DR elmore I continue to feel for both you and that dog. It is unfair for either of you.

We left Sherlock on his deck while we walked partway down our driveway & back checking out the cracks in it. Almost the entire time Sherlock whimpered and cried. I think he feared we were going to have fun without him. He was very excited on our return to the house & is now following Keith everywhere.

DR Jose, I have Carvel’s chocolate crunchies in the house but no ice cream.

Last night we went to friends for dinner and I was asked to make my sour cream cookies. I also baked oatmeal cookies with Heath toffee pieces. They were both a bit hit. Our neighbor is dating a chief and he made a shrimp & scallop curry. While I was not at all tempted to taste the shrimp & scallops I must say the dish looked beautiful. I had a perfectly cooked piece of halibut & my own little dish of curry with julienne snow peas. The curry was suburb.

What tribe?

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

I modified my post and taken the i out of chef.

I've been to church. I sang my share: "Because He Lives" and "The Day He Wore My Crown." I've walked Dixie Bell, who is now snoring contentedly next to the computer. My cousin took several portrait shots of me, which I have shared on Facebook. Dinner will be from Longhorn Steakhouse and Olive Garden shortly.

Once again, I wish every one a very happy Easter!

OK... Time for me to get ready to head out to the Easter Lunch/Dinner/Egg Hunt. -Apparently, the two daughters of the director colored about 100 eggs and hid them all over their house. I suspect hilarity will ensue.

Laters...

I certainly hope that Jose's hosts carefully counted and recounted the number of eggs the two daughters have hidden. I would hate to have one missing hard boiled egg remained unaccounted.

Hello! I'm here, I'm here. Never went far. Thank you, everyone for the warm welcomes yesterday. Read through the thread without posting so I can get a feel for what all goes on over here.

Had a lovely day yesterday, Saturday yoga always makes me want to sleep all afternoon. Instead of napping I went and got waxed which woke me right up (when going for TMI, go all the way...that's what I always say), finished my taxes (woohoo!), made delicious veggie pizza for dinner, and reorganized my knitting bag.

Re: Today's...column(? blog post? what are they called over here?), I love few things more than a good breakup story. I was married for a while, too, and it ended sooner but about as well as this one did. We still share an apartment because of the cats. They seem to understand.

I am very happy to learn the captain of the highjacked ship has been rescued from the pirates. I am also very very very tired and draggy today.

What have I accomplished today? The following:
1. I wrote a sketch for one of Ron Raines' numbers in the medley
2. I mended a tear in a blanket
3. I wrote some emails concerning John McGlinn's estate
4. I listened to Handel's MESSIAH
5. I tidied the apartment

I want a nap!

Elmore, did Mr. McGlinn remember me in his will?

Do you suppose any families eat hasenpfeffer for Easter Dinner?

Wouldn't that confuse the children?

td · « **Reply #69 on:** April 12, 2009, 12:53:22 PM »

Properly sated. Now I need a nap. And a massage.

Jane, exactly. I was able to be married for fourteen years because it was "nothing." Not good, but not bad - didn't fight, didn't scream, it just was a bore. I would have ended it years before I did had we fought or screamed or stuff like that. But, I don't regret it because it was the right thing to do until my daughter was of a certain age. Then it was full speed ahead.

Did the long jog. Had the script of the long musical printed. And I shall now read it as quickly as possible as I don't WANT to work today.

Good afternoon everyone.

I'm moving very slowly, not looking forward to laundry.

good afternoon td, the peep(s) show was bad.

I never wanted to be married, I was living with my to be husband and we had already been friends for 20 years, why mess with something good. Besides his father was already trying to fix him up with this nice Italian daughter of a friend of his (welcome to the family, bite me). But we got married, I was pregnant, he had motion picture health and welfare insurance, and his last name was more fun.

Sam · « **Reply #77 on:** April 12, 2009, 01:11:50 PM »

I'm still pissed he is no longer here. Not because he died, but because he was a stubborn Italian that was never going to listen to anyone tell him what to do. He did life his way, was always right, and that was that. You would have thought I figured that out in the the 20 years before marriage. I'm not that bright am I.

Sam · « **Reply #78 on:** April 12, 2009, 01:13:35 PM »

We did have fun, our lives were full, and the kid turned out to be one of a kind. Could not have done that without him.

I forgot, who always says "end of rant"?

Dear JR, loved the bunny cartoon.

I found it a bit too chilly to sit out on the porch while my lunch cooked. (It would be fine now, but I'm inside on the computer!)

Sam · « **Reply #82 on:** April 12, 2009, 01:27:23 PM »

Must go, must do laundry for work tomarrow.

Hope everyone has a sunny afternoon.

I watched The Ten Commandments on TV last night. There's something about the old big budget Hollywood movies that always makes me watch them. I'm not a fan of Charlton Heston's personal life.

Hi Matt H

While I ate lunch I watched Friday night's FLASHPOINT. This show usually has me ending up either in tears or close to it. Today was no exception. (COLD CASE used to have this same effect on me.) I like that even with these cops trying their hardest, things don't always work out with a happy ending for all concerned. Makes it seem much more realistic.

Hi back at 'cha!

I have THE TEN COMMANDMENTS on DVD, but I haven't taken it out to watch in a long time. I do enjoy it, but there always seems to be so many other things to watch (also shorter!)

Matt H. · « **Reply #87 on:** April 12, 2009, 01:31:48 PM »

Then I watched the extended version of SIN CITY. Honestly, I preferred the theatrical cut. The extended version allows the viewer to place the four segments in whatever order he wants, but I like the way the theaterical version arranged the stories, especially the hit man intro and coda and the splitting of Bruce Willis' story to bookend the other two complete stories since his story takes eight years to complete.

I then watched the one other bonus feature I hadn't gotten to yet, an interactive game based on the graphic novel using the remote like a game controller. After I got killed on the first caper, I stopped playing. I got the gist of what this bonus was all about.

Matt H. · « **Reply #89 on:** April 12, 2009, 01:34:21 PM »

To finish up my afternoon, I put THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS on Blu-ray back in the player. I still had about 40 minutes left, and since I needed to get upstairs and complete my review, I only watched about 20 minutes of it. I'll finish it when I go back down this evening.
