BK, you never answered the Ask BK question what you want Santa to bring you for Christmas.  Remember, the sky is the limit because it is all fantasy anyway.

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.

Well, I need to go to bed.  Tomorrow morning, I gave an earlier than usual meeting for which I CANNOT be late, so I can't stay up as late as I usually do.

Good night, Tom.

TOD: I binged on some youtube videos while my foot was on ice. I watched people garden, cook, treat sore ankles, make crafts, etc.

I didn't watch much TV, even on DVD, but I did like the first seasons of both Poldark and A Place to Call Home.

Guess I'll see Moonlight after all. That was high praise indeed.

I had lots of dreams, but all I remember is something vague in which I made some comment about the unsuspected/unexpected private lives of public figures we think we know,

Today is a Joshie day at City Center.  We'll look over a mess I'm trying to decipher, I hope there's some proofreading of digitized scores, and he wanrs to talk through a song he has to orchestrate.  I'll bring some work home with me, since Joshie leaves for Vermont tomorrow and returns on the 27th.

Last night I began a quirky police drama-comedy Vexed, which stars Maggie Smith's son Toby Stephens and Lucy Punch, a pretty actress who played a very memorable spoiled rich girl who dies a nasty death on Midsomer Murders several years ago. The handsome Stephens, who usually plays brooding serious men like Rochester in Jane Eyre, is a very funny actor.

I'm ready to go back to bed.  My cold is finally working its way out, and I feel okay, just not quite awake yet.

DR JohnG, I like the Christmas musicals idea very much.  I think I may do that on Saturday, although I do find Here's Love a painful effort.

Thursday morning greetings!  It's another friend day for me - Sue, my former Dayton co-worker, is coming to town for lunch and a chat about cataract surgery.

I left out A Christmas Carol. I, too, don't care for a lot of Here's Love. Especially "She Had to Go Back."
