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.


I would gladly drive from here to West L. A. to avoid watching THE WOLF OF WALL STREET.

Starting to watch a film noir from Nicholas Ray called "They Live by Night" with Farley Granger and Howard Da Silva. Really gruesome beginning. Should be fun.


I like that movie.

I had to respond to a long email with Keith's aunt so I didn't get to read.  She suggested a number of books to read and they were all on my wish list-lol




Where do you have your wishlist?

I would open a cattery.  There are no shelters around here for cats well other than the city pound and the humane society, but none that really serve as a rescue center.  With that much I could get  a good staff and have Jackson Galaxy appear for the opening.

Native Minnesota wild rice was a component of my dinner this evening.  Delicious!


Would that be your famous Rice A Roni Wild Rice?

I would make a lot of charities happy.  And buy a place in NYC.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

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..

Great news, Larry!  Congrats!!

My place in New York would have to have at least 3 bedrooms and two baths, so that people would have a place to stay.

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.

Crap!  I forgot that I wanted to do a little laundry tonight.  Actually, it's not really that late, so I can get something started.

If I must...but I noticed that you have abandoned the effort.

Topic of the Day:  I can't remember if I've watched a whole Agatha Christie movie all the way through, but I did love the Doctor Who episode where she was a character. ;D

I'm watching "The Sing-Off" and I just noticed that Jewel (new judge this year) pronounces "octave" like "ock-TAVE" (also, with the accent on the second syllable), not "OCK-tiv."  I've never heard it pronounced like that.  I don't know if it's because she's Canadian or what, but it's different...not wrong, just different.

I noticed that with my latest Kindle software update, Goodreads has become a native part of the operating system.

What kind of Kindle do you have?  I have the Kindle Keyboard (originally, it was called the 3rd Generation).  I don't know if there have been updates for mine.  I haven't turned on the wi-fi and synched up with my account in quite a while.  I do that (or don't do that, actually) so that the books that I've gotten from the library don't go away.
