DR John G, that's the movie I've been trying to think of all day!  It has a great chase scene through the library where Goldie's character works and she defends herself by pushing a full book truck down the stairs at the bad guys.  My friend Becky (also a then-young librarian) and I saw the movie together and decided to remember that tactic.  Fortunately, neither of us ever had to use it!

I think Ron reminded me of it.

This morning as I was starting to get ready for work, right below my right eye it suddenly started to get really puffy.  I took an allergy pill and rinsed off my face, but I have no idea why it's doing it. My eyes have been bothering me lately and  I have sort of felt like I"m catching a cold.  I decided to take the afternoon off and come home and rest. I have work I can do here, but I also have the time to rest, so I may just sit

I often had that problem when we had cats.  Rinsing them in distilled water reduced the problem.

I am not allergic to cats but the combination of their fur and dust, or whatever, really bothers me.

Thursday afternoon greetings!  I had to get myself out of the house earlier than I like to go put out an AAUW fire before tending to Mom and grocery shopping.

It sounds like you had a fun day.

DR Cilla do you have Alaway or Zaditor allergy eye drops?

One of my favorites. It's Lerner and Lane, "One More Walk Around the Garden," sung by Hal Linden, Len Cariou and John Cullum.

I've watched or listened to it maybe five times in the last two days:

The cold is coming in quickly. Will probably drop 30 degrees tonight. And who knows about that snow tomorrow.

Rinsing the cats?!?!?!   Um no, I don't think they would tolerate that.   I'm not allergic to cats, that I know

I have regular eye drops that really helped.  I took a Claritin and feel much better

I"m going to night one of the Siouxland film festival tonight. It's foreign and art house films.  Apparently two film makers flew in from Paris to see the world premier of their movie.  They are all short films.  Should be a fun night

It is what gets on them that bothers me.  I'm highly allergic to dust and dust mites.  You can just wipe them down with the water-lol

My cousin in-law's obit.  It mentions a few of the old tv shows she worked on.

Well, I must be off.  I'm working concessions for "Comedy In the Box."  I'm bringing my Kindle to read in the lobby.  The comedy shows are well attended, but they aren't always as funny (or the kind of funny) as I would like.

Until later!

DR John G, Annalene told me today that when they did the BBC Radio concert of THE GOOD COMPANIONS, she was five months pregnant with her daughter Rose.

I will miss her.

As predicted, most of the schools opened two hours late today, as did the federal government.  I ended up taking the bus to the Metro (rail) instead of driving. I started to get out of my parking lot and thought I was going to hit some of the other parked cars since it was so slippery.

TOD:  Most of DR George's movies!  Not surprisingly, "What's Up, Doc?" was the first that came to mind before I read anyone else's lists.

DR Kevin how much snow did you end up getting?  Craig's school was closed.  Was it the same in your district or did they have a delayed opening?

Back from a rather strenuous tango class. The doctor said nothing about exercise, so I hope I'm not overdoing it while on all these pills, inhalers, etc.
