First reading - cold soup for dinner that was settling in your lungs.

I must concentrate and not skim!!

Today we saw The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada. If you have been reading the reviews for this film, we pretty much agreed with them-excellent film.

Speaking of agreeing with reviews, last night we watch a Japanese film which is still haunting me, NOBODY KNOWS. It is a completely fictional account, inspired by the story of four children who were abandoned by their mother and had to fend for themselves. The young actor who plays the oldest brother won Best Actor at the Cannes festival in 2004.

'night.

Pretty uneventful day. Read through the ... in the absence of Spring... script again. Wow - it's a really good play. I find more and more to admire in it each time. I'm so glad I get to do it!!

Wrote some, exercised some, ate some... read a bit of Ram Dass. Sat in the sun - oh, la! Whatta blue, blue sky! Made a big salad with everything in it for dinner. now just listening to some New Age Music on Music Choice and writing to y'all.

Sleepy - boy, sitting in the sun seems to do it. I'll make it an early night.

Maria - i enjoyed the photos of your day! Especially the flowers. Always the flowers. Or trees. Or horses. Today, it was the flowers.

PennyO, I am sorry that I won't get to attend the reading.

It has been a long day for Bosco and I! We drove to Aumsville this morning and had Easter breakfast at my neice and her husband's house (sister and Brother in law joined us...not that we were coming apart, mind you!). Bosco got to meet his little cousin Piper who proceeded to harrass him at every opportunity!

Then Bosco and I drove up to West Linn and had Easter lunch at Mark and James's house. Our friend Terry and his three kids came down from Vancouver and we all had a great time. Bosco met his other cousin Digger. We all went to the park in Lake Oswego after lunch and walked the dogs around the river.

Bosco is now crashed out on the bedroom floor and I am going to crash on the couch and watch some TV!

I finshed RENT early this evening and then replayed the three or four songs that I particularly like. I'm not sure I'll actually watch the movie all the way through many more times since there's a lot of music I just don't care for, but thankfully, one can skip right to the songs he enjoys, and that's what I'll probably do in the future.

Then, I put in the first HARRY POTTER film which I haven't watched in awhile. Apart from seeing all the series regulars when they were much younger, I picked up some information this time through that I hadn't known (or remembered) before. For example, that there's a phoenix feather in Harry's wand just like there is in Valdemort's wand, one of the things that links them.

Only got about an hour in, so I'll enjoy finishing it tomorrow.

COLD CASE had a death row case that brought back memories of the poignant IN JUSTICE episode from a couple of months ago that touched me so deeply. This one not only missed that mark, but the real murderer was obvious from the get-go, so a disappointing episode all around.

Matt H. · « **Reply #159 on:** April 16, 2006, 08:16:34 PM »

I really enjoyed DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES tonight. I liked all the stories, found them interesting, funny, or engrossing (apply proper adjective where appropriate).

Matt H. · « **Reply #160 on:** April 16, 2006, 08:18:02 PM »

CROSSING JORDAN had a couple of interesting cases, too. One involving a major league baseball player accused of rape (some surprising twists in this story) and one involving an airman found frozen in an ice floe for 55 years. Enjoyed the show tonight.

Beautiful birds Tom!! Thanks for sharing...

I have never watched CROSSING JORDAN, but the previews for tonight looked interesting. I think I will stick to FIREFLY instead.

The parrots remind me of another recommendation - THE WILD PARROTS OF TELEGRAPH HILL, a truly wonderful documentary. I saw the docu and was raving about it to everyone I met. About a week later, I attended the Genesis Awards (BTW - I got a postcard yesterday saying the the awards will be broadcast on Animal Planet on Sat. May 6, 2 pm PT/5 pm ET - the animal lovers among you would enjoy it) - to get back to my point - and discovered that I was sharing a table with Mark Bittner, the subject of the film and Judy Irving, the director! It was terrific to be able to tell them how much I'd enjoyed the film. Here's a photo of us from that evening...

That is a wonderful documentary.. It looks like you had a lovely day..

Ole everybody! My name's, "Louise"; what's yours?

Alright, it's not Louise, but Ole! just the same.

Happy Passover! Happy Easter! Many jelly beans to all-- not the spice kind or black ones, but the fruit jelly beans. Peeps for one and all!

Ms Shiksa Blue Moon and her master, both wearing hats for Easter Day.

She's done been in her parade, though.

Lovely picture. She truly is a beautiful dog

I'm back from my parents' house. We all went there for dinner and dessert, but I didn't have much of anything. I can't taste. I hate (yes, HATE) it when I get to this point in a cold.

George · « **Reply #168 on:** April 16, 2006, 09:07:19 PM »

~~~Vibes to EVERYONE who need them much more than I do!!~~~

(I know I only have a whimpy little cold.)

JRand Blue Moon look very cute in their matching hats. Actually Moon looks rather indifferent to the hat.

Maria the flowers are cheery on this rainy, snow flurried day.

Cillaliz I’m impressed you revived your lap-top.

Don't be too impressed. I haven't rebooted it yet, it could be dead again tomorrow. And I still can't post on the board from the new laptop. I haven't figured that one out. It must be some setting, but I can log in everywhere else....hmmmm

Here's something else to stare at. Buddy Collette's Swinging Shepherds. Not too many people tried the jazz flute combo.

I used to play jazz flute. On the c-flute and the alto. I loved it. I've never seen this before, I'd love to hear the combo

Well, I must go to sleep. I have tomorrow off, but it's going to start early with breakfast with Paul and then my brother and sister in law are coming here at 10:00AM for a concert that starts at 8:00pm..... I don't think they want me to entertain them all day...I hope not anyway, I still have a lot to do and Callie has a vet appointment at 2:20Pm.

Lovely bears, Tomovoz!

And now, I must do the Sick Wussburger and go to sleep. Good night!

Looks like the teddy bears had a great Easter picnic.
