Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

Did anybody watch that ENCORE show the other night where they mounted a production of INTO THE WOODS in one week?

Seemed a bit unbelievable.

I recorded it but haven't watched it, yet.

ENCORE is not available on COMCAST ABC ON DEMAND - that's strange....it was on Sunday night.

Maybe it's not there because it was a one-off episode.  If you want, I could make a DVD and send it to you. :)

I was going to ask you all for cat-catching vibes tonight. I am trying to trap the last two feral cats -- they were kittens when I tried last July. I caught them in about twenty minutes. Tomorrow the vet.

The SAG Awards (definitely in the who gives a flying Wallenda category) has not given a nomination to Millicent Simmonds for Wonderstruck - this means only one thing - the nominators, who are chosen randomly and who mostly are out of work, talentless morons, didn't bother to watch the film - had they, she would have been nominated.  They also ignored The Post completely - which means they didn't see it.  But rather than be honest, they just do their stupid thing - this is right up there with the People's Choice Awards.  I'm really hoping that the Academy watches Wonderstruck and gives Ms. Simmonds a nod, but then again it doesn't pander, is not Oscar bait, and is probably not spending money on top of money to buy a nomination.

And now, I'm off to my sister's for a bit.  My niece and my mom made some German cookies today and my niece said that she'll have some for me!  Yummy!

Be back later!

I apologize for being E & T last evening.  I fell asleep at about 7:30, and slept straight through until 5:30 a.m.

Heavenly.  I know you needed it.

Well, Desperate Measures was a hoot, a truly funny musical comedy with a good score and lyrics, dialogue in rhyming couplets, and a fine cast.  Lauren Molina, to my surprise, is not playing the heroine whose virtue is in danger but the raucous whore Belle, and she's very very very funny. She has a wonderful duet in Act Two with her romantic interest "Just For You" and a duet with the nun, both dressed as brides, "It's A Beautiful Day for a Lifelong commitment."  Leading man Peter Saide is a real find: tall, dark, handsome, good actor, wonderful singer, and a good sense of comedy.  I kept thinking, he's a handsomer Alfred Drake.

The Act one closer, ""In the Dark," is really lovely.

The show runs through December 31, and it's really worth a trip to see it. It was nice to see my friend David Hancock Turner being musical director ad orchestrator and my friend Douglas playing the fiddle and mandolin.

DR George, Annabelle has a broken fang, and it's going to cost me around $1000 to take care of it.  As soon as she and Thatch are well, I'll address that issue.  She's been really clingy tonight since I got in.

Tommy Emmanuel was brilliant. And he played 2.5 hours altogether. The first set, only an hour or so had plenty of amazing guitar solos, Beatles songs, Classical Gas, stuff he played with Chet Atkins and his originals. Then he did a mostly Christmas set with a not-so-Hot singer and two other great guitar players. Just good stuff.

Thanks, Jane!  When I got home tonight, Neve was laying on the couch and when she shook her head, there still was a rattling sound in her ear!  I need to call the vet tomorrow and ask about that. :-\
