A friend of mine on That Other Site just wrote and posted this:

This freakishly cold polar vortex
might be good for the sellers of Gore-Tex
but for me it's a pain
it's numbing my brain
and freezing my cerebral cortex.

The dog kept all four of his booties on during this morning's extended walk.

5 degrees F  here (that's -15 C, Jennifer)  they say with the wind chill its about  -14 (-25.556 C, Jennifer)

I know many DRs are having lower temperatures but at the moment I am contemplating a trip to stay with DR Laura ....until July


We are having -25C with windchill today too. Yuck. Yuck. Yuck. And it is supposed to rain next weekend (how is that even possible?)

With the wind chill factor, it's -13degrees F in Manhattan! While I like to keep the apartment cool, it's freezing today.

Good morning, all.

It's 18 degrees here. Even the cat is cold. He's sitting in the sun, hoping the sun remembers what it's supposed to do.

Great songs, BK. Loved the lyrics to Annie.

The Andrews Sisters recorded a version of Fugue for Tinhorns. Got a copy for Christmas. The liner notes say it was one of the rare occasions when each of the singers had solo parts. They recorded several songs from the show over the years. This set has "Guys and Dolls" and "A Bushel and a Peck," too.

I just heard from Joshie. He's in Atlanta now, and hoping to be on a flight to JFK at 12:30. 

I'm happy he's no longer stuck in Cancun.

I want (not need -- just want) to run a couple of errands, so just for comfort's sake I pulled the car out of the garage and am letting it run for ten minutes.  Makes a HELL of nice difference when you get in.  :)

But also, if I didn't do that, even after being parked in the garage, on a day like today the car would just be getting warm when I got to where I'm going which is ten minutes away.  Then I'd go into the store and it would get cold again and, well, you get my drift.

I am scheduled for a rehearsal on Thursday, so hopefully things will improve by then.  I have LOTS of material to read for the play - I feel as if I'm back in school.....oh my....

Currently it is -9 degrees with a real feel of -29 degrees.

AND I have to start reading....and finish learning my lines.

I enjoyed the videos very much!

Tuesday morning greetings!  It's clear and sunny in SW Ohio but still cold, cold, cold.  More undecking today, along with some gearing up for Saturday's AAUW meeting.

Back from a perfectly efficient errand.  Found exactly what I wanted at the first store. 

Ready now for a snack.

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

I have to begin this choral arrangement for the Cincinnati Men'sChorus, and today seems as good as any to dive in.

DR Elmore, I sure hope this project necessitates a visit to Cincinnati!

PS - you were very wise to reschedule your appointment this morning.

DR Ginny, I didn't reschedule; I'm already booked for thursday.

I've been cleaning out detritus around the apartment. I dumped lot of battered, blank music paper in the garbage, and reorganized all of my playbills and souvenir programs. I've got to get some cartons organized for the Miami University Library and assemble the things I need to take to Encores! tomorrow. First, some lunch.

I just heard from Joshie, who is still in Atlanta, waiting on the flight to LaGuardia.  I guess he's not flying back on Jet Blue.
