Certainly the new book will have at least two photo sections, and I'll probably at the very least, copy one or two of the letters.

This woman might have been the kind of person to whip out a pistol and shoot at anyone trying to correct her.

Be careful.


If anything, she probably would have swiped me with her huge hand bag.


If she could lift it up.

Jose - She probably twittered to her friends about you.

Hee hee hee, DR Jose...

I hope you made it obvious to Ms. #42 that you were Twittering about her...  :D

Well...

As she told the Lincoln Center staff member who was handing out the optional(!) survey and advance email-notice cards, "I have a computer, but I don't use it."

Back from the tape transfer place.  A little disappointing in that one project's tapes were not what they were supposed to be, and another was useless, although I'll probably be getting that score from the composer himself, so that will probably happen at some point.  But two scores are now definite, I think, ultimately depending on their length, but I'm hoping we'll be fine with them.

All three of them.

And two of them probably stopped listening to her years ago anyway.

I see somewhat disappointing news about UGLY BETTY's ratings from last night. Although it was definitely better than its Friday night scores, it wasn't a major bump in ratings and didn't come close to matching the ratings for the other comedies which preceded it.

Perhaps people will need time to find the show or be reminded that it's now on Wednesday. But, unless it improves more than the 1 million additional viewers it gained last night, it's a goner by spring.

Now I guess I need to hop off-line and write up today's work project. Then I'll head back down to spend an evening with shows on the DVR. I haven't skimmed through today's soaps either, though I don't think my boys were on either of them.

Just smoothed out yesterday's writing, which I thought was pretty good, actually.  Then I wrote a little over a page, getting me into the next sequence.  I'm now in 1971 and by the time I finish this chapter I'll probably be over eighty pages into the book.  This could be a VERY long book, but I think that once I get past these initial important jobs, it will go much faster, as I'll just be doing the important stuff after this.

OH!

bk - Maybe you could make this forthcoming book an "interactive experience" like those Griffin & Sabine* books.  You could place reproductions of your actually letters in envelopes in the book!


*I really did - and still do - love that series.  Great art work, and a very mysterious and haunting story, correspondence.

I've read those too. But they are very confusing!

Well the fudge i made yesterday actually turned out quite well. I think it was the instructions. Someone had posted a recipe for maple fudge. But then some other people wrote comments (telling exactly how long to boil, and how to tell if it is done). Those comments really helped.

I wish i had a recipe for another kind of fudge i love. But i'm not sure of the exact name. I thought it was maple. But maybe it's what people call sugar fudge.

I think i am going to try to make a different kind of fudge tomorrow with the rest of my can of evaporated milk (since i don't want to waste it). Fudge can freeze. So i will either be making butterscotch fudge (since i have  a bag of butterscotch chips) or chocolate fudge (i have some milk chocolate).

OK...

I need to finish up some work here, and then head back down to Lincoln Center for tonight's New York City Ballet performance.

Back from a lunch at Hugo's.  Jammed at two-thirty.  I guess everyone is indeed not working and all taking lunch at Hugo's.  They tell me prime lunch now is from one-thirty to three-thirty.

Okay, I'm just going to say page four?  This will not do, oh, no, this will not do and I'd recommend getting off this page and getting a few pages beyond it or things could turn really ugly around these here parts.  And I say that in the nicest possible way.

Well, if they don't improve the story-telling, it's time "should" be up.

Whew, I am home.  I've been out in this crazy deep freeze 8 different times today and at this point feel like I've been hit bu a truck.  The wind is still near 40 mph. I realized how silly it was to tell everyone else they don't need to go to work and then have Edith and I go out into the mess. So, I brought home several cases I need to do research and writing on and have closed the office for tomorrow. I can work from here and with this insane weather it's just safer
