Has anyone read Jasper Fforde? I'm thinking of trying one of his novels. They sound rather wacky--in a fun way.

I haven't.

Surprise, surprise, surprise.

You may recall the young couple living in the apartment next door who were soooooo loud, with their frequent little parties and the ineffective building manager who hadn't a clue. They MOVED OUT! I never thought I'd see it. It's quite a bargain to live here, by outrageous LA housing standards. I must not have paid my grapevine dues, as I didn't know until yesterday. I had noticed that He would often leave about 9:30 or 10:00 at night, then return about 30 minutes later. Night after night. I figured he was meeting his dealer. But every night?? Now I know. I have no details, but I hope they found a building with other noisy folks so that they can be themselves, have their friends over, without bothering others. They most definitely bothered us. Some people are just incapable of being quiet.

I am thrilled for you.  MEGA VIBES YOU HAVE NICE, QUIET, NEW NEIGHBORS!

Ditto and DITTO!! ;D

I'm off, now.  Tonight is another rehearsal for The Alphabet Caper reading, and I want to be there. 

Be back later.

Maybe it is him DR VIXMOM.


He's about 30 yeas too young, maybe it's his son

Had a really fun rehearsal.  Our little gal is still sick, so I steered clear as much as possible and I'm popping the preventatives regularly.

Then I picked up packages and went and had matzoh ball soup, which was very soothing.

I just had a nice phone chat with my brother.  He always wants me to suggest detective shows he hasn't seen.  I was surprised when recommended I watch the movie "Lost in Paris".  Has anyone seen it?

The first was the best and they slid downhill after that.

I really like the new book cover. I like it the best of all the Hofstetters, in fact.

I am in agreement.

I think it's great.

It's based on a British series. Bruce Davidson, Andrew McCarthy and Diane Ladd are in it.

It's funny, because the credits say it's based on a British series, The Kingdom. Then back of the box says it's based on a Lars Von Trier series from Denmark. So, I guess it's based on both.

Work wife Krista was able to take one of her twins, Eli, home yesterday. The girl, Olive, is still in NICU and will likely be there at least another week. But she's doing well.

How many of Andre Previn's film scores have you released, BK? I know Two for the Seesaw was one.

Two for the Seesaw, The Fortune Cookie, All in a Night's Work come to mind - can't remember if that's it or not.
