Well, you've read the notes, the notes were from the fjord, and now it is time for you to post until the fjord cows come home.

As most of you know, this month is the ten-year anniversary of my revue, What If.  So it's only fitting that some stupid movie stole my title :)  Once again, we're ahead of our time.  The original title of this film was The F Word, which is a much better title than the one they stole.

In iTunes right now:  Forbidden Broadway Comes Out Swinging.  I just bought it late last night (less than an hour ago), but it included AutoRip, so I was able to download the MP3s right away. So far, it's pretty funny.

It's interesting (kind of) that  movies not allowed to use titles of other movies without permission (I'm recalling the brouhaha over "The Butler" being use as a title, which forced it to be called Lee Daniels' The Butler) - while they can use titles of works in another medium with no one caring?

Good morning. And I'm off.

TOD: I've had a Fiddler on the Roof CD in the car for a couple of weeks now. I should put something new in; I'm tired of it.

TOD

BLU - Cronenberg's Scanners which, oddly, I never saw.  And I need to treat myself to another Demy out of the Criterion box.

CD or LP - Don't know yet, but a couple of records would be just the ticket.  We'll see.

TOD:

If I get to the library I'll watch "Le Week-end." If not, maybe an Eric Rohmer movie.

In the car, I'll be finishing up a book called "Sous-Chef," which is the latest -- and least interesting -- food book I've come across in a while. It's short, which is really in its favor.

Good morning, all! Last night was not a god night, and it seems tobe the end of a lousy week. I am hoping that whatever madness has possessed the Man from Philadelphia is over, and I hear no more from him. Ever.

Around 2:30 I awoke from a dream involving my parents. I cannot recall much of it nw, but it took place in the house where I grew up, my brother randy was still very small, and it had something to do with my going into the military. My only real memories of the dream now are my stripping my bed in the room I shared with Macbeth and taking a plaid blanket that I folded up, and saying "Mama, I don't know when we'll see each other again." And I woke with this enormous sense of loss and grief. I wept for a while and went back to sleep.

So, today I've got therapy and still no television service from Time Warner. So, service has now been out more than 24 hours.

Friday.

DR ELMORE the Dream-O-Matic 6000 says that your dream indicates your willingness to accept loss only if those around you do so - do not bear their burden, it belongs to them.

I hope to finish learning my lines today - so I should probably start working on that.

Friday morning greetings!  We opened our windows and turned off the AC last night and I slept much better.  Looks like rain today, so I'll probably stay home and try to get my AAUW president act back together.

I thought I had pre-ordered DR John G.'s book - but I hadn't.  So that is now remedied.
