Was up at ten, of course, and dealing with a date change for the Kritzerland February show - which I heard about just before midnight last night.  Seems there was some unfortunate miscommunication and our host let the Sunday go - I never told him to do so but he assumed because I'd INQUIRED about other dates as options that's what I meant, which, of course, it wasn't.  And I never heard back about other dates other than the previous Sunday and Monday weren't available nor was the Monday night the 6th.  So, we're on Tuesday the 7th and thankfully everyone can make that change and for some it's even better because they must have their precious Stupid Bowl Sunday.

Since our snow this morning -- which I "leaf-blew" off the driveway, thankyouverymuch -- it's been a bright sunny day, and there's a nice difference between this kind of sunny and the summer kind.

In other news, I earlier ate halves of two nice bagels -- a sesame seed and an everything -- with scallion cream cheese.  And I'm now thinking about those other halves.

Druxy, I tried hearing your show whilst eating the aforementioned bagels, and it doesn't play for me.  It just sits at 00:00.

ChasSmith, could it be your browser?  I am now listening to it without any trouble.

I'm using Internet Explorer at my work.  I also tried it on Chrome that I have at work, and that works, too.

Yes, it certainly was, and it's not the first time I've had things not play in Firefox.  Works in Chrome, thanks, DR George.

DR TCB has been asking about colors.  Yes, I think they're more vibrant now.  And it's much easier to tell my black turtlenecks from the navy blue ones.

Allergies at an obnoxious level today. I sneezed, honked and dripped throughout a four-hour meeting earlier.

I have been home for about 40 minutes.  My shorts were at therapy and they are back in my possession.  We accomplished much at City Center, so I'm happy with the day.

Shocking news from Ft. Lauderdale.  Most depressing.

Hello.  Happy Friday.

I feel terrible, but I'm at work.

I might feel awful, but I only feel terrible.

We are to have major rains this weekend.

I guess I won't be sun bathing.

Fortunes are won and lost on Stupid Bowl Sunday.

For most everyone who gambles on it, it's hit or miss, win or lose.

That's life.

DR Kerry Report: He is responding to the antibiotics. Thank you for the vibes and prayers. I have no doubt they helped.

Well, I'm off.  First, I'm going to my parents' for our weekly family meal, then I'll be going to TAO's full run-through rehearsal for our extra performance of "The Physician in Spite of Himself," then I'll come home.

Be back later.

Back from a fun lunch meeting with Doug Haverty about a project we'll be working on.  Then picked up a couple of packages.

But came home to the news that now the 7th is out for the Kritzerland show - some studio came in and waved their big checkbook at The Federal and they gave the date away.  So, now we're being offered Thursday the 2nd or Thursday the 9th and I now have to try and make one of those work - hopefully the second, which I'd prefer - if we do the ninth, then I'm only three weeks away from the next show.  So, instead of writing, which is what I should be doing, I'm dealing with this stupidity.  I have, however, written about four pages, so seven or so to go, and I'm in a section that shouldn't be too hard.  The four I've done were all add-ons to yesterday's stuff - I realized when I went to bed last night that I needed much more fun and detail in the last four pages I'd written, and that's what the four pages I've done so far were.  It really helped and it really WAS fun.  I'll now try to write another two or three so that I only have to do five later tonight.

Terrible news from Ft. Lauderdale.  My friend Robin was on her way back from LA.   Her plane was to stop in Dallas before continuing to Ft. Lauderdale.  Needless to say, she's stuck in Dallas, but she's more concerned about the families who lost loved ones.
