I just read THE LITTLE PRINCE.  I think it was just as sweet as the first time I read it, about 30 years ago.

I am super excited. My library got Season 1 of Major Crimes. I wasn't sure that they would buy it since they don't have the Closer. But whoever ordered it probably only saw that it was season 1 and maybe didn't realize it was a spin-off series. Either way I cannot wait to see these characters again.

Enjoy!  I hope they get the rest of the series for you.

The second season has not come out yet on dvd.

My wifi and my Nook don't always connect as they should.  Browsing my library wish list on my computer I saw a book I wanted was available.  It took me 15 minutes to finally get to the book using my Nook and by then someone had checked it out.

Why can't you get it from your computer?  It would make sense that you could do it either on your nook or computer (the same way you can buy an e-book). :(

I also got the weather stripping redone on the front door.  Man, does that make a difference.  Didn't get the plastic up on the last couple windows, but tomorrow is still supposed to be good weather so I'm hoping I can leave work early enough to do it


Tomorrow evening, during the Seattle Seahawks game, the Artic blast is supposed to arrive in Western Washington.  Supposedly, we will then be below freezing day and night for the next week.

I have never had a turkey and bacon sandwich with leftovers - our favorite sandwich is turkey, cold stuffing, cranberry sauce and some cold gravy smeared both pieces of bread instead of mayo- best on whole multigrain bread (or toast)

Can I have it without the cranberry?

Broken legs to Bruce's cast and to TCB!


Last night was redemption, but this afternoon, I hit it out of the park!!  The whole show was near perfection.

That's wonderful news. I wish there were some way to see it. Do they sell barbecue anywhere near the theater? :)

I don't think so.  And I doubt you would enjoy Washington BBQ.

He could use it as a comparison in the book.   "This place doesn't belong in Texas...it tasted like Washington BBQ"

The plaintiff in this case is a friend of mine.  I'm going to try to watch some of the trial.  It will be interesting

DR George, I have no memory of an intermission at the first showings of GREASE in the 1970s. CAMELOT and FINIAN'S RAINBOW, I remember.

Well, the movie version (which is what was showing) did not have an intermission.  We only had to sell during the pre-show, so it wasn't a madhouse, but it was packed!  I didn't find out the final count, but it was pretty close to full (the theater seats 988)!

People were dressed up and really got into it.  There was a costume contest before the movie started, but concessions went on for about 15 minutes into the start of the movie, so I couldn't see any of that.  The projected lyrics were pretty cool.  They were all animated and not just block letters like closed captioning.  Most of the songs were sung by the audience and a lot of the songs had applause after them.

And it was great seeing the movie on the big screen.  It was made in the 70s, so movie making techniques and styles were (of course) very different than movies today.  It was so much fun to watch the dancing sequences with whole bodies shown, and not just close-ups of their faces.  They had long shots (some felt as long as 30 seconds) during the dances and you knew that they really were dancing.  I love that!

I didn't see the "Sing-Along Sound of Music" last year, but a couple of the ushers who were there said that it might not have been as full as this was tonight.  It was quite the successful event and as people left, you could tell that they all loved it. ;D
