Jose I had heard about something or the same as the pee-mate & have been trying to find it for a friend of mine.  Once she was stuff in an LA traffic jam for hours and now always travels with a jar in her car.;D

Swishy Sara it is always a delight catching up with your life.  :)

I still have loads to do before we begin our journey to Romania tomorrow.  The excitement is building.:D
By the time we see Craig it will have been 8 ½ months since we last saw him-far too long.

I'm back from an interesting film, THE BEAT MY HEART SKIPPED, or DE BATTRE MON COEUR S'EST ARRETE, with an interesting cast led by the quirkily handsome Romain Duris.  I feared the film was going to turn into a French GOLDEN BOY (GARCON D'OR?), but it kept me amused, curious, and concerned.  I also saw previews for three films I now want to see:
BALZAC AND THE LITTLE CHINESE SEAMSTRESS
MUSIC FROM THE INSIDE OUT: musicians in the Philadelphia Orchestra
OPERATION: DREAMLAND: about American soldiers stationed in Iraq

Next week:  JUNEBUG!

Good Evening!

Funny how now that my niece and nephew have gotten older, that it's me who takes the afternoon nap!  -I guess I did get "older" just over a week ago.

DR elmore - I want to see "The Beat My Heart Skipped" too since it's a piano-centric movie.  I vaguely remember the American original, and I've heard such good things about this "remake" - which was done in "reverse" as it were - a French remake of an American original instead of the other way around!  -However, everyone seems to agree that the French version is better - like it always is.

:)

And I noticed that "Balzac..." is playing at that small Art House up by Central Park South, right behind the Plaza - or whatever the Plaza is now or soon will be called.  Maybe we can catch it together once I'm back up there this week.

All right, where in tarnation IS everyone?

I have been busy bonding with a troubled teen.

A new attendee at our church brought her teenage grandson (who lives at The Home For Incorigible Teenagers) to church with her this morning. He was rather sullen when he arrived. I knew from the grandmother that he was being trained in desert horticulture at The Home For Incorigible Teenagers, so I asked him about some of our plants that are struggling. We made the rounds around the property and he offered advice. After the service, he came to me and said that some of our cacti were planted too deep and that he would like to dig them up and replant. So after changing into grubby clothes, we went back and he spent the afternoon replanting and then digging holes with a pick to plant some of the things that still were waiting to be planted. Then he offered to come tomorrow morning at 6 am to finish the rest. This from an incorigible teenager, who seems like a pretty swell kid to me.  His grandmother said she hadn't seen him smile so big in quite a long time.

And that is why I was gone all day.

Yes, indeedy!  It's based on a Harvey Keitel film, FINGERS, which I've never seen, and you should definitely see the French film.  It's quite good.   The actress who plays the pianist from Beijing is really wonderful, but the who cast is quite interesting.

I took a nice drive.  Surprising amount of people driving around - usually Labor Day weekend turns LA into a ghost town, but you wouldn't know it from the nincompoops driving around, cell phones to their ears, or minds just up their rectal cavities.  I was driving down the street, three blocks from my home, when someone just ran a stop sign.  I missed hitting the idiot's car by one inch and then this mongoloid flips me off - that was that, and I turned and followed him, tail-gaited him, hoping he'd pull over.  He didn't, because his head was up his rectal cavity.

I barbequed a rack of "St. Louis Style" ribs; had some steamed rice, buttered broccoli.  The End.

I am sporting a white tee-shirt from Hawaii and blue jean shorts.

Ah, DR SwishySarah was hanging around my old stomping grounds.  Well, near my old stomping grounds at least.

I almost applied one year to be one of the instructors at the Governor's School for the Arts, but, like Sarah mentioned, you do sort of live in a bubble for those three to four weeks.  Even the instructors are required to live on campus, and they are not allowed to take leave for anything but family emergencies.  I do understand the reasoning behind the requirement, but I just could not see myself being a "student" again for four weeks.

BUT, it is a great program, and kudos to DR Swishy for, first of all, being accepted to the program, and, secondly, for having such a good time while she was there.

Hmm... I guess the stars must be aligned properly...  I just got another offer for another show!  Yes, it's a small show, and I'm already booked during the period that it runs so I wouldn't be able to take it anyway, but it was still an offer nonetheless.  ;)

*I did check my horoscope - just for fun since it's been a while - and the general forecast for me and my fellow Virgos is that things are starting to look up.  After the yearly "turbulence" of the late August sky, things are starting to calm down.  Onward and upward!
