It is POURING out there.  We are soooo pleased to have walked this afternoon when the sun was shining and it was 57 degrees out.

[Laura]

Good afternoon. I had my five-week oral surgery recheck today. So I went ahead and made an appointment for the other side.  We have no dental insurance, either.

Oh, no! 

~~~Teeth Vibes for Laura!!~~~

Oh dear I am so sorry to hear this Laura

Thanks, but it's fine. The recheck went well. It is healing nicely. I just made the appointment to get the other side done. We didn't do both at the same time, because he thought it would be nice for me to be able to eat while it was healing.

We've never had dental insurance.

I just wish Vixmom's teeth would turn out for once!!

That is an excellent reason to wait.  It is good news you are healing nicely.

I'm now on to disc 2 of the epic War and Peace.  The Russians and Holy Roman Empire just lost the battle of Austerlitz, 1805.  I don't think the actor playing Napoleon looks enough like the real McCoy.  Anthony Hopkins really is amazing, Alan Dobie reminds me a bit of Mel Ferrer, and I wish Audrey Hepburn were the Natasha, but Morag Hood is okay.  So far, Natasha's been a background character.  I really love the actress playing the slutty Princess Hélène.  Her cleavage is astounding, and Hopkins is so funny watching it.

I watched that version way back when. I may get the Bondarchuk version from the library in a week or two.

That version seems to exist in too many different ediitions, and not always in the bet of prints.  I think the BBC version will be all the W&P I need. Much as I like Andrew Davies' adaptations of Jane Austen, I really do not care much for the look of the characters ib the photos of his last BBC adaptation of W&P

Thanks I am really pleased with how the last set looked , but somewhat sad that my teeth are so yellow in compArison..40+ years of tea and coffee took their toll

[Jrand74]

Is it midnight yet?

No....not even on the East Coast.

Plow Man came.

Once I've finished with the cleanup tomorrow, I'll try to put up a bit of photographic evidence.

I never felt good about how dark my teeth seemed to be, but I also never considered that any kind of whitening treatment could work for them.  That, fortunately, turned out to be a little bit untrue and silly, because the procedure my dentist now uses got mine "a few shades" lighter, which was a thrill to hear.  Would I like them lighter still?  Of course.  And maybe that can happen, maybe not.  But like she said, we're also not in our twenties any more, and only so much of that tea and coffee and red wine can be undone.

Damn.  We'll be on page fifty by the time the clock strikes three.

Scrooge will just be getting visited by one of the Christmas spirits.

Finished with my early viewing and listening to more Sibelius by Alexander Gibson - really love this guy's conducting and, as I said, though I wish the sound were more immediate, this is better than most Chandos recordings.  And happily his great 5th that I already had is from 1959 is superb sound.

[vixmom]

It's 11. Only one hour until the posting if the link

[vixmom]

Unless you subscribe to to that silly "pacific time"stuff

11:08.

Time marches on!

[vixmom]

I need to go to the new city of York tomorrow to conduct a closing because we had a shortage of available closers

[vixmom]

That should really really fun

[vixmom]

Maybe I should start now

[bk]

Page seven?  Really?

[vixmom]

Amazing what an east coast blizzard can do to increase page count

[vixmom]

We should be rewarded with a  12 EST announcement

I keep hearing this in my head, as though issuing from some not quite dead character in a Creepshow type movie...

"Where's my BOOK?!?"

[bk]

Let me see if the page is ready.

That Andrew Davies version was crap.

I never drink tea, coffee and red wine -- at least not together.
