The plumber has finished his work. He stopped the leak by replacing pipe, and solved the pressure problems on the taps. I have a mess to clean up, but I can't do much until the space below the sink is dry. Then I'll put everything away and mop the kitchen and bathroom floors.

MAY THIS BE THE LAST OF YOUR PLUMBING PROBLEMS!!!!!

The UPS and USPS postman arrived almost back to back. I have a lot of packages to open tomorrow.

And today, my favorite Irish actor, Karl Harpur, got married! I needed an actor for EILEEN and by great luck I sat next to a Dubliner on my flight to record it who said "My best friend's an actor." By the time I had arrived at my hotel, Karl had emailed me and I signed him sight unseen. Turns out, he had worked on RIVERDANCE with my Irish producers, and I was lucky to get him for both EILEEN and DEAREST ENEMY. He's currently in Dublin working in pantomime for Christmas before he and his wife head to LA, where he's trying to break into TV and film. He's one of the best.

Hey, everyone!

Not doing anything for Christmas (the one kosher Chinese place in my nabe isn't all that great, and there aren't any movies that I'm dying to see enough to justify the sitter), but wishing all those doing the dos to do great dos!

Just made a chocolate-peppermint mousse cake for no reason other than I wanted to. It's resting in the fridge. Albert Finney as Scrooge is on. And Im taking it easier than I should for a while.

Yes, the weather people said there would not be a white Christmas since all the snow had melted with the warmer temps and rain the other day.   But they were wrong!  We have about 4 inches of snow.  Just right.  I hope the drive will be okay to my nephew's later.

DR Kate and I watched the 1938 version of A Christmas Carol.  She noted that the actor who played Tiny Tim, Terry Kilburn, is a dead ringer for Miley Cyrus--I had to agree!

I've been up since ten, when the doorbell rang and I received a beautiful gift of flowers from the Pogues - they are in a place of prominence.  Then I got back in bed until the house heated up a bit, then went and bought a huge stainless steel pot, perfect for boiling up five or even six pounds of pasta.  I'm always amazed how inexpensive cookware is sometimes.

Now I suppose I'll jog, then start cooking, then see if there are any packages to pick up.  A local critic in LA, Don Grigware, who usually reviews our Kritzerland shows and who gave Sandy Bainum's show a rave, has given an award to both CD and the show she did.
