Watching a motion picture I've only seen snippets of - The Piano.  It's very - arty and I could live without the vomit scene the occurs but five minutes into the film.  I do like the actors very much and had no idea a child Anna Paquin was in this.


Oscar winning performance.

I saw it when it came out, but don't remember much about The Piano.  Maybe I should give it a try again.

I can't stop thinking of DR Danise.  The neighbor's tree fell on her house and her car.  She and the dogs are fine but it isn't safe for her to go inside. :(

MEGA VIBES FOR DR DANISE!!!!!

:(

Thanks for telling us what we were sending vibes for.

Yeah, I was wondering what was up. 

This is beyond belief.

Vixmom, can we assume you've got a good second wind and are planning to pull an all-nighter before heading off to work in the morning?

God bless her, she did it, and without complaint.


Was there ever any doubt?  Look at the incredible parents that she was raised by.

I'm sorry I didn't say the reason for the vibes, DR Jennifer, but I didn't think it was my place to tell all the details of Danise's problems.  But I still thought she needed the vibes.

That was movie making - the story was told without showing any gore - all violence took place just out side of the camera's eye - and I was on the edge of my seat the whole time

much preferred it to ANYTHING  Quentin Tarratino has ever directed

I much prefer HUSH HUSH SWEET CHARLOTTE!

And now I can just relax and play on the computer until I post the notes - I may, in fact, schedule them and try to go to bed early, but maybe not.

 I  see she posted some pictures on FB  from her phone- it looks pretty bad -  that poor woman first the evil contractor who destroyed her home and now she is finally back in her house with a new kitchen and THIS happens!

 


I wish there was some way to tell Anderson Cooper what happened.

Entertaining, as far as people watching goes!  Other than that, pretty damn boring.

Just trying to figure out an upcoming release - it's clear I'll have to watch the film to see what the previous CD release did - I can hear they've edited cues together in ways I'm not crazy about and, I think, even taking some of them out of order.  Thankfully it's all very clear on the cue sheet and watching the film should make it crystal clear.  If I can only find the damn DVD.

Anyway, my friend Margo and I are meeting for dinner first, and then we're going to see Elizabeth talk about her "Swimsuit Area"...yup, it's about that.  It's frakking hot here and hopefully the theater won't be horrible, but it probably will be.  I'm bringing a fan.

Well, I forgot to bring a fan, but the program worked as a fan, for the most part.  Anyway, the show ("The Swimsuit Area") was fantastic.  Elizabeth is a wonderful writer and story-teller.  The show was about her realizing at a young age that she didn't want to have kids.  And then she realized that she couldn't have kids.  And she loved that she didn't have to worry about using birth control.  And then she realized that she was pregnant and had a decision to make.  She made the decision to end the pregnancy (by legal means).  And then she found out that she had a lot of large fibroid tumors on her uterus and she didn't have medical insurance, so she "fake" domestic partnered (but for real) with her roommate and officially was able to get on her health plan to get surgery.  Then marriage equality happened and her "fake" (but legally real) domestic partnership would automatically become a real marriage.  Her "partner"/roommate then wanted to get real married to her boyfriend and wanted Elizabeth to officiate*, so Elizabeth went online and became a real minister in the Universal Life Church and officiate her former "fake" domestic partner's real marriage. 

Anyway, it was very good, and there were a lot of side stories.  The house was almost full (it only holds 42 people).  It was quite warm and we all survived.  The show was less than two hours with the intermission.  That really helped with the heat.  I am very glad that I got to see this show. :D

*During the show, Elizabeth never mentioned about dissolving their "fake" domestic partnership, but I assumed that they did that so that it wouldn't automatically turn into a real marriage and that her roommate could get real married.

Six scum-sucking spambots attempting to register - oh, well, scum-sucking spambots - may you explode and may your makers do the same.  Happily, they don't seem to be able to answer three very simple questions.
