I am so tired from running around in the snow today. I wonder if i will even make it up till midnight!

[Cillaliz]

I did buy a nice t-bone steak and some shrimp.  I will make a very nice dinner for the new year.

So you get the steak and the girls get the shrimp?

The girls don't like steak or shrimp.. They had their treats and Dick Van Patten's Natural Balance turkey and giblets.  they are both curled up sleeping. Boo, on my lap under a blanket, and Callie on a blanket on the floor

Is anyone else gonna watch Anderson cooper and Kathy Griffin on CNN?  They were so funny last time i watched.

I'll have to record it, but I loved watching them together last year.

[Matthew]

I've been sitting around the house all morning singing (if one could call it that) the entire OCR of A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC to myself without the benifit of playing the actual recording.  It's amazing that I know that thing inside and out the way I do.

Now where was I?  Where was I? Oh, yes!...

There was a time when I could do just the same thing.  -And there was even a time when I could basically play and sing the whole score to Sunday in the Park with George from memory, by "heart".  -And that included all the various parts/lines in "Putting It Together".  Today... Well... Not so much. I'm lucky if I can remember the opening measures of each song in those scores.

For me, it was the original Broadway version of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor^© Dreamcoat.  Weird, huh?

I actually performed the entire score to "Joseph" by memory with my guitar for my classes as we were talking about biblical stories and musicals.  No rehearsal... just did it.  Very scary

I had a feeling that FINIAN'S was not going to have a long run, but I am still utterly disappointed in its closing notice, and I send love and regrets to DR Elmore.

But how can that gosh-awful BYE BYE BIRDIE still be going strong, while FINNIAN'S RAINBOW (with great reviews) is closing?

Just a little bit of star quality!

Very little.

Well, it's time for me to leave work and to go dinner with the family.  Our reservations are at 6:00 and afterward, we'll go to my sister's for dessert...then, I'm going home.  So, I won't be out for too long.  I do have to stop at home first to set my DVR to record "The Kathy and Andy Show."

Happy New Year to anyone on the east coast if I'm not back by 9:00 pm, west coast time!!

[DAW]

Good night my lovelies, and wishing all of you every good thing in the coming new year!

[Cillaliz]

Right now it's 8 degrees with a wind chill of -5.  I'm very glad I didn't go out tonight

[Jane]

Count me in as one who will start exercising again as of the new year.

I was biking every day for around a4 months. Then i got sick, and had no energy. So i have not done regular exercise in more than a month.

The weird part is that i feel like i've maybe lost weight since i stopped exercising. It doesn't make sense. Although i guess walking around the mall a lot could count as exercise.

if you didn't gain fat & lost muscle you would weigh less.

Maybe. It's just funny that when i was not trying to lose weight i lost more than when i was exercising so hard!

I want to start exercising again every day. I just don't know what to do. I'm not that crazy about doing it indoors. Although i have an exercise bike and a rebounder.

I could go swimming once a week. I just hate that i will have to wait at least 4 months to bike again.

it probably helped you were exercing and watching what you ater before you got sick.

i know what you mean about exercising, it is especially difficult for me to get out in the cold wet weather we are having.  no one wants to go with me & i won't go alone.

[Ginny]

Surprise - I'm back!  We saw Sherlock Holmes and I had a nice little nap in the middle of it.  Not really my kind of movie.  We ordered way too much food from Middletown's new Chinese restaurant and had a wonderful feast here at home.  This place opened not long ago and we've agreed that we need to patronize it often.  Now, I'm watching Live from Lincoln Center, Richard is watching a Midsommer Murder on his computer, and Rob and Mary Linda are watching Pride & Prejudice in the family room.  Aren't we a scintillating bunch?

[Ginny]

DR Jane - I'm glad to hear your good report from your surgeon!

[Jane]

ron, VIBES ALL OF YOUR MAIL IS FOUND!!!

i agree with jennifer, if possible try to stay calm about it until the regular mail person has a chance to look for you.  i have found the regular mail person often knows where missing items are.

[Jane]

thank you ginny.  i'm glad you enjoyed your nap, i personally hope not to sleep through it.

And now the partay begins.  I purposely ate a very light meal - bacon, eggs, toast, and tomatoes, so I could have a couple of Cherry Ripes in celebration.

[bk]

So, what foodstuffs is everyone eating, what will you be drinking, what are you wearing - you know, we need our visual aids.

[bk]

Welcome five GUESTS.  Our partay is beginning.  Make your New Year's resolution to join our merry troupe.

[bk]

And just because I really think it needs to be said: Cranberries.

[bk]

I am my own frenzy.

[bk]

I am my own partay.

[Jane]

yesterday keith read an article on the benefits of eating chocolate to help pain.  today i ate 3 pieces of chocolate, it helped briefly.  now i'm going to use ice packs. chocolate is more fun except i have to be careful not to eat too much chocolate in a day.

[bk]

Cranberries.  Chocolate covered.

[bk]

I also have some dark chocolate Hershey with almonds here.

[bk]

I also have some low fat, low cal ice cream.

[Jennifer]

Welcome five GUESTS.  Our partay is beginning.  Make your New Year's resolution to join our merry troupe.

How dumb am I?  You keep mentioning a "partay" and i kept thinking you were going to a party.

[bk]

Also, isn't it fun we just finished the first ten years of the aughts?

[bk]

And yes, I don't care what pundits say what, the aughts began on January 1, 2000.

[bk]

Listening to music and trying to figure out exactly what I should watch this fine evening.  I don't know that there's anything that's particularly calling to me - I just know it will either be a Blu-Ray (I still have a few I haven't run, like The Princess Bride, but I saw that movie recently and am not quite ready to revisit it), or something on the DVR.

[bk]

Where are our partay people?  What we don't want are partay poopers.

[Jane]

lol jennifer.

i can no longer eat hershy's chocolate, which is ok.
