Watching the Macy's Parade today, I decided that I have no interest in ever seeing MATILDA.

Stephen Moyer did a fine job in THE GRAND season 1. Unfortunately, he was replaced in season 2.


I was surprised by the Rolf in the new TSOM.  He did not look seventeen going on eighteen.

I guess so.  I have never read the book (or series of books), but I didn't like the songs they did in the parade.

Hanging with the DD this afternoon.  He seems neglected, which I guess he is a little this week.  Heading over to my family's in a bit.  Bringing my accordion as my contribution to the dinner.  Later this eve, karaoke at a lovely dive gay bar - will be a perfect end to a great day.

I realize the new Sandy Bainum CD is still un-listened to.  I recently read the track list again, and just began to weep.  There are some of my favorite songs there, I guess I need to be in the mood.

I have been told the situation: NBC is showing the stuff live from Herald Square. CBS is presenting numbers on vide from other shows not in the parade.

I remember when CBS first started showing the parade.  I vaguely remember it being quite the ordeal for CBS to even be able to get the rights to broadcast the parade.  This morning, I recorded both broadcasts, but won't be able to watch them until tonight.  I also will make my own DVD of the show performances.  I've done that for the last several years (unless something went wrong with the DVRing...which has happened). :)

I was watching NBC too and didn't realize CBS would be showing different Broadway performances.  I would have loved to have seen Rebecca Luker!

And now, I must take a shower, get dressed and go to my parents' house for the day.

Until later!

Finished another two Downton Abbey episodes.  One thing they're doing right in season four is not letting any story lines get to the point where they become irritating - that happened several times in previous seasons.

Just back from the church dinner. Since we are having our family dinner tomorrow, I ate a little bit and then rolled up my sleeves and did the dishes. A couple hours' worth of dishes.

I think he said he was senior in college. So that would make him around 21?

Had a very nice lunch with friends. Sandy picked up a fried and a smoked turkey, which means I had barbecue today. Go figure.

It was all really good. I especially liked this sauteed vegetable medley with brussels sprouts, fingerling zucchini, cauliflower and baby carrots.

And my cherry cobbler came out better than I had expected. New recipe and not my style of cobbler (this one has dumplings at the center in with all the fruit), but the cherries were sweet and, well, cherry.

BestBuy has a 55-inch TV on sale for $500, but it's either sold out or the sale hasn't started yet. I can't buy it now. Bummer.

What a day, what a day.  I helped prepare a li'l group Thanksgiving dinner -- starting last night -- and twenty-four hours later it has been had, and has wound down.  And I don't know if I have ever eaten as much.  Certainly not as much stuff rich with butter and cream and sugar and bird and carbs and all manner of that kind of goodness.
