I'm up after almost eight hours of sleep with mighty peculiar dreams - not bad, but peculiar.

I have made my way to the National Concert Hall, a large and very beautiful building where we will record next week. It's about a 10-minute walk from the hotel. The walk takes me past St Stephen's Green, a large and really beautiful park.

On my way back, I purchased postcards and I can fill them out in the next couple of days and the hotel will post them.

I don't know if I have enough time to walk to the National Gallery now, but I would like to see it. I'd love to see Trinity College as well, but I understand the lines to see the few pages  from the BOOK OF KELLS on exhibit are enormous. Hmmm . . .

Yes, the lines to see the Book of Kells can be daunting but there is so much to see in Dublin that if you don't get to see the BOK you will have other sights to remember.

There is a great statue of Oscar Wilde on the northeast corner of St. Stephen's Green.

There is also a statue (fairly current) of Molly Malone on Grafton Street.

Good vibes and voayges for all-- wherever your voyage may take you today.  My voyage will take me a few blocks around the neighborhood with Sugar, and then I shall voyage to work.

Lovely photos from DR GINNY yesterday.

And I checked out DR JOSE's photos from his brother's wedding.....very nice.

Great shirt & tie!  I liked the painting on the window panes - the board arrows for directions.....the wedding colors.....everything looked so nice!!!  But, yes DR JOSE, you are correct....SOMEONE doesn't know how to cut a cake.

Monday morning greetings!  Today I'm expecting a phone call when the rehearsal dinner invitations are ready at the printer.  This evening I'm going to an AAUW prospective member gathering to try to lure some ladies into our Thursday evening book group.

DR Elmore - I'm enjoying your updates from Dublin!  You may remember that I bought Zola's The Ladies' Paradise (the one about the department store) at the Barnes & Noble near your home in NYC - let's read it together!

TOD:  Probably 24 hours...usually just fasting for a day.

BK, I know what you mean about the "well-oiled machine" and how that slickness seems to bring about a sameness to everything.  I feel that way about movies these days.  I can see trailers for the big summer blockbusters and whether the films are period, modern, or futuristic, they all look the same, ahve the same pat beats and set pieces.  Paint-by-the-numbers.

TOD - the longest stretch I can remember going without food was about 30 hours.  We'd had a nice dinner on a Friday evening and I woke up about 2am pretty sure I was in the early stages of childbirth.  No food until a couple of hours after DS Rob was born at 9pm Saturday evening.  An unintentional fast with a great reward at the end!

Probably a day when there was a lot of work.

Thanks DR GINNY - I look forward to a successful second week!  The audience members are very complimentary.

I think the last time I went a whole day without any food was probably a similar situation - work was so involving that i just didn't make time.

Good Morning!

I'm up, I'm up... And I'm coughing. I started coughing last night, and just thought it might be from some acid indigestion/reflux after indulging at the wedding reception, but... Now I think it might be allergies or the beginning of a cold since my ears are feeling a little "fuzzy" right now too. Anyhooo... I'm feeling fine otherwise.

Thank You, DR JRand.

-After Kristy and Jay cut the first piece of cake, they left the table and then one of the cater-waiters was left in charge to slice it up for the guests. He literally stabbed the top tier of the cake in the center and then drew it the side. No tall glass filled with hot water. No kitchen towel to wipe the knife off between slices. And then he kept on hacking away...

It still tasted good.

And, yes, that was when I knew (again) that I watched way too many episodes of "Martha Stewart Living". ::)

Besides the wedding, it's also been great spending time with my nieces and nephew. I've been particularly impressed watching John Michael take care of his little sister, Emily. He really does watch out for her even when he seems to be only paying attention to his video games or iPad touch. And Emily has also been quite happy and hug-gy this trip.

Here's the link to the trailer for my story BIG AL & DESPERATE DAN.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJ10Zyk1Dv0

It was adapted from my original screenplay, which served as the basis for DILLINGER AND CAPONE starring Martin Sheen and F. Murray Abraham.

 >:(

I was very unhappy with that movie, so this short story is my version.

The moral: If you sell a screenplay, always retain the publishing rights.

 ;)

I hope today's forecasted rain in NYC doesn't put a damper - literally or figuratively - on bk's web series shoot or demeanor. At least it finally supposed to clear up and dry out over the next 48 hours.

No, I am, or have, no camera. I did send a few postal cards out.

I just spent an hour in an Irish pub having a pint of Guinness with actor Karl Harpur who's planning a trip to LA with his fiancee. His cousin Colin Egglesfield, whom I saw last week on RIZZOLI AND ISLES, is doing well in LA and Karl wants to try out the LA scene soon. I think he will play on the recording one of our two sleazeball turncoats.
