Four!

Tomorrow is the funeral. Those vibes would be greatly appreciated.

And xylophones.

Otherwise, it could be like that funeral farce with Peter Dinklage, who starred in both the original and the remake.

Done about thirty pages and will do another ten when I return - I really don't think I'll stay tonight, as I want to write more and I have to be up early tomorrow morning.

Can’t remember the name. Was it Death at the Funeral? Sounds like a murder mystery.

Death at a Funeral

I went to Richard, my hairdresser, today. He sold his salon last month--the lease was up and the rent increased by 20%! A group of young hairdressers bought it and plan to play rap music, among other things. Richard decided to bow out and is now working at a salon in Marina del Rey.

I prefer small salons, where I get more personal attention. The new salon is mid-sized and very noisy. Everyone was very friendly, though.

The Marina is nice. Was parking easier?

funnily, no. You may know the shopping center, between Glencoe and Lincoln, just south of the movie theatres on Maxella. I hadn't been there in several years. There's both a Pavilion's and a Von's, so even though the parking lot is huge, I had to really hunt for an empty space. Just then I spotted a Tesla leaving.

Not really. We have stayed at hotels there & walked around the area. The parking didn't seem to bad in the strip malls, but as I said we were walking.

Jeanne are you still scheduled for your surgery this month? What is the date? Vibes all goes as planned this time, and it is successful.

Thank you, no, that was rescheduled for March. I'm fine with March, as I have really minimal discomfort from the problem at this point.

That is good news you are pleased with the new time. I just hope they stop rescheduling you.

You have them. That is when all the control you have been maintaining breaks down. Sending vibes & hugs.

We are about to watch Maleficent.

John G. · « **Reply #103 on:** January 03, 2020, 07:18:11 PM »

Good night, all.

George · « **Reply #104 on:** January 03, 2020, 07:42:38 PM »

I'm off. Time to head home.

Until later.

If "The King and I" had an animated version, why shouldn't "West Side Story?"

More vibes for Jrand's nephew.

They haven't "now" changed the rules - it's been that way for years.

I have an Amazon VISA credit card on which I charge over $1000.00 every month. I earn Amazon credit points with each purchase, but I guess they don't count that.

You must have a LOT of reward points!

I do.

And, because of that, Amazon penalizes me by not letting me review on their site.

Doesn't seem right.

Druxy · « **Reply #108 on:** January 03, 2020, 08:24:36 PM »

We signed up for Netflix today.

Watched THE TWO POPES tonight.

Not sure whether we'll continue beyond the first free month, but we'll see.

Jane · « **Reply #109 on:** January 03, 2020, 10:29:01 PM »

Did you like the movie?

bk · « **Reply #110 on:** January 03, 2020, 11:09:55 PM »

I made the pre-show speech, watched the first ten minutes of the show - as always on Friday nights, the energy seemed slightly sluggish and the audience was laughing but quietly, so I took my leave.

I stopped at Gelson's for some light snacks and came home.

bk · « **Reply #112 on:** January 03, 2020, 11:10:30 PM »

And I've been writing ever since - forty-three pages today.

Good evening.

bk · « **Reply #114 on:** January 04, 2020, 12:02:51 AM »

Um, no, I don't think so.

bk · « **Reply #115 on:** January 04, 2020, 12:03:02 AM »

Just no. Absolutely not.

TCB · « **Reply #116 on:** January 04, 2020, 12:03:04 AM »

Page 4? Still?

TCB · « **Reply #117 on:** January 04, 2020, 12:04:49 AM »

Yesterday, I watched MARY POPPINS RETURNS. I thought the film was delightful. It was much better than I expected.

TCB · « **Reply #118 on:** January 04, 2020, 12:05:49 AM »

It would have been better with Sherman Brothers music, but I thought it was really good.

TCB · « **Reply #119 on:** January 04, 2020, 12:06:12 AM »

And I would think that children would love it.
