Never mind, I found it and ordered it.

And, yes, I'm still here at my apartment...  I started cleaning and organizing some stuff... And then more stuff... And so on and so on... And now I think I may - and should - devote tomorrow to a very thorough cleaning and reorganizing day.  -As well as reconfiguring my bedroom since the the workers will need to have easy access to my radiator and the pipes sometime over the next few weeks.

*And it will be nice to start my 40s a bit less cluttered too.  ;)

Jose, I wrote extensively about the first Bacharach/Trijntje CD - it's one of the best albums of the last twenty years, with superb charts mostly by Pat Williams (who also produced), conducted by the great Vince Mendoza (who also did a few arrangements), and the orchestra is wonderful.  All recorded and mixed by Al "Schmitty" Schmidt.

Skip's already played his first of two shows today, and I haven't done a darned thing of any use to anybody.

I watched PSYCH while I cooked and ate lunch. Very fun episode even with one of the most obvious guilty people ever.

Shawn (James Roday) was looking particularly attractive in this week's episode. His hair was GREAT!

I watched the first episode of NCIS in the fifth season box set. OK wrap-up to a season long story arc with Tony romancing the daughter of a French terrorist. I was glad to see that come to an end.

I did have time to rewatch the episode and listen to Michael Weatherly's commentary. He had his mother with him in the sound booth, so the commentary had little to do with the episode. Instead, he asked his mother a bunch of questions about the things concerning the show that she liked and didn't like. Not the best commentary.

No more commentaries on the first disc, so I should be able to watch all of those episodes tonight and go on to disc 2.

Tonight on HBO-HD is I NOW PRONOUNCE YOU CHUCK AND LARRY. I've heard nothing but awful things about this film, but I have to see it for myself. I'll record tonight and maybe watch it tomorrow.

I gave blood this morning and although I have no side effects from it, I was told to eat well, drink well (non alcoholic) and don't do any heavy lifting....sounds like a good day to me!

I just spoke to Matthew, and I'm going to meet him in Times Square for HAMLET 2 tomorrow around 2:15.  He sounds healthy and well, and I told him that he had to keep me amused.

Tonight, I'm staying in and I think I'll watch MISS PETTIGREW LIVES FOR A DAY, which came in today's mail.
