Ariana Grande is quite wonderful on the show - wonder if she'll ever come back to Broadway

Was Glenn Close in the film?

No, but she was in MBARNUM.

But not for long. That would terrify Mikey!

Well, it's time for me to leave work and head out. I have to feed my friend Margo's cats...and the cat that she is supposed to be feeding, but she's out of town for a couple of days, so I'm doing that for her, too. Fortunately, the friend lives right next door, so there's no traveling. I wouldn't have done it, otherwise.

After the cat-feeding, the family is all having dinner at Budd Bay Café...our annual tradition. We usually go to my sister's house after that, then we're all at our own homes before the west coast midnight.

Be back later!

And Happy New Year to those who'll get there before I get back!

I'm going to watch the Maggie Smith-Michael Gambon film QUARTET tonight. I missed it in the theatre this year and I've been wanting to see it.

Trying to finish one more movie before the partay begins. But we've got us a good start, don't we?

not only that but all the bank closer I was dealing with this week kindly sent out all their packages early so not only did I leave early but all my closing packages for Thursday and Friday are already done

A lovely way to end the work year!

It's all that good humor and kindness you send out into the universe daily, DR vixmom!

Thank you so much, Vixmom!

I hope I chose well....

..because nothing rings in the New Year better than a good bowl of boy soup.

Is there girl soup, too? Or are boys tastier?

I've always been partial to boys, myself

I was catching up on epsidoes of JULIA last night...just love that show, although some episodes are a bit forced...and the actors tend to scream their lines in the earlier episodes...but tons of wonderful guest stars appear, and Diannah Carroll is truly one of the most beautiful women ever!

And she is still beautiful.

She's a recurring character on "White Collar" and she even got to sing on the show last season. She's still got it!

I really enjoy her in that role. A mobster's widow! She looks great.

Babs sent me her combination CD / DVD "Back To Brooklyn" to me. It arrived today.

Oh wait, maybe I ordered it myself. Well, it is the thought that counts.

I think you'll enjoy it, TCB! Look for my friend Michael from Greece during Happy Days Are Here Again. There's a closeup of him with tears down his face and then of him singing along with Barbra. And my friend Robin is at the very very end holding up her sign "Thank You Barbra, We (Heart) You!'

I have several DVD's from the Library.

They are:

THE WEIGHT OF WATER
MR BROOKS
UNDER SUSPICION
THE TERMINAL
WONDER BOYS
THIS IS THE END
THE ARTIST
MALICE
THE JANE AUSTINE BOOK CLUB ( I have already seen it but want to see again)
MILDRED PIERCE (The HBO one with Kate Winslet)
Have any DR's seen any of these movies and read this book?

I was impressed with both the original and the remake of MILDRED PIERCE. It's no surprise that I liked the original, but I wasn't at all sure I'd like the remake. It's quite a different film from the original, but a good one in its own way.

The remake is closer to the original Cain novel.

I didn't know that. The original is so powerful and such a beautiful, classic film.

And E & T DR Jason is now settled in (I assume) in Seattle for the next week along with the cast and crew of VELVEETA.

I heard the production was a bit cheesy.
