, and I'll watch it in place of TWO AND A HALF MEN tonight since I don't care for that show.

NANNY McPHEE is recording on the DVR as I'm typing this. Looking forward to seeing it at some point in the next day or two.

Just thought of a stage musical that really worked (for me) as a filmed musical - Little Shop of Horrors.
