Or was that a figment of my imagination caused by the moon void?

All will soon be revealed so to speak.  -In the meantime, you may have to clear your cache.  -or just close and open your browser.

It is SO hot today, just brutal to walk around for any length of time. Ugh! Fall can't get here soon enough.

[Matt H.]

I continued watching GREY'S ANATOMY episodes. I'm up to #22 now.

Sandra Oh did a solo commentary on an episode about the little Amazon fish that swam up the man's penis. Ouch!

[Matt H.]

And got about halfway through the first hour of that two hour pilot episode for Kate Walsh's spin-off now titled PRIVATE PRACTICE. I think the series is just as ridiculous the second time around as I did when I first saw this. Of course, now that they've recast Merrin Dunghy with Audra McDonald and supposedly toned down some of the twee nature of the pilot, I will likely sample PRIVATE PRACTICE to see what changes/improvements they might have made.

[JoseSPiano]

Well... Time for me to head back into midtown...

Laters...

Good Afternoon!

Back from a brief stop-in at The Brain.  I dropped of some cookies for bk and his crew.  From Levain, of course.  -Now I'm just wondering if he actually shared them with anyone.  It was nice to see Alet for a few seconds, but since I'm heading back there in a bit to catch them at the end of rehearsal, I'm sure I'll see here again.  And for more than just a few seconds this time.

DR Jose, we all had cookies! Thank you so much fr bringing them.  

[Matt H.]

Well, I think I will head back down to see if I can't finsh up with the GREy'S ANATOMY set.

While waiting for the cable repairman today (my cable wire had been torn down by someone or something!), I was able to get the bedroom areas cleaned and a chapter in Harry Potter read, so I'm set to go with more viewing now.

If I finish GREY'S or if I need a break, I'll be watching the Blu-ray version of A NIGHT IN THE MUSEUM.

WBBL.

That's like asking a theatre queen if he owns any cast recordings.

Oh, I donno.

I was assigned to three months of physical therapy to recover from a broken sholder - after three weeks the therapist said -"That's all, you're well."

I must confess that I had secretly done whole lot of my own devised therapy while recuperating (much of it in a pool). I was not in a cast and the trick was to exercise the muscles without putting any strain on the bone.

Lunch break for the grant review team.  They have quite a task ahead of them:  8 applications totalling $69,532 in requests and only $38,293 available for allocation.  Can't wait for the scores to be tallied and to hear their deliberations.

I hope lunch was "a bit" cheaper.

Dem bones, dem bones
gonna rise again
Gotta get a lot more
Ex-er-cise again

DR Jose, we all had cookies! Thank you so much fr bringing them.  

Not I.

Somebody must've lost my cookies...!

[Ron Pulliam]

It was not until some time later that I got up to go inside to get a refill when I noticed it was a guy wearing shorts, a tank top with flowers along with the nylons and high heel shoes. I could not help but think: "Damn this guy has better looking legs than I do!"

LOL.

I've been in meetings in which a "butch" lesbian has seriously diminished the testosterone levels of each man present.

[DERBRUCER]

Well, I better hop in the shower now before the handyman returns this morning to finish up the work in the bathroom.

Good idea - one should be nicely scrubbed and naked for the handyman.

der Brucer

[Ron Pulliam]

Still no word on my car.

I left home for work via city bus at approximately 10:30 a.m.  I called the office when I got into the city and told them where I was and that I would be walking the rest of the way (about 30-35 minutes at a moderate pace).  Walking was far more time-considerate than doing "transfers" which would have taken about an hour, so circuitous is the trip.

A co-worker, instead, volunteered to pick me up.  

I got into the office at approxiamtely 11 a.m.  Went to lunch at 11:30 p.m.   Have "caught up" on outstanding work,  and the office has a staff meeting at 3 p.m.  

[DERBRUCER]

Hmm... Breaking news... A MAJOR Corruption Sting in New Jersey... Lots of public officials involved.

Corruption in New Jersey? SHOCKING!
WHODDA THUNK!

[DERBRUCER]

Wow...it has always been my opinion that drag should be done onstage in a spotlight - never outdoors in Grand Forks at high noon - or anywhere else for that matter.

You're assuming Drag Queen - it might have been a TG

[DERBRUCER]

Not I.

Somebody must've lost my cookies...!

Or...someone left your cookies out in the rain...

It's too hot here today, too.
I may be having a rehearsal tonight, it was tentatively set for later, but I just heard from a singing partner that she won't be coming; not sure if Matt is coming. . .so I may be back laters. (AH!  A Jose-Takes-the-Blame reference)!

Singdaw, if you're listening. . .I have some of what you requested.

Definitely a highlight of the third season.

Guess I'm not the only one tuning in for the CLOSER, and tuning out for SAVING GRACE.

I enjoyed the cooler temperatures today (90s) and went for a walk, and this is what I saw:

DR Laura - Beautiful photos, as always. Thanks for sharing

[elmore3003]

LOL.

I've been in meetings in which a "butch" lesbian has seriously diminished the testosterone levels of each man present.

I wonder if she once worked at the Drama Book Shop as a manager?

You've said that before.

I'm another.  After the pilot, Grace can save herself without me.

I'm feeling a little woozy right now, so I'm going home (and having a LOT of available sick leave makes it easy .  Have a good evening, all!  Hopefully, yours will be better than my afternoon.
