INSPIRED BY REAL LIFE EVENTS

Well, you've read the notes, the notes were inspired by real life notes, and now it is time for you to post until the real life cows come home.

as for the actor Live Schreiber there is nothing worse than seeing a Dead Schreiber.

ps his first name is Liev.Schreiber.

The automatic speller corrector doesn't allow you to write his first name.

It is very warm here today....and more rain is expected, though hopefully it will taper off as the day goes on.

And of course - light wise - this is the shortest day of the year.....

So glad to read that BK has a a great year artistically.

And don't forget that "The Ghastly Love of Johnny X" was finally released after something like 5 years after he filmed it. Actor Kevin McCarthy had been dead a couple of years by the time it was released.

I don't think it made it to the theaters down here in Florida.

Good news from DR CILLA LIZ....and of course nice to have the South Carolina reports from DR RLP.

I enjoyed the notes again today.

Got the weekend free to do whatever.  And I believe that the aforementioned whatever is going to be cleaning the house for the holidays.

I have a friend's Open House to go to this afternoon.  They just moved into this new house back in the summer, so it'll be an "open house" thing in both senses.  Several mutual friends will be in attendance, so it should be a lot of fun.

Good morning, all! I'm meeting my friend DJ at 11:00 to see SAVING MR BANKS. aim really looking forward to it.

I have no more news at the moment. I need to learn how to use Youtube as a pumping device for some of my work. That's one of my projects this week.

I'm looking forward to a good old-fashioned Christmas Afternoon at the Theatah -- I mean the theater -- seeing SAVING MR. BANKS with friends and, purportedly, about nine billion other people.  The local 16-screen AMC is predicting that will be one of their busiest days ever in their 20 years at this location.

Saturday morning greetings!  It's gray and rainy here in SW Ohio and I'm in all day to bake Christmas cookies and wrap presents.  First, though, pre-bake pizza crusts for tonight's dinner!

Good morning, all.

I'm feeling as if the allergens in the air are finally catching up with me. Either that or I'm too exhausted.

DR Jane I tried the baking soda.  I think maybe it helped.

I think it is mostly me. But it still bothers me.  Especially my eyes.

Hopefully it will get better. The colder weather did seem to help.

Thanks.

That is weird about Annie being at a cemetery. And not being able to hear some of the people at all. Not good.

Very interesting in the notes re: you always wanting to have the title before you start the book.

I wonder if many authors even get to choose the title of their books. Or if usually some suggestions are given by their editors.  I would also be curious if many authors have their title before starting the book. Or maybe they have an idea of what they would want to call it.

Taking a break while Richard uses the ShopVac to get rid of the floodwaters that were encroaching on the package-wrapping table.  No threat to the gifts, but I didn't want to be standing in a puddle.
