Good afternoon. Beautiful day here!

[Jane]

SHOULDER VIBES FOR DR JENNIFER!!!!

[Jane]

And I went to Costco and they hardly had any free snacks.

We went last week and it was the same at our Costco.  Sometimes there are lots of snacks but very few vegetarian ones.

[Jane]

But hey, you also get yer exercise by walking around the store.  Right?

[Jane]

And I went to Costco and they hardly had any free snacks.

That is one of my favorite parts about the place!

When I've hit the timing just right, I've been known to eat a whole "tasting" lunch for free by dropping into Costco, then Stew Leonard's.

I usually go to Costco on the weekends. But one time I went on a Monday or Tuesday. And shockingly there were like 12 different things to taste and they were all ready. It was heaven!

We always go on weekdays.  I find during the week each month that there aren't any Costco coupons there are also fewer food samples.

[Jane]

But hey, you also get yer exercise by walking around the store.  Right?

You actually do. The place is huge. And here you have to park far cause the place is always packed. So it's like going for a walk.

I was so disappointed by their book selection today. We only have 50% of the books in English. And there were so few new hardcovers there. I wish all new books would be there!

I didn't think you purchased many books from anywhere.  If the size of your hard book selection is the same as my Costco & half of those are in French that wouldn't leave too many choices. 

[Jane]

DR Jeanne congratulations on your eye check up results and finding a good optometrist with reasonable rates.

[Jane]

From DR Jeanne:

After my father died I had my Will prepared. It's not easy to think about, but I'm glad it's done.

Was that in California?  For different states we have been told we needed new wills.

Greetings DRS,
Anyone see Lincoln?  May see tonight.

[bk]

Very good movie.

[bk]

I shall shortly be on my way to The Federal for video and sound check and the show.

[Ginny]

Sunday afternoon greetings!  I am home from Newark, Ohio, and very glad to be here.  The 2013 AAUW state convention is history.

[John G.]

Break-a-leg vibes for BK and company.

[John G.]

Here's a half-hour of Angela Lansbury rehearsing for the "Prettybelle" recording.

Break-a-leg VIBES and XYLOS!

Good morning, all! It was too chilly this morning to make me want to leave my warm bed but I am now moving. I had to deal with several urgent emails and private messages and I will shortly leave for Toyland. I have things to accomplish there, and a heavy shopping bag of things to deliver to the office. If I leave now, I can grab a taxi and beat the morning traffic downtown.

DR Cillaliz, I'm sorry that a family breakup is causing you pain. Sometimes it's impossible to remain neutral, even if you'd like, because there are too many external forces mucking up the situation. Perhaps it'sbest to drop the friendship now and see where things lie a year after the mess is over.  With a child involved, the next 18 years will be a litany of child support, he said-she said, she did-he did, and other relationship nonsense.

I am realizing that part of my problem with the potential leading man I saw last week is that he's studying voice with my "best" friend who dropped me as a friend in January 2012 and it certainly colors the situation about wanting to work with him with this "friend" lurking behind the scenes. I'm not only bitter but I want to inflict emotional pain and leave deep scars.

And off to work!

I would hope that you would rethink that decision -  why burn bridges ?  Perhaps  things will change and you will be back together again-  it may never be the same relationship but you have such a long and shared  history  it would be a shame to drive the wedge deeper

[Jennifer]

Just got a call from Grant Geissman who is at the paperpback book show - apparently I'm supposed to be there, or was at eleven, to sign.  Oh, well, guess I didn't show up.  I try to tell people I must be reminded of these things especially when this show is booked eight months ago.

I agree a reminder for an event booked months ahead is a good idea, however, don't you have a calendar

I agree with both of those things. Obviously they should remind you that is crazy. But just write it down on a calendar (physical or electronic).

[Kate]

Thanks for the recommendation BK.  I will definitely try to view today or tomorrow.

I don't buy them I just want to look at them. Same as my bookstore. I like to see the selection!

There is one huge aisle of French and one huge aisle of English. But there are all kinds of books: cookbooks, kids books, paperbacks and hardcovers. There just were very few hardcovers.

[Jennifer]

My shoulder was feeling a bit better. I had used a heating pad. I was lying in bed with a special pillow relaxing it. Then I had to get out of bed. And ouch! I can't figure out how I can get out of bed so it won't hurt. Maybe if I roll over first.

[Jennifer]

My library just got the dvd of Lincoln so hopefully I will get to watch it this week!

[Jennifer]

I am supposed to go to the HOST this Tuesday. I've heard a lot of people say they love it. And a lot say they hate it. I read the book so long ago that it won't be fresh. So as long as the movie is good I probably won't remember every book detail.
