Two!

[elmore3003]

I must step out to the UPS store.

[Druxy]

DR DRUXY I thought that you wrote you were bored and driving to San Antonio for a change of scenery - but I didn't go back and check before I posted.

I am a bit bored, but not driving to San Antonio.

Been there. Done that.

Actually, for the past couple of months, I've been busy directing audio versions of my plays.

Two are up and running (Audrey Hepburn & Jason Robards)
Another has been approved and will be out within a day or two (Gary Cooper)
Two more are finished and waiting approval (Roy Scheider and Bud Abbott)
A novel is in production (NOBODY DROWNS IN MINERAL LAKE)
Hopefully, I'm about to cast my Peter Lorre play.

Not sure what I'll do next.

I'd recast.

I didn't get to all my errands.  I was moving so poorly today that I got to the UPS store and the market.  I did not make it to the bank, and that can wait until Monday.  For the first time ever in my forty years as a New Yorker I was actually terrified to be out on the streets.  I don't like this fear, but I'm terrified I will fall down and no one will help me up.

On a happier note, my new lease arrived in the mail and I have a home for two more years.

Good afternoon!

[Jane]

DR JANE - I don't know.....to answer your question.....but then I don't have a new grandchild......

I don't know.....just for me....probably - no - but your circumstances are very different.

Right, you wouldn't go and I wouldn't either if this wasn't such an emotional event I am missing.

[Jane]

The brain vs the heart is very difficult.

I've seen very few of Steve Martin's movies, which includes PENNIES FROM HEAVEN. Sounds like I should see it for the cast and those musical numbers. Nothing in particular against him, but unlike apparently the rest of humanity, I was never much taken with him. That changed over the years, and I've enjoyed catching up on a few of his films. I especially love DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS, and LEAP OF FAITH has grown on me.

My favorite Steve Martin film is his Cyrano take, Roxanne.

Now I am in the mood to watch this again.

Good.

[Ginny]

Saturday afternoon greetings!  We've already had one downpour and more rain is expected for the next several days.

We're having the same battle, DR Jane...

Nice to get some good news!

Topsy-Turvy is brilliant. I am so enjoying this. Forgot how good the entire cast, including Shirley Henderson and Kevin McKidd, are.

There's so much accurate about this film I still wonder why he made one of the characters (Grossmith?) a drug addict.

In an interview in the extras of Naked, he said that shocked a lot of people, and he believes it is largely because it suggested that nothing backstage has changed much through the years.

Watching the deleted scenes and extras, and then maybe a bootleg of Our Island Home, a musical Gilbert wrote with Thomas German Reed. I don't know anything about it.

With the shorter distance it will be easier for you to see your granddaughter.  I also gather there is a yard you can sit in once there, something we won't have.

It gets harder with each month as she gets older.

I'm up, I'm up - eight and a half hours of sleep.  Straight through.

Looks fun.

Costco run is complete. Got out for less than I expected.

[John G.]

Now watching a hilarious short film from Mike Leigh starring a very young Jim Broadbent. It's called A Sense of History and it's a merciless satire of the British nobility. Think of an anti-Downton Abbey.

Perhaps later today. I'm watching the last of the extras. After that, a nap.

I received this as a gift from the lovely TCB some years ago. I shall have to revisit it. It is a wonderful movie
