Some days shit happens. I got to the bank tyo deposit the check, put it into the ATM, it disappeared within the machinery and the screen said it was unable to return or process the check. I then spent 15 or so minutes with a customer service person named Keith who gave me a temporary credit of $500 and launched an investigation.

Since I do noit know when they will find the check, hopefully in one piece, I'm not doing anything with this account till the bank resolves it. Color me very frustrated and very pissed off.

Now I am watching the dvd of Bridge of Spies. I had to stop for something half way, but I am liking it very much.

Well I started watching THE MARTIAN last night.....but turned it off after about 20 minutes. He was planting potatoes....and I didn't think I could take another 90 minutes or so of it.

And everyone was talking so fast - I never did figure out WHY they all left the ship during the storm to begin with.....what was their reason? I didn't hear.....

I loved The Martian. You should really continue watching it. Excellent movie.

DR vixmom, When my brother Macbeth and his first (and nice) wife were 2 hours late for Christmas dinner around 1976 after having to deal with my sister-in-law's grandparents, my insane mother threw their gifts all over the front yard and told them never to come back/ You and Steve got off easy!

Oh, my!

Speaking of cancer, today is the birthday of my friend who is currently undergoing treatment. I emailed him yesterday to see how he is and to tell him I have work for him.

Sunday afternoon greetings! While Fr. Richard was getting dressed I woke up with one of those coughing spells and was afraid to lie back down after he left. After breakfast and meds I did go back to sleep in my recliner. This is getting very old. As am I...

~~~Feel Better Vibes for Ginny!!~~~

Eubie is correct. It's a really good revue - great music, great performances - Gregory Hines was a Tony nominee for it, but the strangest nomination it got was for best original score - that couldn't happen today.

I'm up after almost nine hours of sleep. Very groggy.

George · « **Reply #72 on:** February 21, 2016, 12:09:55 PM »

Well, I need to leave now for our final performance. I'm sure it'll be a good show. There's not much to the set, so strike will be fairly light and easy. Tonight, I'm house managing for TAO's show. So, it's a two show day for me.

Until later!

Cool! I have the album, but haven't listened to it in years. I never made a cassette (or even a CD) of that. Now, I don't have to.

And NOW I'm leaving.

I think I will read the book instead DR JENNIFER.

A Plus TCB, you are absolutely correct. It is Roslyn Kind, Barbara"s little sister.

Two more Moross numbers down. The Act One closer is humongous and will take me a couple of days. I want a nap/

And now the damned cable box is behaving mysteriously. What a strange day.

Chas I can't find the link to your show. Though I know you posted it. I wax wondering if this is a show I could get to or if it was too far or closing too soon

Two more weekends: http://twoplankstheater.org/buy-tickets/

I-95 to Bridgeport, then about 20 minutes up Route 25. It would be great to see you, but really, only do it if you're in the mood for a getaway to see a modest production with not even the full band.

Dang it looks like about 100 miles away and a couple of hours drive I don't think I am going to get there

The movie is actually not slow like you'd think. They go back and forth between stuff happening on Earth and Matt Damon. So it is actually not just him staring at a potato.

So, Time Warner is sending a cable person with a new DVR for me tomorrow. While I was talking to the technician, the cable box went insane. at least i can watch a DVD tonight.

I left Joshie a message that I will not be in tomorrow. It's a bummer since I need the wordl, but I can work on the Moross Act one Finale.
