Dinner at Dan Tana's was amazing. The look on Melody's face when she tasted both Caesar salad and spaghetti carbonara was priceless - like it was the best food she'd ever had. She could only finish half but took the other half home. Her father and I finished it all and her mom had some excellent chicken dish. The carbonara wasn't nearly as cream-heavy as I remembered - it was certainly truly filling and I feel like I'm going to explode, but it was actually really light in terms of whatever cream was used. It actually felt like it had more butter, but even that was light.

whihc makes me think of John G's sister - Vibes that her millstone is no longer giving her trouble

Congrats on the milestone. And thanks for asking. Linda will have to go back to the doctor's on Monday to have the stint removed. She had to pass the large stone that they couldn't find as well as the one that they broke up into pieces. So, she will be facing some pain in the near future.

I gave Melody her present, which she absolutely went bonkers for: 14 things of OPI nail polish, in all kinds of cool colors - fourteen because she's fourteen. Also a pink case for her make-up and all that stuff (she loves anything pink) and some really good-smelling lotion and soap that she went ape for.

The last of the guests have left. I have enough steak leftover to feed another group of people, but all seemed to go well.

The supermoon tonight is gorgeous. Sat outside at the end of the evening and watched the fireflies do their sparkly dance across the backyard.

I could use a steak right now

I should wander out and try to see the moon before the storm gets here to block it.

John G. · « **Reply #157 on:** May 05, 2012, 08:39:07 PM »

I'd sent it to you, Cillaliz, if I could.

Starting to watch "Man on Wire" for the first time in a few years. Love this documentary. Plays on all my fear of heights beautifully.

The birthday girl tonight is a friend from church. She celebrated her 40th birthday last year while stationed in Afghanistan. She said they were attacked the day after her birthday. I think she's much happier to be at home and among friends.

I think that's it for me. Night, all.

TOD:

The first science fiction movie that I remember seeing was QUEEN OF OUTER SPACE which I watched with my cousins Molly and Bobby at their house one night when I was about 5 years old.

Hope you had a most enjoyable birthday, DR George, and with plenty of cake!

Spent the day watching Japanese movies from the 1950s/60s.

The one that I enjoyed the most was a musical comedy titled COSMETIC SALES COMPETITION (1963). Unfortunately the dvd freezes and stops at the 70 minute mark. I am hoping that I can get a replacement.

DR JMK, I have been putting into my Amazon.com wish list several of these instrumental compilation CDs that you have been mentioning.

we had a meal at the local diner with my brother and my folks unfortunately w were able to have as nice a conversation as we would have liked as shortly after we ordered a large extended family (about 20 people) was seated next to us and about 12 of those people were kids under the age of 6--- it was like sitting in the middle of a flock of geese- with my my parents hearing problems and my hearing loss conversation became just about impossible

How frustrating. There wasn't another table for you?

Good evening. You know it's not going to be a good day when Mike Bettes is on his tornado hunt just to the west of your town, lol. So far the storms have held off, but they are firing up in Nebraska so they aren't going to get here until after 1:00 AM. Oh joy

Safe vibes!!

REALLY beautiful photo. I didn't have a moment to look up tonight. Hope tomorrow night's clear.

George · « **Reply #176 on:** May 05, 2012, 11:17:21 PM »

Both of the moon photos are great! I can see the moon, but I don't have a good enough camera to take a picture that would turn out at all.

And....CAKE.

What movie do you plan to see on your special day, George?

Thanks, Iris! We saw "The Pirates! Band of Misfits" in 3D. It was a delightfully fun movie. Before the movie, Margo and I went to a restaurant called The Rock. Marsha joined us for the movie, after which Margo, Marsha and I went to a restaurant called Hop Jacks (I had one of their specialty burgers...I forget which). After that, we went to Baskin-Robbins, where Margo and I shared a mini (more than enough for two) cookie dough ice cream cake. It was all quite delish.
