MERCURY IS OUT OF RETROGRADE

Well, you've read the notes, the notes were retro and got a good grade, and now it is time for you to post until the retrograde cows come home.

And here's my 20,000th Post...just from a few minutes ago. :)

Well, it's time for beddie-by, so let me end tonight on a palendromic number.

And Congrats, BK, on the sold-out-ness of the Bernstein CD!

DR JoseSPiano - I'm reading Kenny Shopsin's book/cookbook, Eat Me!, and am enjoying it a great deal.  :)   Thanks for alerting me to his existence!

Good morning, all! My colleague at the PHI office cancelled on me this morning, so I will putter about here for the next couple of hours - I have some Volume 2 writing on BABES - and walk down to visit my nutritionist around 11:15. Depending on whether my bank transfer occurs, I'll either run to the NYPL or to the pharmacy for some med refills.

Congrats, George, on your milestone. 

If 20 blocks is a mile in most cities, isn't  20,000 a true milestone?

Wednesday morning greetings!  I've been in the office for just an hour and am leaving now for a luncheon event.  When that's over, so is my workday, so I'll be back to visit with y'all later this afternoon.

For some reason, my computer is only partially loading the bk notes. I'll have to go back later to try to read them all.

Good morning!

A night of very upsetting dreams didn't bring about restful sleep. Perhaps tonight will be better. It's another cool morning leading to a very warm afternoon. Overall, looks like a gorgeous day.

After I cleaned the den this morning, I sat down and finished the rest of the bonus features on SLEEPING BEAUTY. The game where Maleficent's orb asks a series of questions and can guess what you're thinking is lots of fun. It certainly guessed what I was thinking the first time I tried. If I had had more time, I would have tried again.

On TV Tonight!

Due to the debate, only an hour of prime time is given over to entertainment programming.

CBS - comedies
ABC - PUSHING DAISIES
NBC - KNIGHT RIDER
FOX - baseball

Good Morning!

I'm up, I'm up... And I'm guessing that Mercury might have sneaked back in to retrograde this morning since I could only read the first part of the Notes too.  ???

Today I'll watch the NCIS episode from yesterday as I cook and eat lunch. I also have last night's THE MENTALIST and THE SHIELD to watch at some point today (probably tonight). I may record PUSHING DAISIES and watch it tonight. I quit the show in the middle of its shortened season last year, but I may revisit it tonight if I get my work done.

I'll spend most of the afternoon watching the second disc of bonus features on Criterion's release of MISSING. Looking forward to those.

My Mom was already up and talking at the hospital this morning... :)

I was going to go over this morning, but her nurse suggested that only one of us head over this morning so that my Mom doesn't have too many things or people to concentrate on.  I'm a little bummed, but they also said that it looks like they will be moving her to her regular recovery room tonight(!), so I'll see her then.  :)

*However, I woke up today "feeling my sinuses", so, I was already feeling a little apprehensive about heading to the hospital as soon as I got out of bed.  In the meantime, I'm having a very leisurely breakfast - oatmeal, yogurt, green tea - and I'm taking care of a couple of emails and phone calls.  -And I'm surfing the net as well.  ;)

So...

Anderson Cooper doesn't really go to concerts, but he has recently been to concerts by Prince and The Scissor Sisters...  Hmmm...

BK, i wonder if you could put some type of note up on the old board telling people where the new board is. I'd hate for occasional readers not to know where to go.
