But in the dark, you need a flare.


Would Sondheim have approved of using both flare and flair?

They’re their.

What was your favorite, MichaelG?

My favorite was Le charme discret de la bourgeoisie. I think that came in 4th.

I’d agree with you of those. I haven’t seen the top film. But I think Charm is better than 2 and 3.

See it! According to JustWatch it's available under its English title Summertime on Kanopy for free, and Apple / Amazon for rental. This is Catherine Corsini's film, not others with the same name. Now I need to go see Highest 2 Lowest.

Worked on the manuscript - I think she got impatient in the last three chapters - I just had to stop correcting and move along. I can finish tonight.

Unless I'm misreading, looks like books have shipped - fastest turnaround ever.

DRJANE found a dog friend at the Pfister Hotel.


Lol, that I did.  I couldn't get him to sit back up for the photo.  He is a sweet, Friendly,  big boy. 
But it's still a really nice photo!

Thank you.

I had a bit of a nap today watching  Bad Boys 2.  We were at a movie theater with reclining seats and trays, where you order the food and it is delivered to you.

  Keith and I aren't good at putting stuff together.   He has learned over the years and is now much better at it. Still, he does not like doing it. 

It doesn't ever help that the directions are either in a foreign language or are undecipherable hieroglyphics.

Oh my, that is not helpful at all.

  Is that the view from your home?

No, but there are views like that all around here.

I have always thought there was a business to be made in dog rentals. For when you want to spend a day with a dog, but don't want the full-time responsibility. Come to think of it, though, that would be hard on the dogs.

After the movie we went to a very nice, large arcade with a bowling alley.  Keith played Skee Ball with me :)

After the games we went to a Organ Pipes Pizza Palace.  Check out the organ at organpipepizza.com.

If you visit Best Friends in Utah I belive there are dogs that can be "checked out" for a sleep-over.

I wish I could share the photo of me walking the cat.  Since Freyja is also in the photo I am not permitted to make it public.

Just finished the novel Go As a River, by Shelley Read. It was enjoyable, if not especially original.

It was cute though, Keith started to take my photo with the cat and Freyja rushed over to be in it with me :)
