On TV Tonight!™

CBS - GHOST WHISPERER, THE MENTALIST (rerun), NUMB3RS
NBC - DEAL OR NO DEAL, CRUSOE, LIPSTICK JUNGLE
ABC - reality shows, 20/20

About 5 minutes into the last episode of CRUSOE Keith said he didn't want to watch anymore.  I said ok & he deleted the series.


I felt that way after Episode 2!

We should have done it then.

BK - Yes, we're still planning an HHW get-together for the evening of Tuesday, December 2!!!

Haven't chosen a restaurant yet, but I've promised that it'll be someplace reasonable cost-wise.

Speaking of energy, I had better find some & take Sherlock for a walk.  I think I will stay in the neighborhood since I'm soooo sleepy, plus I have a haircut appointment later today.

Back from the long jog - a little more brisk than usual and shaved five minutes off the run time.

Now I must shower and then be on my way to morning meeting at Hugo's.  I have no idea what to expect, but I'll enjoy my poached eggs and English muffin.

Howdy, m'dears...

Long time, no chat. I have been laboriously (yup, I mean it) re-locating my cousin Tina from Winnemucca NV to assisted living in Tarzana. That accomplished a scant 2 weeks ago, I've been shlepping her to doctors and labs and more doctors - today we go back, yet again, for the promised RESULTS.

I have been 'IT' for this round... Tina's own brother has been - let's call it E & T - but completely absent for 11-count 'em-11-plus years... My own brother and sisters have had their share of tsuris - so Penny has been the caretaker/hauler/packer/mover/chiefcookandbottlewasher/Guardian Angel of this poor critter... Tina is the only daughter of my dad's brother, Uncle Morey - with whom BK's own dad owned a restaurant, back in the day - a fabulous old timey Steak House - the KiRu... anyway, Tina was born 3 months early, and is what we shall euphemistically refer to as 'developmentally disabled'... we're talkin' the IQ of a turnip. But at least she has a miserable temper. Oy.

Anyway, welcome back to haineshisway, little Pen...

Ran across this part of a blurb about a hard-to-find Manhattan restaurant (Convivo) and didn't know where else to post it:

"the pickled watermelon rind and crunchy fennel seeds that come with the testa, a pig’s-head terrine (the inevitable remark: “That’s good head”), and the pickled onions and thin slices of hard-boiled egg that come with the lingua, a rosary of veal tongues. (A minority opinion: “It needs more acid.”) The pastas, which are homemade, are distinct and astonishing. Taste aside, the textural refinement of the saffron gnocchetti, with flecks of crab and sea urchin, and of the tortelli—filled but not stuffed with ricotta and guanciale and floating in a Pecorino sauce"

     That's for those of you who might be wondering what BK might be eating while he's here in New York

And now...

I think I'm going to take a nice walk, maybe do some shopping... It seems that my whole musical/personal/professional life has just flashed in front of my proverbial eyes over the past 48 hours. Everything just seemed to connect.  Interesting, very interesting.
