Well, you've read the notes, the notes looked back, and now it is time for you to post until the looking back cows come home.

First I wanted to correct a typo.

I can easily do the 2nd post I was attempting.

DR TCB the photos of the tornado looked awful. I am glad it didn't hit you.

Well, I need to go to sleep. My ex-boyfriend (we remained friends) is going to call me in the morning to chat. We haven't seen each other in quite a few years, but we've texted and e-mailed and stayed in contact.

Have a good day, all!

I am somewhat nervous about learning all I need to know about what she has been doing for 20 years in only 6 more days

The old office was open so we all saw each other,the new one is all little cubicles so you can't see anyone else

Good afternoon, all. It’s already 12:30 here.

I want to state on the record that I never was Anastasia and have never claimed to be. That I recall. What I said under the influence of relaxing substances is another subject matter.

John G. · « **Reply #14 on:** December 19, 2018, 03:33:42 AM »

It’s raining off and on today, so we will see what happens.

I think I slept well, although it seemed like a very long night. Faithful Thatch stayed with me all night. Annabelle crawled into bed for a bit, then headed for her washtub in the bathroom. She goes through moods.

This is my last City Center day for a week. Joshie leaves for family tomorrow. I may bring some work home with me, but I'll only know for sure today. I have plenty to do here with that choral arrangement and How To Succeed . . . piano/conductor score for Act Two.

I watched THE NAKED CITY (1948) last night on DVD.

Hadn't seen it for 10 years or more, and I was amazed at the number of unbilled/then unknown performers in that cast who later had major careers as character actors...and stars. Some of them just had silent or one line bits. It was like "spot the future star". Among them:

Arthur O'Connell
David Opatoshu
Nehemiah Persoff
Molly Picon
John Marley
James Gregory
Kathleen Freeman
Bruce Gordon
Paul Ford
John Randolph
and
Curt Conway (One of my very first publicity clients and one of the top acting coaches of his day.)

I may have missed one or two, but none of those folks had on-screen billing

DR Jane-- I guess this is late but to answer your question, the weather was beautiful here yesterday. And it looks to be another nice day today.

DRs Matthew and Jane: Can you tell me how long it took to get an interview for Global Entry? I applied in October and the status is still "wait for conditional approval." Of course the time probably varies depending on geographic location but I'd like to get an idea.

Today is Wednesday.

I am having lunch with my lovely cousin Carol - my cousin on my mother's side. My mother's sisters and brothers all seemed to have children in three's - so there are sets of three cousins very close in age born from the late forties to the mid-sixties.....

The third member of our trio - cousin Jenny - passed away many years ago....I was born in late 1950, Jenny was born in early 1951, and Carol was born in mid 1951.

I enjoyed watching the Laverne and Shirley episode that MR BK posted yesterday....and I remember seeing it on its first run!

Jrand73 · « **Reply #25 on:** December 19, 2018, 06:40:58 AM »

I remember seeing Penny Marshall and Carrie Fisher in some film about their lives - I don't remember, it may have been on the old A/E channel....anyway, they were getting a massage out by Penny's swimming pool and talking about how women are treated by the industry.....

And Penny said something like - every guy I meet, every guy who takes me out.....after about the third date he says: "I have a script...."

I have decided not to purchase the new TV....I don't think the increase in screen size by 4" would really make that much difference....I will wait until I can get a screen that's at least 9 or 10 inches wider.....

Not too late at all. Thank you. I am glad the weather has been nice.

It would have taken months for me, not much time at all for Keith, weird since he submitted my application half an hour after his. They sent us options, once we were approved for interviews, to stop at the airport on our return trip out of the country. You have to go through regular customs first and then go to the global entry line for the interview.

Sounds like you made the right decision to wait.
