Well, you've read the notes, the notes met me in Dahl, and now it is time for you to post until the Dahl cows come home.

And the word of the day is: BILLINGSGATE!

Today, I'm working concessions again. This time, it's for "A Really Big Shoe 8 – Entertainment Explosion Goes to the Movies." It's for a good cause:

Quote

This show to benefit homeless and needy children takes its songs, dances and comedy skits from the movies. Tumwater High School’s marching band will perform “Seventy-six Trombones” and Elvis will be in the house. “Grumpy Old Men” and “You’ve Got Mail” comedy skits will tickle your funny bone!

I think a friend of mine is in the cast, if she's still in the group. It's been a few years since I've worked for this show, so I'm not sure. It'll be fun.

Good Morning on a Sunday. It's too early for a Sunday morning, but there you have it.

Good morning, all.

I thought I had to go into the wilds of New Jersey on an errand with a friend, but just found out that's been cancelled, at least for today. So here I am, clocks all SPRUNG FORWARD and no place to go. Which is totally fine. Still much to do here today.

In the meantime,

Toast, banana, and COFFEE.

Good morning, all! I detest Daylight savings Time and curse the morons who ever thought it up. After a flurry of calls on Thursday and Friday in attempts to talk to me, there has been no word from the Man from Philadelphia since. I'm expecting "the call" today,so I'm keeping my day open.

I will tidy up the place, perhaps watch a movie, and ponder my day tomorrow, which involves lots of shuffling about Manhattan.

I need coffee. Badly.

Man from Philadelia vibes, DR Elmore.

Thanks! I dread the call for several reasons, the big one being that he has been communicating against my advice with the jerk foundation that employed me and my team between 2001 and 2011 and wants to tell me what great people these creeps are. I can send him emails and voice my disagreement till i'm blue in the face, but in the past I've seen him get suckered in by other Greeks bearing gifts and a good line.

We watched RUSH last night.

Good movie, though the final scene was a bit awkward.

Good morning, all.

Great concert last night. A violinist named Kolja Blacher played and conducted. The program included Beethoven's first, Mozart's Concerto No. 5 for Violin and Orchestra and Tchaikovsky's Serenade in C major. I wasn't familiar with the Tchaikovsky piece, which was all happiness and serenity, and I loved every minute of it. They did an encore of a Dvorak romance.

We ran into one of the violinists after the concert. She sounded exhausted and she admitted that Blacher had really put them through their paces, but she was also grateful for it.

When will your new book be available???

Kate · « **Reply #17 on:** March 09, 2014, 09:58:34 AM »

I watched MARTY last night with my hubby.

We both enjoyed it!

It's interesting to see how the film industry made woman look so matronly in the fifties!!!

Unseemly is as unseemly does.

I have had a full morning at church, and am now ready for a lovely nap.

Sunday afternoon greetings! We're back from Lima and a quick stop at the book sale. Madame President (Moi) just wanted to see hoe things were going on Bag Sale day. It was quite crowded and they had plenty of help.

Jane · « **Reply #27 on:** March 09, 2014, 01:45:35 PM »

We aren't having as much rain as expected today. Once it eased off we went for a nice walk.

Hello, everyone.

It's quite warm here today, low 80s. We didn't have much winter and now it's almost spring. I miss winter!
