I'm up after a good night's sleep with some of the weirdest dreams ever.

I've mailed no response yet. I am doing it Friday when I've got my things out so I can ask what I should do about my keys.

I'm glad the apology came first. Do they owe you more money?

I'm sorry you have to go through this.

DR Druxy I'm very sorry your trip didn't happen.

"You and Me Against the World"

Very fond of Helen Reddy's rendition of this.

I also find Williams' own version very touching.

DR Ginny vibes to your aunt!

Thanks, DR Jane. I was pretty sure on Feb. 11, when I saw the condition of her home, that she would not live independently again.

This City is a mess today. I think St Patrick's Day in Manhattan is our Mardi Gras. My bus ride home took over an hour because traffic between 42nd St and 57th Street was at a complete standstill. The "Irish" (how many actually are Irish?) in colorful slly green costumes and hats - where do they find this getup? - are out in full force amd blocking the streets and intersections, and I suspect many of them are already looped. I believe some of them were looped at 10 am this morning. The No 7 bus was primarily empty all the way uptown, so I felt no guilt for taking up two seats with all of the scores for BABES IN TOYLAND, magazines from 1903 and 1904, and a few books. Tomorrow, I will go in, pick up as many books as I can, and put my name in all the ones there that I cannot take.

I have some duplicates of books that I needed at the office and home, like the Joseph Kaye and Edward Waters biographies of Victor Herbert, and I'll leave them there with some books I don't care about getting back, but I will put my name in everything. I may have to go back on Saturday morning for a few more, but I would like to clear out all that I want tomorrow.

I laughed at the new Borowitz Report and his comments on Michelle Bachmann's idiocy, This dumbass wants to be in politics?:

Well, to be fair, Bachmann isn't the only dumb ass in politics.

Any chance you could rebook the trip and arrive late this afternoon?

No. Sorry.

I'm done.

I guess everyone is out drinking green beer today.

In today's mail I got the first edits for 102 Victor Herbert songs.

Laura · « **Reply #42 on:** March 17, 2011, 02:25:30 PM »

So, what are you going to do with those edits? You're done on the Victor Herbert stuff, aren't you?

Laura · « **Reply #43 on:** March 17, 2011, 02:26:10 PM »

Help! I crawled into this bag to get a sunflower seed and I can't get out!!

I have to listen to them and give my yea or nay. The Herbert material is all recorded, but I have to deal with the edit and write a lot of notes.

I forced Craig to go buy jeans that fit. It is bad enough his jeans are too big, worse when he goes through security at the airport and has to take his belt off.

Yesterday I bought him two pairs of jeans, both the wrong size which really doesn't matter. Now he has to exchange them & get something he likes. I'm so clever.

Yogi is doing much better being left behind with us.

Jane · « **Reply #48 on:** March 17, 2011, 03:24:25 PM »

DR Laura did you get the bird out of the bag?

Laura · « **Reply #49 on:** March 17, 2011, 03:27:34 PM »

I did, Jane. And it was quite an adventure getting a panicky pigeon out of a plastic bag with a very small hole.

Nope, but we ate Jug-burgers - does that count?

Jane · « **Reply #52 on:** March 17, 2011, 03:57:11 PM »

I left the room for a few minutes and returned to find Yogi had eaten food Keith left on the counter. It is a good thing Yogi left the wrapper on the floor as I had no idea there was food on the counter. That was Keith's dinner.

I keep clinking on quote to comment on Laura's post and nothing happens.

I'm not nice because Laura's photo and comments made me laugh.

VINDICATION!! The jerk who wrote me an email attacking me about where on earth did I get the idea I posted on the listserv talked to the guy I said told me about the situation (I'm being intentionally vague to avoid searches) Anyway, he backed about 99% of what I said and even said he understood and respected what I was upset about 15 years ago. (yes this is all over something that happened 15 years ago). Of course the jerk focused on the 1% that we differed, but he's even wrong about that , lol. I feel vindicated

Seriously, if your pay goes from 50 per hour to 45 per hour how do you say it's not a pay cut. that's the gist of this whole discussion
