Help me understand something:

A couple of years back, when Peter Jackson was not only producing "The Hobbit" but was taking over the reins as director, the plan was for two films to be made from the one book.

Now I'm given to understand there are THREE films from this one book?  THREE?  Seriously?



How ones gets 3 movies from The Hobbit I don't know.

Tonight I take the last Doxycycline, thank the Ye Gods.  Has it really been 30 days?  Seems like 30 weeks.  Tomorrow, dairy products.  Just because I can.

:)  Thirty days was a long time.

What a day!  As mentioned in the notes, I've been having a devil of a time falling asleep before three, and that was certainly the case last night, once again.  Once asleep, however I slept until the phone rang - and that was 11:50.  I couldn't believe it.  I had to to meet dear reader Jeanne at 12:30.  I was out of the house in eight minutes flat, but then had to fill the motor car up with gas.  Timing was on my side going to Beverly Glen - got there very fast, but was behind slow drivers until the road splits into two lanes.  Then I zoomed past Mulholland and was zooming along when an Acura turned right and got in front of me - that they had to do very quickly.  After that, however, they were going about fifteen miles an hour all the way down, past Sunset towards Wilshire at which point I finally got around the fool.  Then I zoomed all the way down to Olympic, turned right, turned left, zoomed down to Pico and got to the restaurant to find no street parking in front, so I had to park a block away.  With ALL of that, I was only five minutes late - pretty good!

5 minutes late, not bad at all.

I wonder, yes, I do, what DR Jeanne had to eat for lunch with BK.

The rains have come to the City of Studio - I counted twelve drops so far.  Heavy, baby.

I was never late while traveling in Los Angeles. I would always leave 2 hours ahead of time. Would often arrive a few minutes early, even.

Next time I am renting a car with a GPS.

Home.  Good day in the classroom.  Some fun moments.  I'm off to A Christmas Carol - The Musical tonight, and to quote dr Elmore, we'll see what kind of fresh hell I'll encounter.

I haven't had fettucine alfredo in years.  It sounds good.  When we lived in Pennsylvania we ate at an Alfredo's restaurant, Alfredo as in fettucine.  Oh my was it delicious there.

I've been talking, in a private group, on Facebook with a friend who is beginning chemo tomorrow.
I hope her surgery really got it all cuz the odds the chemo will work are not very good.  Sigh.

Some days living in NYC is so neat: I got out of a taxi at 81st Street  & Broadway and held the door for Phyllis Newman and her nurse/companion to get in. It was nice to see her. She said she couldn't take my hand since she'd just done her nails. Jungle Red, I believe!

BK, re: not being able to fall asleep. What happens if you make yourself wake up at 7 or 8am. Won't you be very tired and want to get to sleep early?

I've been getting rejected a lot lately for some ebooks I really want. But I had a good feeling about this one since I was accepted for CATCH ME.

I don't go to the movies very often. i don't really enjoy sitting in a seat for 2+ hours.

But yesterday I went to see Breaking Dawn part 2. And I was looking forward to seeing some of the previews. I did see one for a movie that looks funny with Billy Crystal and Bette Midler as the grandparents.

I also saw the one for Les Miserables. It's interesting that the preview is all in song.

I also saw one I was very excited to see, The Host. That book was so good, and also by Stephenie Meyer (Twilight Saga). One preview I really wanted to see but which wasn't shown was for another book to movie adaptation (Beautiful Creatures). I still need to read that book. But met the authors when they came here in September.
