Good Afternoon!

-Well, it's already after noon here in New York City.  In any case...

I'm up, I'm up... And I've been up since the morning.  However, since putting my feet on the floor, I've been watching TV, working on some projects, and making some phone calls.  Not a bad day so far.

Just checking in-- I'll be back later.  I'm off to drive to DR Music Guy's house to take our beloved, shared dog/child, Sugar, for a walk.  Oh Joy!!!!!!!!!

Oh, Joy, indeed, DR Kerry!  And I hope that Sugar gives both of you wet, sloppy kisses, and vice versa.

???  I think you get my drift.

Yes, I think we do.  How long has it been since you've dated, DR Jose?

I don't know about favorite, but I laughed hard at the end of What's Up, Doc - the Love Story line.

That was the first thing that popped into my mind!

My coworkers have told me that they don't appreciate the arctic cold that I brought back from Wisconsin, but they love, love, love the Fannie May assorted chocolates that I also brought.

And the word of the day is: FLETCHER!
Fletcher is sound asleep on my bed, and if you're smart you'll leave him be or else he might come over and lay down on top of you!

He's such a cuddle-puppy!   :D

Good afternoon, all!  This morning I did yesterday's laundry,  secured my storage space at 107th and Columbus Avenue, set up an appointment with the movers to move a ton of crap to the space on Friday morning and ordered 2 4-drawer filing cabinets.  This afternoon I will stop at Bed Bath and Beyond to purchase a mattress cover to securely contain the mattress and seal in any bugs, stop at Staples for another round of storage boxes, head home and continue the discarding and sorting.

I keep telling myself it's all for the good, but today was another shelling out of $600! I hope some work comes in soon so keep those positive vibes heading in my direction! Please!!

I've decided I need to buy a new metal bed frame; I'm not sure I want to keep the old wooden one around. I had a captan's bed, since I needed more drawer space, and I will need a bed frame high enough off the ground to allow me to store tubs to hold my clothing under it.  So, any recommendations on what my new bedframe should be?

Will wonders ever cease...

Shirley Jones aka Mrs. Partridge will appear on a soap opera. I have not watched Days for well over a year but I did catch this on the boards and it is a picture in her costume as Colleen Brady...  

No clew what the story is about either....

If he could hear, one of Fletcher's favorite songs would be "Me and My Arrow," from The Point.

A cousin of mine who lives in Wiinnepeg says it got dwon to -30 and that is the temperature...

Re: subtle jokes in films -

Tagged onto the start of National Treasure: Book of Secrets was a Goofy short, How to Hook Up Your Home Theater.  It's new, but very much in the style of the classic Goofy "How To" films.

At one point, there's a quick shot of a mantle, with two framed pictures on it.  Der Brucer spotted the picture of Walt Disney - I'm the one who recognized the caracature next to it as a drawing of John Lassiter!  As if I wasn't laughing hard enough, that almost split my gut!

It has been 12 (count 'em 12) DAYS since TomovOz last posted.

Does anyone know why?

I know I'm usually not on-line at the same times he is, but we manage to cross paths at least a few times each week.

I'm missing him, I am.
