Evening all!
My most sincere condolences to both DR SWW and DerBrucer. The loss of a beloved pet is never easy. You can take comfort in the fact that you gave shelter, comfort and love to a very special friend as well as having the courage to say “Farewell” when the time came.
Jose, I really enjoyed reading all of your piano stories. I confess I envy you very much. I have always wanted to play but we couldn’t afford a piano when I was growing up and as I have told DR Elmore, I learned am cursed with an ear for music. Play something for me once and I could play it back, by memory (as long as I remember it) or transpose it to what ever key and but I can’t read music to save my soul.
When I finely got a music teacher, I told her not to play the piece for me because I needed to make myself read/play what was written. She always played it for me and thought I picked up reading music easy. I gave myself away when I played something in the wrong key for her because I enjoyed it the way I was playing it and forgot to switch back for the lesson. I finely gave up.
I will be getting the
Babylon 5 movies this weekend. My
Babylon 5 collection should now be complete. Yay!
I don’t remember if I told ya’ll that I bought few DVD’s from Deep Discount DVD that arrived yesterday.
Ever After, the original
Father of the Bride with Spencer Tracy & Elizabeth Taylor. I tend to think of Joan Bennett as Elizabeth Collins from
Dark Shadows when I watch that movie. I also cry buckets every time. I keep thinking about my Dad. I also went ahead and bought the sequel,
Fathers Little Dividend and last but not least (I messed up a bit here)
DragonHeart: 2 Legendary Tales. I forgot I had already had the
Dragon Heart DVD. I knew I had the book.
My new contacts arrived in the mail today. I won’t start wearing the first pair until the first of the month but I can and can’t wait. Can because that puts Thelma closer to leaving but can’t because it will be so nice to be able to see the computer with out glasses. It’s horrible to be so blind.
It can lead to some funny moments, however. I was reminded of that as I picked up a pizza for dinner tonight. Some time ago the bus passed a fellow with a sign that read in large, large letters,
HOT and READY! Now, I knew it was an advertisement but forgive me if Pizza was not the first thought that popped in my head! I almost gave myself whiplash trying to look back to see that sign again.
I did, in fact, get to see it many times because it was an ad for the local Little Caesars pizza but I will always remember the shock of the first time.
It would appear that I was not the only person who had other thoughts about that sign because it soon changed to large letters that stated,
PIZZA, HOT & READY. Happy Birthday to your Dear Dad, George!
I also want to wish Gods Speed to DR Jane on her journey to see her son and to meet with fellow members of HHW. I hope you all have a wonderful time. I want plenty of pictures! I just hope you meet in something with a bit more light than a bat cave.
I’ve see the BB5 reference and wondered how
Babylon 5 fit into that—that’s what I thought it meant!
I want to know if I win the prize for guessing the ID of that picture from last night. You have to admit that I was right about it. Wasn’t I?
Good vibes to the cast/crew of
What If? for tonight!
