I may even brush my teeth

Don't do anything rash on our account.

It's raining again. Guess I took my window of opportunity and ran with it.

Listening to wonderful music - I can't say what, since it's the February Kritzerland release.

What a festive afternoon it was at the Library! My family was there the entire time and there was a steady stream of in-house and external guests for the 2 hours. The food was plentiful and delicious and the desserts were exquisite. When I'm not so tired I'll post some photos.

The newly-appointed Grants Specialist is a very quick study and we are getting along quite well. A week together should be plenty of time and she'll probably be glad to be on her own after Friday. She was able to meet a lot of grantseekers and grantmakers this afternoon and will meet some more nonprofit folks Wednesday when we have a holiday luncheon with the volunteer administrators.

Looking forward to the photos, DR GINNY!

Funny episode of BIG BANG THEORY.

Is the Jonathon Groff listed as a producer the same Jonathon Groff from SPRING AWAKENING? Don't see how it's possible.....spelling must be different.....

and I think this is Ginny's last day as a productive member of the American Work Force so congratulations Ginny on a well earned retirement!!

Thank you, DR Vixmom. Although the par-tay was today, I still have 4 more days to be in the building. How productive they are remains to be seen.

Take care - it was good to see that you were here earlier!

Driving to and from work was precarious...I hated it! The roads are nothing but sheets of ice....I found only one road that had been sanded, none of the others even though they are all main roads into and out of downtown.

The fastest I drove today was 20 miles an hour.

DR Ginny, an entire day of wonderful news!

Ginny · « **Reply #191 on:** December 15, 2008, 06:01:00 PM »

Yes, DR Jane, it was a very good day!

DR Ginny you are going out in style

Think I'll have an English muffin and finish this not too good Mod Squad episode. Then I'll have to decide the movie o' the evening.

MBarnum, I was very afraid that I would have to drive in the snow in Maine. Luckily, the day of the doctor appointment was just rainy, not icy. I have never driven in snow.

Four orders. An all-time low for this here site - lower than Laurette and lower than A Christmas Carol by the same composer. Happily, I don't have to worry about it, as my biggest online dealer just upped his order by 100. At the end of the day I'll probably only have 200 to sell by the time it's announced.

I got my order in.

Is DR Ann going to share the health cookie recipe with us??

I got back from Oxford to find Randy and Jo both trying to get her computer in working order. About two hours ago, Randy and I made a trip to Office Depot for a new wireless adaptor and now Jo is back online and here I am.

I had a great day with the theatre students: lunch went from noon to 3:15, with much dish and Q&A, and I think it was a successful day of being the "guest artist," as the director of theatre called me. Tomorrow, depending on the impending snowfall, I will drive back to Miami, visit the library, see what's going on with the collection, and have lunch with the head of Special Collections and the chair of the theatre dept.

I think I'm coming down with a cold.

I agree with DR Ron Pulliam about the last version of LITTLE WOMEN. I grew up watching the 1940s version, but I find the Hepburn version awful because Spring Byington as Marmee is insufferable and coy. If you can find the BBC miniseries, it's funny because every actor has a different American dialect. The actress playing Hannah, as I recall, sounds as though her New England dialect came straight from Atlanta. I mean, it is the Civil War, n'est-ce pas?

I remember the first time I drove in the snow. It was pretty scary. You know what, it still is. In fact, the more I have done it the more I know how lucky I have been at times.

I am about 30 minutes (and four commercial break blocks) into 20/20, and it's a pretty good show so far. The kids are interesting and the administrators are not cliches.....

If you are interested in the subject....I think you might like it.

I know I set my DVR to record this, but I hope I also set my DVR to record the NBC shows (I can't remember now $:-\$ ) because I'm leaving now to go to my sister's instead of home. I'll help decorate their tree and socialize a bit, but I don't know when I'll be home. Hopefully, they watch "Chuck" and we can all watch it together!

I'm off...until later!

Ugh! I don't really want to drive to work in the snow tomorrow.

'night!

Good Evening!

-And that's about it for this post.

I think after 20/20, I will dig out my VHS copy of THE TWISTED NERVE.

Georgie likes ducks!

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #206 on:** December 15, 2008, 06:56:37 PM »

I would be watching the "20/20" show tonight, but since our DVR is currently taping two other shows right now - "Heroes" and "Prison Break" - well... I'll catch the clips on ABC's website. Although, since I know the school involved and some of the faculty, well...

And "non-traditional" casting for The Wiz and Once On This Island are nothing new. In fact, the authors of Once On This Island came up with a non-ethnic specific version of the show which works very well.

Very very cold weather predicted for tonight.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #208 on:** December 15, 2008, 06:57:55 PM »

One hour in and the staff is about to announce its casting decisions.
