I also have all the entries for our Siouxland Film Festival here.  I have to verify the times and figure out the total run time for each category before our meeting on Wednesday

I'm watching the repeat of Harry's Law.  I really like this show

Darn - I wish I'd known this was on!  Just caught the last 10 minutes or so.

We went from almost no entries to a decent amount with a couple stragglers after the deadline that we've decided to accept.  For various reasons the people who usually take care of ads, announcing entries are being accepted etc. didn't do it this year.  So it was a scramble at the last minute to pull it off.  But, it looks like we did.  So "Na, na, na ,na ,na" to those who tried to ruin our festival

Thanks for the link, DR Cillaliz.  The pilot got a scathing review in USA TODAY and Cincinnatians like to bash it for incongruities, but I like Kathy Bates, so I'll give it a try.

I ended up watching Monsieur Beaucaire, which has a really funny screenplay. I may watch one of the Road movies now.

I feel bad for the first two skaters, I'm sure this isn't the skate they wanted for the Nationals

We went to the movie today at the multiplex where Mom and I will see RISE, the figure skating movie, on Feb. 17.  I wanted to scope it out before trying to take her there and we decided that Richard will go along and see one of the other movies while we see RISE.

I really want to see Rise, but I'd have to drive to Omaha and I don't want to do that for an evening movie

To make this nothing day complete, I will make coffee, do dishes, and go to bed and read.

Morning all.

I know how you feel DR Laura.  I was up most of the night in spite of going to bed early.

I have twin problem with my sleep apnea.  Lately, if I don't use the humidifier, I've been waking up with a totally dry mouth/throat.  I can't even swallow. 

If I use the humidifier, my head gets to full of moisture and I have the Mother of all sinus headaches.  Not to mention my nose stuffs up and I can't use the machine. 

I had to sleep without it last night night so I kept having horrible dreams where I was drowning. It's funny because even in the dream I know it's because I'm not breathing but I can't wake myself up.  When I finely managed pull myself back to the real world,  I got up and sat in the living room from about 2 AM to around 5AM.  I turned the humidifier off and did finely fall asleep but now my head is completely stuffed. 

I guess I'm just going to have to get used to waking up with a dry mouth but I've read that isn't good for you.

I am so tired and I feel like a major grump right now.

I have a 1:30 appointment to go to H & R Block to get Ye Old Taxes taken care of.  I'm hoping that I will get a nice refund so I can get new tires for Bonny and pay off some of the smaller bills.  And maybe get a nice thing or two for me!


When I started using my machine, the humidifier was not an option. When I got my new machine, it was included, so I started using it. But I had to stop for the same reasons you said. I don't dry out as badly as you do, but I cannot sleep without the machine any more.

I really hope the problem clears up for you.

Back from a lovelier than lovely lunch with La Graae.  We'll be recording his new Jerry Herman club act live, probably at the end of March.
Sounds great.

Judging the wine competition was wonderful work. It ended at about 2:30. After that, some friends and I went walking in HemisFair Park beneath the Tower of the Americas. The temperature was in the mid-70s and everything was beautiful and felt like spring. We then sat outside and had a few beers (what most wine judges drink after a day of wine). Then we had a lovely dinner. And I'm exhausted.

"Einstein on the Beach" and "Nixon in China" are another couple of possibilities.

When I was going to Western Washington University, the music library (where I worked) had a record sale.  I bought several, including Einstein on the Beach, Satyagraha and Akhnaten.  My favorite of the three was Satyagraha. :)

I'm watching the repeat of Harry's Law.  I really like this show

Darn - I wish I'd known this was on!  Just caught the last 10 minutes or so.


It'll be on in a few minutes.  I set my DVR to record it, because I'm watching "A Dry White Season."  The CD arrived yesterday and the movie is on today.  What a coinkydink!
