Three!

Now I can head out to dinner in a bit with some friends and chill out over a glass of wine and some food.

Next to the movie theater is a pizza restaurant, so we might go there afterward. I don't want to have a big meal before the movie to lessen the possibility of needing to "go down the hall," as my sister says, during the movie.

Which is of course different from the "hall pass" that Kathy Griffin kept referring to with Anderson Cooper on New Years Eve.

Have a great time, John G. Great to hear the radio spot went so well!

Kind of having a craving for Mexican food, so maybe I'll mosey on over to Casa Vega for an enchilada and a taco. If not, I suppose I'll just do Jerry's and be done with it. Then I'll come home and there will be no viewing of anything until I've written seven to ten pages.

MR BK has great writing discipline.

Good afternoon. So far this day has been... interesting. I stayed away from church - first Sunday missed since August, which needed to happen. The rest will be in the memoirs.

In the meantime, it's time to hunt for the proverbial needle in the proverbial haystack - again.

More about that later

Oh dear, I hope that thus does not mean unhappy news

Jane and Keith at the falls at At Belmond Hotel das Cataratas.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #71 on:** January 03, 2016, 02:58:47 PM »

Looks like they're having fun!

Thanks DR Jrand. The falls were my reason for this trip. I am looking forward to the next two days.

I'm ready to veg out. My workday is over, I've had some dinner, and I've got a book and vocal score to peruse and a murder mystery to watch.

Great photo, DR Jane! Glad you're having a good time!

Hello, everyone.

Jeanne · « **Reply #76 on:** January 03, 2016, 04:11:15 PM »

Thanks for the vibes. So far I'm getting off easy with this cold. I'm a bit feverish off and on, but few other symptoms besides fatigue. It's more of a part-time thing, rather than a full-time thing. And for that I am most grateful, as I'm still working on my 2015 to-do list.

KevinH · « **Reply #77 on:** January 03, 2016, 04:11:58 PM »

Today I went to see Kiss Me Kate at the Shakespeare Theatre in DC. Douglas Sills and Christine Sherrill starred and were terrific. Robyn Hurder and Clyde Alves (who was one of the sailors in the recent revival of On the Town) were also great. I'm so glad I saw it before it leaves town.

KevinH · « **Reply #78 on:** January 03, 2016, 04:13:25 PM »

Feel better vibes for DRs Jeanne, vixmom and Ginny!

New episodes of both Galavant and Downton Abbey are both on tonight!

I learned recently that a little (seats 18) mom-and-pop Indian restaurant that I used to frequent but had closed has now reopened in the same space. Yay! Very good food and quite affordable. They've changed things a bit. Their vegetarian combo plate (more than I can eat at one time) is now $6.95--cheaper than one of their nearby competitors. And they now offer an all-you-can-eat buffet for $10.95--copying one of their other competitors. I went over there today, all bundled up, and ate a nourishing meal, plus brought enough food home for at least two more meals. One can only eat so much soup, right? (And I'm a soup lover.)

The needle has been found.

I'm annoyed with PBS. They changed their website again and I can no longer stream from it. That means no DOWNTON ABBEY, no SHERLOCK, no CALL THE MIDWIFE. The latter two will likely be available on Netflix at some point, but not DA. DA has an exclusive contract with Amazon. So I'll have to buy it or borrow it. I am not pleased.

ChasSmith, can you be more specific about "the days are screwed up" - I want to get a list of problems to our host.

That wasn't about the calendar, just my own sense of what day it is.

Very good! Perhaps you'll give us a few details at some point.

In November, I bought a ticket to see Glenn Close reprise her role in a semi-staged production of Sunset Blvd. with the English National Opera this spring in London.

Well, the ticket arrived in the mail before I moved last month, and since the move I couldn't find it. Today, I went through all the un-packed boxes and things like that to be sure I hadn't missed it in the un-packing. Well, when I thought all was lost, I looked in a small box that I had overlooked twice now in my search, and there it was.

I think I'm done for the day!

Yes, thanks. I think tomorrow I'll finally get out to visit Mom.
