DR elmore how is your leg healing?  Does it hurt less than that first night after you cut it?

We should lookup Dick Gautier's Facebook page and see if he posted about meeting Bruce Kimmel at lunch today.

Tonight on ME Tv at 11:30 p.m. EST, one of the Perry Mason episodes featuring Miss Allison Hayes is on....The Case of the Captain's Coins.

She doesn't have much to do in this one, but she slinks around in a couple of nice outfits that probably came from Frederick's of Hollywood.

It was the stitches that hurt. Haven't bothered me since then.

Lovely DR Ginny.

Well, things are looking up for the month of January; I just got a commission from the Cincinnati Men's Chorus. It's nice to know that I may survive the winter and financial crunch of the past five months..

DR Ginny, if one of those lights goes out, does the whole tree go dark?

DR Elmore, congratulations on the commission!  Does it mean a trip to Cinninnati?

As for the lights, no.  It's 3 separate strands and each one is in sections.  At worst a section would go out and we have some replacement bulbs.

My early memories of Christmas tree lights are one light going out and taking the whole string with them. It drove my mother crazy.  She and my dad would bitch at each other while they tried to find the bad light. Oy!

DR Ginny, perhaps there will be a trip. It's for their concert the last weekend in March. I'd like to come in a couple of weeks before the concert to hear it and fix things.

Laundry is done I should go read.  Funny how a 400 page book only took me a couple of days while my current, short book, hasn't been read in the same amount of time.

I'm reading A CHRISTMAS CAROL to try and get into the Christmas spirit.  All I seem to do is say Humbug.

Had the meeting in Pasadena - I was petrified of traffic coming home as I didn't get on the freeway until four-thirty, but much to my surprise and delight, there was no traffic at all all the way home.

But I just don't have the energy to leave again and drive all the way to West LA for the Twilight Time party - I won't know that many people and I'm really not that fond of those sorts of things.  Besides, The Wolf of Wall Street arrived today in the form of a screener and I really want to watch that.

DR Jennifer I'm happy you had room to maneuver your car away from the idiot yesterday.

Wasn't me driving thank goodness. I really dislike driving during a snowstorm or when there has just been one. I don't even like being in the car. But had no choice in this instance.  I am not liking winter so far. So cold. And so much snow.
