Nice photo, DR Ginny--too bad you're not in it!

There are some others in the same scrapbook, DR KevinH, that I'm in.  I'll try to grab them - thanks for asking!

My niece (golf pro Laura) is coming over to visit with Gram and my sister and I are going out shopping/lunching.

Bye for now!

I'm really tired.  I was going to work today, but it isn't going to happen.  I think I did something to my ankle last night while working the book sale.   Anyway, I'm feeling a bit like I've been run over by a truck...not that I know what that really feels like, since I haven't in fact been run over by a truck, but at least what I imagine it feels like

I should run down to Jitters.  They are having the best cookie in Siouxland contest and the best dog cookie in Siouxland contest.  Homeless dogs are the judges for the best home made dog cookies.  It could be quite interesting

Methinks MBarnum and JR will probably be interested in some of the new MGM vault titles coming to WB Archives.

It's Saturday, and rather than sleeping in, I helped a friend at his booth at the Farmer's Market.  SO, now I'm going to take a nap.  Because I can.

Saturday morning greetings!  We're having some down time today.  Mom is still sleeping and I'm trying to be quiet.  This is the actual 50th wedding that we'll celebrate tomorrow.  On this day in 1962, my sister and her husband were married and I wore nylon stockings for the first time as their junior bridesmaid.  I know - TMI...

Not TMI, it is cute. :)  Wearing nylons for the first time was exciting.

AT the time it bothered me. But whatever. I'm trying to remember if i got anything equal. I don't think so which is probably why it bugged me. I think it wasn't so much that my sister got it. But rather that i had always loved it and then it was specifically given to someone else.









I got that is was about your grandmother, not your sister and that obviously your sister doesn't love it like you do.  It really sounds to me like your grandmother confused which one of you loved it.

Sherlock had a restless night, which means so did we.  All was better when we took him for a hike.  He was able to greet a few dogs, see a horse, and trot after a guy on his mountain bike.

We are taking each day one at a time.

Home for a bit between events.  Rehearsal for Grease was fun and went well.  Tonight is the official opening of Annie which is going fine.  Love the show and our cast and orchestra, but have been REALLY tired this week.  Usually, tech week doesn't get to me with the long hours and such, but this time, it nearly killed me.  So, tomorrow after the matinee, I plan to have dinner and crash.  Tonight, a few of my pals from the cast and I will head over to the Four Seasons for a drink and whatever the DP decides to put in front of us.  It'll be another late night.  Ah, the joys of the theatre!

Jury duty was rather uneventful.  The people officiating the room were quite funny in their prepared presentations, though.

And there was a movie which featured Diane Sawyer as part of the orientation..

The first day of jury duty, they gave us a 1-3/4 hour lunch break, so I was able to get together for lunch with a friend who works in the area.

Funniest shtick:  We were in a voir dire room about to be questioned by the lawyers and the court official came in and said something like (I'm paraphrasing)

It was a looooong day at Toyland, and now I'm home. I'm very happy to be here.

I got two ROBERTA scores finished and scanned and looked over the new parts being generated for DEAREST ENEMY. I have several options on how to proceed with them. Next week I'll deal with it.

The brilliant actor Lou Liberatore [Tony nominee for his amazing performance in BURN THIS] was also on jury duty. 

You could tell who the intense theater fans were, because when his name was announced in the general roll call, you could see some people quickly looking as he went into the jurors area.

Well, I left the house this morning without my camera. I borrowed my friend's camera but her batteries died before the really pooch floats came by. So, we watch some dogs then went and had champagne, a margarita, lunch and a few other niceties in the afternoon.

Here are a few pix I did get. The guy in the back in part of Rey Feo's Fiesta court. They all have to wear the uniform during Fiesta:

The parade was a benefit for a therapy program that takes animals to nursing homes, the home bound and the like. Anyone could parade with a pooch as long as they ponied up $20.
