They did not, however, mention Vixgram's chair.

Richard and I went to a spaghetti dinner fundraiser tonight for the Art Central Foundation. It was nice to eat something besides turkey.

Trader Joe's was busy but there was no line at the register.

That NEVER happens at my Trader Joe's. Ever. And there are four of them near me.

I should be used to it by now, but every now and then, I get these emails that start with "WTF" and still get startled before I realize they're from the Williamstown Theatre Festival mailing list.

LOL

Are they aware what it looks like?

Thanks for the link for Sabra Hummus, DR Jane. When I got home there was a voicemail from my local supermarket (Giant) listing all of the different sizes and varieties of Sabra that were being recalled. I listened to them all, waiting for the bottom line--do I return it for a refund? Only problem--there wasn't enough room left on the voicemail for the whole message.

We had a call last night we thought was from Sabra. Maybe it was from Fred Meyer/Kroger. I decided not to try and return it at the market today. I checked it had all been pulled and there was a notice regarding the recall. At the bottom it said I could return them to the store. I am expecting not to need a receipt. The website also had something about how to get a refund.

The NY Times had a couple articles about how to avoid contentious conversations at the holiday dinner table. they even had a list of topics to discuss instead. I find this both humorous and a real sign of the times. (Well, the Times, too.)

Interesting.

How many here have actually heard a Sibelius symphony?

Listened to No. 1 today. presented with the Karelia Suite and Lemminkained Suite. Lovely stuff.

So while I held a vague hope that I would spend Thamksgiving basking in the glow of a happy mother with her longed for chair (albeit without arm covers) well...

I'm laughing harder at this story than the new Ghostbusters. 25 minutes into the movie and I've smiled twice. No laughs yet.

This isn't UPS this is Amazon's own drivers.

Listened to the second symphony - very good, but not Ormandy in terms of orchestral detail but very good nonetheless. After this there's no more Ormandy Sibelius from Columbia until the final symphony seven.

Packaging is proofed but some major song info was left off so I've spent the last hour researching that and now have gotten that information to the designer - easy to fix.

My cellphone battery is on its last legs and I can't get a new one until late January. Ugh.

Maybe I should give up the phone.

I just remembered that when I was going to Western Washington University in Bellingham, WA, the fire trucks all had BFD on the sides!

(That would, of course, also happen with any other city that started with the letter B.)

And on that note (B...naturally), I'm off to rehearsal. Tonight is our first full run-through. We'll all get to see how it all fits together. Pray for Rosemary's Baby!

Until later!

I have never heard a Sibelius Symphony - unless one was ever used in a Bugs Bunny cartoon.
