BACHARACH ON THE BRAIN
« on: November 25, 2008, 09:19:59 PM »

Well, you've read the notes, the notes had a Bacharach vibe, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently waiting for trains and boats and planes to bring them home.  See what I mean?  I've got Bacharach on the brain.

Well, I still need to take care of a few things here, and try to get a few hours of sleep, so...

Goodnight.

Well, I must be off to bed myself.  Next week I start back at work, which means getting up and showered at 5 instead of lazing in bed until 8 or 9.  Ugh, it's gonna hurt.

Wednesday morning greetings!  It's the first day of my 6-day Thanksgiving weekend and I woke up at exactly the time I usually get up to go to work.  Wonder how long it will take me to get over that after I retire?

My agenda today includes baking pumpkin pies, cleaning up the house, and getting the tables ready for tomorrow.

Dining.  We're expecting anywhere from 13 to 17 for Thanksgiving dinner, which means 2 tables.

In any case...

I ended up not sleeping. Nor did I get as much organizing and decluttering as I would have liked to get done. And, yes, no, I did not find my keys either. But that's OK. There's always next week. ;)

However... I did find my checkbook. I did complete and email my invoices for the past two weeks. And I also read today's NYTimes online during the overnight hours. :)

Greetings on my first full day of vacation.

I'm heading out to Long Island later this morning (around 11am) and we will be there until Sunday afternoon, eating, seeing friends and relaxing.

I just got up so that must mean I'm really on vacation because it's a Wednesday and I would usually be up by 5:30-5:45. Hooray, it works! Vacation, that is.

So... I just got out of my seat - I had to throw out some trash anyway - and on the way to the trash receptacles, I took down two of the overhead "Quiet Car" signs. I then placed one on the table between the two businessmen who have been talking non-stop since we left Penn Station, and I placed the other one on the table in front of the three Italian tourists who have also been talking non-stop too... And on their cellphones too.

And now... Quiet. :)

I've done that before, so... And I was starting to get amused at my fellow passengers who kept wanting to do something, to say something but weren't.

Now I'm just wondering if my actions were a result of the concern for the common good of my fellow passengers, or my lack of sleep. ;)

DR JoseSPiano, I tried that trick once with French tourists and a "No Smoking" sign on a train in Spain.  [ the train in Spain stays mainly in the plain... ]

In any case, not only did the French tourists suddenly feign a lack of knowledge of English, they also suddenly did not recognize the universal symbol for "Do Not Smoke"...     :-\

Well... I'm wondering if Amtrak has signage in Italian? Or if I should just yell out, "Basta!"
